Dual-casting question
I heard that when you dual-cast it will cost twice the mana, what about holding fireballs in each hand (separate casts) and doing sort of a "machine gun fireball" thing? XD

Re: Dual-casting question
Then I am guessing that each press of the trigger will cost the amount of mana for one fireball cast... Really, though, how is anyone supposed to answer speculative questions like this?

Re: Dual-casting question
My personal guess is that if you do the "machine gun", shooting separate fireballs from each hand, the magicka cost will be the same, but if you click both buttons at the same time you'll shoot a mega-fireball that costs more.

Re: Dual-casting question
This shouldn't have been a question. We've already been told how the system works, why would a fireball cost more when it's fired just after another? Answer: It shouldn't and won't.
If your question is: will you be able to do the machine gun?
Maybe. Remember you have to charge this spell for a short while before you can cast it, so it is not certain.
