The closest thing Warfork has to a sniper rifle, Electrobolt is primarily a damage-dealing tool that requires practice and precision.

It might be a good idea to funnel opponent into a certain area so you can have easier time aiming, either by waiting at various bottlenecks in maps or by boxing them in with area-of-effect weapons.  Knockback from explosive weapons can also be used to immobilize or launch opponent in predictable trajectory, setting them up for an Electrobolt shot.

Due to its amazing speed and damage, Electrobolt may be difficult to challenge. It is however just as punishing if the shooter misses as the weapon has long refire time. Use this lull to close in on opponent or to retreat. Be aware that the shooter can simply swap to other weapons.

Another way to prevent the use of Electrobolt is to stop the opponent from getting the pickup to begin with. The Electrobolt and its ammo are often placed in distinct, far off areas in most maps, making it easier to deny access or steal the items away from the opponent.

Take advantage of the opponents reload time, since the gamemode doesn't allow any other weapons it's a good time to line up a shot.
