No, I meant one shot. Like a cannon. Except you can reload a cannon in a minute, but depending on how much fighting has gone on before the bolt, he's wiped after the first shot. Maybe he can muster the energy to fight hand to hand again in urgent circumstances, but more than likely he's gonna be useless after the first shot. Also, remember that the sword is required, and each shot disarms him.

Edit: Plus, making that sword also cost him 3 years off his life, so he's not throwing it unless he knows he can pick it back up.
