Do mystic bolts require humanoid form to use? I know the class spells would require still/silent spell etc, but beyond "mystic bolt requires the hand to be free" I can't see any restriction on form for using the ability. Are there general rules that apply to abilities like this?
Basically, am able to use mystic bolts in animal form, just forms that have "hands" or just in humanoid forms?

Not 100% sure, but since it says "...requires the hand to be free.." that could imply that it depends on your original form (since a wolf doesn't have any "hands", for instance).
While under the effects of a polymorph spell, you lose all extraordinary and supernatural abilities that depend on your original form (such as keen senses, scent, and darkvision), as well as any natural attacks and movement types possessed by your original form.
Mystic Bolts are listed as a Supernatural ability that requires a free hand so if you assume the free hand thing is a form requirement, then it wouldn't work.
I would probably say any form similar enough to your own that has hands would work. So pretty much any humanoid if you are a standard race should be ok. Of course your DM has final say.
