Ice Spikes is a burst damage AoE spell that [[mage | mages]] use to combat groups of earth or fire element monsters. It deals a single hit of high damage with moderate mana consumption and low cooldown. However, it has a shorter radius than [[Lightning Bolt]] and [[Spike Trap]], being prone to miss if using it against a monster that likes to move a lot. It is one of two AoE skills apart from [[Blizzard]] which mages that focus on water skills will choose from.

One advantage is the fact that Ice Spikes can reach the max skill level of 6 much sooner, while Blizzard can only reach up to level 5 (Lv. 6 is unlocked at level 42, which the level cap is 40 currently), yielding a higher amount of DPS in a short time.

Skill Usage

Ice Spikes is a burst damage AoE spell that mages use to combat groups of earth or fire element monsters. It deals a single hit of high damage with moderate mana consumption and low cooldown. However, it has a shorter radius than Lightning Bolt and Spike Trap, being prone to miss if using it against a monster that likes to move a lot. It is one of two AoE skills apart from Blizzard which mages that focus on water skills will choose from.

One advantage is the fact that Ice Spikes can reach the max skill level of 6 much sooner, while Blizzard can only reach up to level 5 (Lv. 6 is unlocked at level 42, which the level cap is 40 currently), yielding a higher amount of DPS in a short time. But due to it's lack of range and single burst, there is a three second off-time because of the cooldown, thus Blizzard has more DPS over a long period of time and a bigger range.
