Shock Spikes is a Black Magic spell in Final Fantasy XI available to Black Mages starting at level 30 and then later to Red Mages at level 60. The spikes do an amount of damage contingent upon the caster's Enhancing Magic ability and the target's resistance to the Lightning element. Generally this spell will not do more than 15 damage per hit at level 75, and starts out much weaker than that.
In addition to doing physical damage, Shock Spikes have a chance of stunning anyone who successfully hits a creature with the spell active.
Red Mages wearing Duelist's Tights will have the effect of their spikes enhanced.
The following equipment occasionally will mimic the effect of Shock Spikes.
