Skill DesignEdit

Hopefully soon to be revealed, but the wording of the skill is enough to fuel some speculation. It is described as "mechanical contraptions" whereas Spike Trap is clearly labeled as a trap. As it is a trap, there are only a certain number of them allowed in the playing field at any time. Perhaps the wording of Shock Spike is written so as to avoid it being a trap with such limitations placed on it.

Skill Rank TableEdit

• Rank 1: Place up to X mechanical contraptions on the ground. The contraptions spin and deal X-X damage to all nearby enemies. The contraptions also generate sawblades between them that deal damage to enemies in their path.

Trait SynergiesEdit

• No synergies with any of the traits are yet known.

Skill Rune EffectsEdit

• No rune effects for Shock Spike are known.

DevelopmentEdit

Shock Spike was first revealed at BlizzCon 2010 where it could be seen in the Demon Hunter's skill pane.
