More powerful than an Ice Blast, this is the offensive spell of choice for a higher-level Sorceress seeking a quick deathblow. The Sorceress who wields this spell will find herself often treading over the shattered and frozen remains of her opponents.
Glacial Spikes are ~33% or 1/3 faster than Ice Bolts and Ice Blasts, but are the same size. Although Ice Blasts apply more damage to a single target, Glacial Spikes can damage (and freeze) multiple targets within their radius of effect, which can result in greater damage per second against multiple targets.

Glacial Spike
Explosion is centered on point of impact rather than target, so only first Succubus is damaged and frozen since the second is centered outside explosion radius.
Range is sufficient to hit any target visible on 800 x 600 screen.
