Spike damage is concentrated damage, released on the shortest amount of time
let's take air spike, one of the first there was

you have 5-6 air eles, wich all do lightning orb at the same time.
you will need a countdown for that, so you need voice communication ( ts or vent )
if you spike good, the target is instakilled, impossible to heal
if you count the dmg done with spike and dmg done with pressure ( what you normally do ) , spike does less damage, but it doesn't get healed for that.

spikers try to out-res their opponent
once the other team has no more res signets, they kinda won...

hoped this fits a good answer

p.s. possible spike builds: air spike, ranger spike, feast of corruption spike, rainbow or mixed spike (using various professions )

Spike is One Shot >> One Kill .
One shot ( 4/5/6/7/8 Players target and attack at the same time to one player)

If you don't have one Open Slot or PvP Slot , you 're disadvantage.
Unless you are so rich and have 4/5 different Set of Armor for different builds.

blood spike with shadow strike + vamp gaze seems pretty big atm in HA.
