    The way they worded it messed with me since they were talking about white magic right before it, I assumed everything after "black magic" would be, ya know, black magic related.
    , even the way you read it, there's nothing wrong with what was written, because of the key words "As well as..." making it read as "black magic spells in addition to also having <list of white magic>"

    I'll be honest, the first time I read through that portion, I got a little bit confused as well. It took me about 4 reads before I understood what the author of that article was trying to convey when he was listing the spells that rune fencer gets. I think my problem is that I've never heard them referred to as "black magic spikes" before, so my mind got stuck on that part trying to rationalize it.

    At one point my mind even convinced me the author meant "spikes" as in "large, rapid increase in damage", which I then converted into "black magic nukes" thinking the author was stupid for putting it that way. Then I finally understood it and still thought it was a weird way to structure the sentence.
