I do agree with the first suggestion. What more, even though I do play ghost, I did not even know that such was a thing. It was probably not intended. The seconds on is fine as well, and I completely agree with you. However, I do not think the cost of Blood Spike should be increased, as it would leave the skill completely overshadowed by twister. Twister offers far more utility for the cost of just 2% more HP, despite the range - one you get only after going dangerously low on HP anyhow. Likewise, the argument that it needs to be nerfed just because River Sword exists is completely insane.

Blood Spike as already stated does a ton of damage, even more than a lot of invocations would, its utility over twister would be the larger amount of damage, these skills already snipe you across the map.
