 '''Shock''' is a level 1 [[Conjurations]]/[[Air Magic]] spell which fires a bolt of [[electricity]], piercing through any number of targets in its range. When it hits a wall, Shock will reflect off the wall, allowing you to potentially [[doublezap|hit an opponent twice]], or hit opponents at an angle. Each hit from this spell ignores 1/2 of the target's [[AC]].
-Shock can reflect off most solid features, including rock / stone / crystal / unbreakable [[wall]]s, inanimate [[statue]]s, and closed [[door]]s. Shock ''cannot'' reflect off metal walls, [[iron grates]], or trees.

-Shock reflects off of rock or stone [[wall]]s, crystal walls, and even closed doors, allowing it to hit multiple enemies [[multizap|multiple times]] for double damage. Unfortunately, it is noticeably less accurate than spells of similar level and power, making it far less useful against single opponents without multizapping.

-*You are NOT immune to your own reflected Shock spell. Be aware that it may be difficult to cast this against foes in cramped quarters (the game warns you if you are about to accidentally shoot yourself).
+''See also: [[Doublezap]]''
-*When dealing with single opponents, it is often best to try to maneuver them into a position where you can [[multizap]] them, to compensate for the spell's low accuracy and damage.
