At best, Spikes should come into action if you are grabbed or swallowed, or they should be a powerful Enchantment on your armor, not a simple addition. To get a view on current effects, there's a Spiked Jacket that allows you to automatically escape a grab and deal a few points of damage to an enemy as a daily item power.
