Heavy Strike low accuracy problem

Sneak Attack Heavy Strike...? >.> 100% acc and blu/thf seems perfectly acceptable in VW... Though the acc is crap and should be bumped up slightly.

The point of heavy strike was that it auto crits, levelling the playing field for our magic on higher level/defense targets. With the acc penalty, that use is nearly completely scrapped. If you're going to be gimping yourself by subbing THF, use a superior spell like Benthic Typhoon.

Even with "auto crit", if the acc is shit, then there's no real point in using it ever without sneak attack unless you just wanna try to get lucky and hope for that magical moment when the spell actually lands while fighting yer VWNMs. Until they boost the acc (which I doubt since they already lowered it), your best bet is CA Efflux SA Heavy Strike. Not that different from cannonball'ing Dark Ixion back when people would. (I do miss those 2k cannonballs...)
