Blue mage Meriting

[larrymc]

A.spikes / Q.Cont / Q.Strike are usually better the H.Strike unless your inside Abyssea with RR set. And you shouldn't be having acc issues inside Abysesa anyway.

I think its just a difference in playstyle. Inside Abby, VW, all the G1 merits are virtually meaningless because of atmas, temps, atmacites. If you use blu alot outside of these events as I do, then you want to focus on spells that do the most damage for minimal MP, and that is Heavy Strike by a huge margin, better than A.spikes, Q.Cont, and Q.Strike. MP conservation seems to be a lost art. I use A.spikes for skillchain with CDC primarily.
