It's neat, sure, but an entire move that changes your main attack once from 290, to 330 because you did your positional correct is a little lackluster. 400 would probably get you to try as hard as possible, or at the very least care about "True North" more often than not.
Unless they have changed it since the last time I played DRG you only need to land the final positional to get Raiden Thrust to proc.

I personally hate positionals and don't feel they add anything to the game other than punishing you for the way fights are designed. True North and Earth's Reply are just band-aids to an archaic system I'd like to see gone in 6.0.
