Airstrike is a useful spell for elemental specialists who lack the means to deal with enemies immune to their attacks. [[Cloud]]-producing spells may match its accuracy and exceed its power, but they lack precision. It's also useful for summoners, as they can fire past their summoned creatures without fear, and it is lethal to most flying nuisances, like [[harpy|harpies]]. | Airstrike is a useful spell for elemental specialists who lack the means to deal with enemies immune to their attacks.

Strategy
Airstrike is a useful spell for elemental specialists who lack the means to deal with enemies immune to their attacks. Cloud-producing spells may match its accuracy and exceed its power, but they lack precision. It's also useful for summoners, as they can fire past their summoned creatures without fear, and it is lethal to most flying nuisances, like harpies.
