Re: Acashic records vs. separate spells
 

If you run into indie sorceresses, they are great manual site searchers. They usually have three to four paths, but rarely have more than 1 in any one path. So they are not much good for casting searches.

Do you mean enchantresses? Sorceresses are 2S2A, with some small chance of an extra path IIRC. They can remote search S or A just fine.
