It always hits. No matter what. It can be blocked, but it always hits.

ITD = ignore target defense.

Defense affects how often you will get hit, so if your opponent has ITD it won't matter if you have 100000000000000000000000000000000 defense, they will still always hit you no matter what.

No, ITD sets your enemys defense to 0, that way you have a 95% chance to hit (95% is max, even for smite) but if you are fightning monsters which have a higher LvL than you, your chance-to-hit will descrease even if you are using ITD.

ITD (from Jah rune or w/e) does not work in PvP or against bosses, so if GA is actually using ITD you will need AR. However it might be that GA works the same way as smite (with the differenece that you can't block smite), and therefor you have a 95% chance to hit, no matter how much AR you have // which cLvL you are, I don't know but I assume that is the case.

EDIT: Crushing Blow works with GA, but it does not pay off since it decreases a lot with ranged attacks.

Yea, it has ITD like smite. Essentially, unless you block it it's always going to hit

If you're maxing critical strike, you already have 70% chance for that. So thats one thing to consider. As far as ow go, it's reduced 1/8, so it'd only add an additional ~250 damage to a lvl 90 character. That another to consider.

don't forget this is going to be a low lvl dueler and she is only going to be lvl 25.. so you think deadly strike would be the best seeing that i won't be maxing out critical??

If you know anything about zons, you know deadly strike + crit strike do not mix. Don't make me explain it, I'm in a hurry.

You can pick your hand up now.
