Lightning Strike projectiles Accuracy

if i am building a lightning striker that only uses the ranged portion of lightning strike, does that mean i dont need any accuracy even if i am crit?

"Cannot Miss: This applies only to the projectiles launched after you initiated the strike. Swinging in enemies' general direction will result in projectiles with a hit/miss chance equal to that of the skill itself. Projectiles that miss will be dissipated without doing damage."

You still need accuracy just like normal. That section of the wiki page refers to this part of the skill description itself: "The projectiles cannot miss if the melee attack hit its target." So if you connect with the melee attack your projectiles will also always hit, but since you aren't using it at all there is no special behaviour going on. That said, you'd need accuracy regardless to make sure the melee strike hits.
