Shocking Grasp and Elven Accuracy?

[Citadel97501]

Hello all, I was just wondering if anyone has worked out whether Shocking Grasp compares well with Booming Blade or Green Flame Blade especially after the changes to those cantrips? I was thinking that as this would provide a more reliable form of advantage to trigger elven accuracy, a critical fisher build would benefit from this? I don't think it would be stronger due to GFB & BB's riders, but just another option?

Notes: Twin Spell still works with Shocking Grasp but doesn't with GFB or BB.

I think it's really cool from a flavor perspective. Especially if you get access to it as a tempest cleric. You could probably even flavor or as lightning punches.

You are right though that it isn't as optimal as GFB or BB in terms of damage because you don't get the weapon damage.
