Accuracy.

If you don't mind the slightly lower accuracy, then go for it, if you are one of those retards who want the higher power, but kick and scream about hax whenever you miss, then use fucking flamethrower and make it better for everyone

The same reason why you would choose Flamethrower of Fire Blast.

and miss 1hkos on important things like scizor and ferrothorn

160 SpA Salamence Flamethrower vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Ferrothorn: 288-340 (81.8 - 96.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

160 SpA Salamence Fire Blast vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Ferrothorn: 352-416 (100 - 118.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO

85% is sure better than 6.25%

We are talking about Heat Wave, where the extra 5 BP isn't worth the 10% accuracy. Unless you are OP and accidentally said heat wave in the op and meant fire blast.

Anyways like I said, if you want/need the extra fire power then go for fire blast. But don't kick and scream like a fucking baby when it misses. Don't use fire blast if you can't handle it.

It's not a random number; 160 EVs in Special Attack are the minimum required for a neutral-natured Salamence to OHKO standard physical Ferrothorn with Fire Blast.

It also isn't a common salamence build so using it doesn't have any significance.
