Ich spüre deine ach so heftigen Schläge nicht mal!
What does "ach so" here mean? Does it add sarcasm to the sentence?

Yes, it is similar to "oh-so" in English.– wonderbearJun 16 at 19:14

You sensed it correctly, that ach so is a modal particle in that sentence. It belittles the effort.

why "modal particle" ? It is an extension of "so", which is a degree modifier for the adjective– AlazonJul 13 at 10:54
