Dancing Edge and Accuracy linked?

Well, i heard this from a JP thf, one of the best on the server saying having a scorp harness and sniper rings will give you your best dancing edge

So my question is "Is dancing edge linked with Dex like most have always said or Accuracy?"

I always make sure to have my accuracy equips on when I'm doing satade. The "ZOMG!! That was awesome!!!!" hits only come when I connect with at least 4/5, and I cant' do that without lots of acc gear and/or lots of tp.

Depends on what you are fighting. If it's VT or higher, +acc helps dancing edge more because landing all 5 hits will give you more damage than lots of +attack and +dex and then missing like 2 of the hits.

On lower level things, though, you can ditch some +acc for +dex and +attack for more damage instead. (like when you are farming)

You really dont need to use accuracy for the WS, but for gaining TP its a good idea.

Using Harness, Lifebelt, snipers etc for gaining TP, then switching to Cotehardie, Dex Rings, whatever (warwolf belt if of level). With that I've seen Thf's doing 1100-1300 DE's around lvl 65. It was actually first PT I had doing constant Chain 6's on flies in boyhada.

That same Thf is also now the only Thf on the server with TH4 atm.

You definitely want to have as much +ACC as possible for Dancing Edge. STR, DEX and ATK will improve your damage, but that doesn't help if you miss 3-4 of the hits every time.

When fighting T or lower, you will probably deal more damage with an all out STR, DEX and ATK set up, though.
