Accuracy ....

[Wings of Icarus]

I have 39 Accuracy ATM when not using Vassago's scythe ....

SO, anyhow, I'm at Boyahda Tree xping ... this time without a bard... I looked at my parser logs... on one battle against a darter, my accuracy was 10% ... wtf ?

I have 2X Sniper Rings
Life Belt
Assault Earring
Ryl Kgt. Mufflers
Haubergeon
& RYL Kgt neckpiece with ACC + 4

I might be leaving something out... anyhow ... if I have all this accuracy boost and I get 10 % accuracy ... WTF does that leave drks with nowhere near my acc ?

From my Logs, other Melee seem to have no real trouble hitting the mob... wtf is up here ?

I still miss like hell if I don't ABS-DEX & ABS-AGI Processionaires also ....

Help me out!

What am I doing wrong? ACC + 39 (44 with Vassago's, but I'm using GS for Light Renkai), ATT + 53 ...

Any of you had problems hitting the mobs at Boyahda Tree at lvl 66 ?

[Vittra]

If you're fighting Darters at 66 or 67 then I think they could just be too high, if they're IT++ then your acc won't impact that greatly. Steelshells are still VT-IT at that level and you could chain them like crazy, I remember seeing 68-69 groups fighting Darters at least.

[Drynavere]

Aye the above poster nailed the spot. No matter what level and how much accuracy you have, if you are fighting IT's with high eva/def, then your chances of hitting have just halved in the first place.

To think of it in a comparison term, take this example:

If you were shooting an arrow with a bow at a target that was 20 feet infront of you (an even match let's say), chances are your going to hit it if you have any skill at all with a bow. (This is real life, not the game).

However, if you move that target back (increasing the difficulty of the 'mob' to IT++) say another 80 feet, then your chances of hitting it are going to be horrible.

Now I was just going on an imagination run with that one, but let's face it. No matter how much accuracy you have, and how much dex you have and absorb, either way your going to have shit for accuracy in the end if your fighting something thats 10 levels higher than you.

Accuracy makes no real difference when the mobs are way higher than you are. I remember having about +50 accuracy and still whiffing almost every swing on ITs unless I had a BRD. Against ITs, I notice no difference between having +50 accuracy and +35 accuracy. Because of this I sold my overpriced Sniper's rings and got Ruby rings instead. Your level in relation to the monster makes the difference, not the amount of accuracy items you have. The other melee classes were probably one or two levels higher than you were. It makes all the difference.

This is why I laugh when I hear people say "I have +50 accuracy and I still don't hit as often as I would like to" or what's the other dumb line? Oh yeah. "you can never have too much accuracy".

Reading all this has made me wonder... currently, I'm fighting Velociraptors in Valley of Sorrows for EXP, with +30 Accuracy without Vassago's, they con Incredibly Touph with low evasion and defense. ...I know that at some point in the future (i'm lvl 60) I'll fight Torama, I've been told many times they have nasty evasion, is +30 Accuracy enough to deal with those? I don't have much problem hitting Raptors most of the time....

Toramas have really high evasion. No matter how much accuracy you have, unless you're level 64 (the level before when the exp is dead), you won't be hitting them often by yourself. Make good friends with a BRD.

Hmm that's strange I'm barely lvl 62 and It feels like I hit toramas more than I use to hit raptors...maybe i'm just imagining things though :sweat:

[dworkin]

im really frustrated with the hitting slumps. it seems like during 1 part of the fight i may hit the mob like mad, near middle notta, then when its close to the end i dont have any problems hitting the mobs again. but last night i had the worst time every in a pt. on 1 robber crab i only hit it 3 times the whole fight an it was a very long fight...

Parser Log whats this? Ps2 have this? The only way im able to know how much aCC I have is by adding them up my self and I know im off most/all the time.

[Crowzukin]

I've come to think that the +5 acc from Sniper Rings and such probably don't add up to jack shit. I'm willing to bet the acc bonus from Madrigal is like at least +50 or something.

[kumaeru]

Yes Brd songs are probably a lot higher. I heard that Fenrir's +Accuracy howl is around +20 Accuracy

i think brd songs and fenrir howl add something like +[? %] not 20 or 50 to accuracy
maybe its like berserk add 20~% ?

Madrigal is random +% ACC, however I am told the first form is much less than second, so it is not that great to stack them as opposed to stacking Minuets. Fenrir's move is based on moon phases, heres the specifics:

It appears you get the most ACC bonus during a Full Moon.

[Brothershadow]

Should I?

Hmmmm...you all are very powerful if not high level. So I know
your input on this will be valid. I hit 44 DRK last night and was
considering getting a Sniper ring (none as of yet) but have the
450k to purchase one. I also know that the Life Belt is right around the corner. What concerns me is I've heard this said once before in another thread by 2.0 above, about people aquiring way too much accuracy items that dont mean jack, and I feel she may be right. Should I get one or no?44DRK

Thanks :confused:
