The trade off isn't worth it for T13 but would be pretty good for maximizing damage on T11 and under.

Oh right. It was about 4 points per 1%, so yeah around 93.5% for the Pet. That's fine by me tbh, Garuda is getting lazy anyways.

Is 534 confirmed pet acc cap? I had heard it was 535 but created my BiS to only hit 534 because the secondary stat increases outweighs garuda missing an auto attack or two. If it is 534 then that is good news for me.

More OT: As far as Ironworks gears to buy the body is the best upgrade right out of the gate imo. While it doesn't provide an acc boost for T11+ it will help a lot for T10 which my group is killing post soft enrage atm so the added dps is welcome from it. The pants is a pretty good second bet depending on where your group is as far as progression, the ACC will help with the next couple of turns and there is no point in saving up for a weapon if you're not close to downing T12. You may just have to play it by ear depending on the drops you are able to receive (if you're lucky you'll get dreadwyrm feet and neck early on) and really just weigh ACC caps for the next turn VS. damage output on the current turn. There is no point in going for higher ACC if you aren't meeting the DPS checks on the turn you're currently on.

More ACC is still important for anything post T10 and if you don't want a terrible build beyond that, those pants are crucial to getting asap.

Your best upgrades are direct ones.

Evenstar Pants-> Ironworks Pants
Evenstar / High Allagan Gloves -> Ironworks Gloves
Evenstar Belt -> Ironworks Belt (Potential BiS item depending on T13 ACC)

if you have access to all of the previous coil gear then you can make a solid build with the High Allagan Gloves already that can translate to something meeting Accuracy for up to T12 roughly.

Problems truly start when your sitting on Poetics past the Gloves and Pants because now you quite literally need drops from FCOB to not destroy your build and even beyond that, (while you'll do so eventually) you want to slow the whole process down to a degree so you don't lose too much damage in between turns trying to meet the accuracy.

I would also say upgrading to your chest right away for summoner is one of the upgrades you'd wanna wait out.

The chest is less than 1 int of an upgrade going from evenstar > ironworks. It should be your LAST upgrade

but so stylish :(

The pants were my first upgrade, however, I was not too pleased with giving up 7 determination to gain 15 accuracy. I feel we will just have to do the best we can with what we were given.
