So, 2 weeks ago, I replaced my Darklite legs with Allagan pants/Hoplite Boots. My accuracy is WAY lower now, and I'm noticing that I miss a lot in Turn 4... Makes it tough to hold on to soldiers and knights when this happens..
What should I do? I lost out on over 30 Accuracy points swapping out of Darklite, and I am noticing that most of the iLvl 90 gear is missing accuracy.
Accuracy for Tank gear?

Well your best action would be to use DL until you can get the AF2 boots I'd assume. They come with 24 accuracy and will cover some of that gap.

that a bummer , but yea you need to becareful which piece to swap out. i made similar mistake. I brought AF2 PLD glove and lose like 16 acc. goin from DL to i90 stuff, there are some piece that u need to becareful with ex. DL Pant, glove, belt, and some of the accessory. (you can try to buy hero Ring of Fending it give quite a few ACC.

darksteel chest melded with accuracy is probably your best option.

you could switch your bracelet, and your rings for tanking jewlery (darklight bracelet has 9 pts accuracy, and darklight/hoplite combo will give you 20 points.)...and meld some rose-gold ear cuffs with accuracy. (not sure about the accuracy cap for the ear cuffs though)
additionally, you could pray the RNG gods bless you with the allagan chest from turn 1. that would give you an extra ten points of accuracy. if you also get your AF+1 boots, that would also net you another ten points.
i'll be dropping below the cap when i get my af+1 chest next week as well, so i'll be countering that by getting rose gold earcuffs and melding them with accuracy. (have tested this) -
11-20-2013, 08:07 AMZDamnedSorry about the Lodestone, I'm showing up in my DPS gear. I have all the Darklite Fending jewelry as well as the Hoplite ring. I think my next Myth piece may end up being the hero's Ring.Quote:

11-20-2013, 08:19 AMsaber_alterya, i understand. 439 acc was a little startling. i would still go with your AF+1 boots though instead of hero's. you get 10 acc vs 5 acc if you go the ring option. (On a completely different note it seems that warrior is just as coil loot heavy for BiS as paladin.)Quote:

So... in total I lost 32 Accuracy from this "Upgrade" since I put back on my Hoplite Boots. (+11)
AF2 Boots LOOK TERRIBLE with Allagan Pants .. >.< But thats +21 Accuracy, for a boost of +10.
Hero's Ring will give me back another 5..
Hero's Belt gives me back 4...
Even the Heavy Allagan Flanchard give 0 Accuracy! Is the Heavy Allagan Gear flawed? -
11-20-2013, 08:58 AMsaber_alternow that, is a question i cannot answer. not even going to bother with allagan feet (despite them being bis for pallys) as i already have my af+1 in that slot. (not really going to bother with any allagan bar maybe pants, for that matter. might not being going Bis, but i sure as hell am not going to sit around expecting RNG to give me something good.)Quote:

Pertaining to OP, this happened to me 2 weeks ago and I can understand your situation. How I worked around it was I crafted dark steel hands and rose gold earrings, put as much accuracy as I could, dyed the hands brown because it matches the color of the allagan pieces (not required), and crafted accuracy food for coil raiding.
It really worked sufficiently for me, until the following week when the allagan chest dropped and I re-worked all my stats and left my accuracy food to rot... -

So, I just noticed a huge discrepancy between Warrior and Paladin Gear...
Valor and Warrior's Sets are both at 66 Accuracy. (Yay!)
Bravura = 0 Accuracy. (Aww..)
Curtana +1 = 26 Accuracy. (WTF!?) Allagan Round Shield = 7 (Turn 1!?!)
Allagan Battleaxe = 37 Accuracy! (Just need to clear Coil to be able to clear Coil!)
Basically, Paladins get a sweet bonus to accuracy early on without Accessories. Looks like I need to start spending more Myth on Accuracy from Accessories.
So, final question, What do I need Before food to keep myself at a good place? 455~?
I don't have the income to get the Crafted items sadly, as my Play time is very limited, however thank you so much for showing me the Crafted items as an option guys! -

WAR here working on building accuracy. Yea it's pretty screwed up for WAR and needs a bit of planning. I'm sitting at 451 acc right now, a few runs from getting the DL Flanchard, that alone will boost me to 483 acc but I'm gonna need to replace the 25 acc from Darklight Axe, which no other weapons moving forward have, short of crafted/melded axe. Right now I'm leaning toward hero belt for +8, and then the DL choker (of striking?) for another +12. If my math is right that's 478 accuracy.
But you're kinda stuck working around the DL flanchard until you can replace head/chest/feet together. If you can afford crafted stuff I suppose it's much easier, otherwise just need a little planning. -

So, I got lucky, and grabbed the Allagan Chest piece last week in Coil, that fixed my issues along with Militia HQ Boots. (Slightly worse than Hoplite, but more accuracy.)
All I can say in the end here, is to be careful planning your upgrades.. Mythology chest has some, but not enough accuracy, and most of the Hero's Jewelry has 0 Accuracy, which makes Coil required to be farmed for a while before you can effectively spend Mythology. -

You can try put HQ Rose Earrings Screws, its DPS HQ level 70 earrings, yes DPS earrings. Use that one instead of DL earrings or Hero earrings (too bad if you already bought Hero earrings because its not that good)
HQ Rose Earrings Screws give you 9 STR 9 DEX 12 Accuracy and Determination 6, you can over meldings with Vit + 10 (VIT IV + VIT II) Parry +12 (Battledance III x 2) and +6 Critical Rate (Savage Aim? III) with this earrings, you have extra acc +12 thus more STR to ditch out more damage = better threats and more 9 DEX to adds more parry block rate which help mitigation up and extra critical rate and determination to boost up your attack power.
If you not bought Hero earrings, I suggest you not buy that yet, compared to this HQ earrings, you have more 5 VIT, lower Parry -1 and useless skill speed +16 which is not help you hit faster or anything either but you lose benefits from STR DEX Critical Rate and Determination.
Compared to Allagan Earrings, its depends on you now that you gonna use Allagan earrings which have more 5 VIT, lower accucary -1 and more useful (but a little more only) parry rate +4 but you lose benefits from STR DEX Critical Rate and Determination.
IMO, extra 5 vit is so so, not really big deals for me, I have all level 90 gears + Allgan except Body and Earrings, I have already plently VIT. -

Do not dip below 475 for turn 4, choose gear according to staying at that number.
-
12-04-2013, 06:39 AMAltimisI heard its 472 but woot 472 475 not that big diff anyway.Quote:

12-04-2013, 06:51 AMZDamnedI do use food, every time. Also, I jus want to point out, it's easier for Paladins, since Curtana has a TON of accuracy on it. =PQuote:
