    accuracy affects your dmg output. Just because you are hitting the mob, you may not be hitting it for the full potential. Example -- You do 5 attacks and they range from 75 - 200dmg. That is because your accuracy sucks.

    More accuracy = more consistent numbers.

    go test it yourself. DO a range of attacks with low accuracy, than with cap accuracy. You will see for yourself

    This.

    I don't know for sure, that's why I'm asking, but the in-game description of accuracy doesn't say about a damage range, just that it affects how often you hit the mob. So far, I've had zero use for it. Granted I haven't done coil yet but even still - a stat that's only useful for 1% of the entire game?

    Clearly, having higher accuracy allows you a better chance at hitting a mobs weak point for more damage, such as gaps in armor and the like! <_<
