Tank CT Gear gives no accuracy?

1 out of 20 times, the party wipes because you missed that crucial Shield Lob

As a healer I don't mind healing a low vitality tank, as long as those bugs and soldiers won't be hitting me.

Better secondary stats ensure those things won't be hitting you just as much as accuracy would. I've not once heard of a party wiping because a pld missed an attack. As a healer I do mind healing a low vitality tank as a low vitality tank can't survive certain things as well.

Yeah, if your accuracy is low, but your other stats are higher because of it, even though you miss an attack here and there, the attacks in between will typically make up for it.

Well, personally I pull with combo-ready Halone, if that missed whatever mob I was trying to pull would go straight to the healer. Depending on what it is... (a node from ADS or Caduceus or Dreadnaught), certain wipe.
Maybe we haven't heard any about that because people usually are accuracy capped "by default" (DL gear).

Why shield lob when you can flash?

Also, when does a single missed lob mean a wipe?

Joking aside, you raise a fair point. This issue is alot more complex when you get down to the nitty gritty then we give it credit for. It's also easy to say you don't mind healing a low health tank when that tanks risk of getting bursted too hard and dying is a real factor. Proper itemization for a fight is important. Sometimes it's just not being geared enough. If you can't compromise hp but you can't compromise accuracy either, you have a real issue that skill can not overcome.

Yeah... I guess Flash with the enmity buffs now would be fine.
For now I'm only tanking the EM Primals, I guess I'm neurotic about stuff hitting healers?
But I wouldn't risk it :x
