    I think you still got the point, don't you? Not that it will never happen that you may be facing your target for 2-3 GCD here and there during a fight (Titan is a bit special for that, turning around pretty often, Garuda and Ifrit does turn around from time to time too even if it's less frequently) but you won't gear yourself to reach the "hit from face" accuracy. Giving a hit from face is very situational. If it's not you're prolly doing something wrong as you shouldn't be facing the target for an extended time on most fights and anyway most bosses will punish you hardly for trying that with a cleave that will reminds you that dps aren't welcome where the tank stands.
    And the main idea being that CT/Primals have much lower ACC requirment than T1-5 as you definitly don't need a 450+ ACC to hit in CT.

    For our AoEs it's not really that the ACC's cap is higher but more that you have a high chance that at least one of the mob isn't showing you its back/flank but its head instead. Unless the tank(s) managed to turn them all in the same direction on you placed yourself behind the whole pack.

    EDIT :

    For no-acc needed content (CT/Primals) Holy Lance is a bit above GB Zenith. Total value of the 3 highest weapons should be:
    GB Zenith : 426.232
    Holy Lance : 427.072
    Allangan Spear : 446.084
    As you can see it's not a big upgrade, but still Holy lance is slighly better (you should gain something like 0.3-0.4 dps increase). For places where ACC does count (T1-5) you will definitly take the GB Zenith.

    I know, but you specifically mentioned "Not sure if with 0 ACC on your equipment you would be able to get a miss on those places."

    Your condition was 'getting a miss at all'. So I just mentioned that at 341 acc, you'll probably manage to miss an EX Primal at some point.

    I'd really like to know if Primals can be missed with 0 acc on gear, I somewhat hope so as they are "Extrem versions" and are supposed to ask for some gear/stats at least. Hard to do the test as I'm at the opposite side of the field: totally over capped in ACC. By getting Titan's Earrings yesterday I managed to go down to 510 ACC ... yippie ..! I could go naked to have no accuracy, but I would die from the unavoidable damages before having a relevant testing, not to mention that testing from hiting from face without equipment on me means death at first cleave as even with gear i fall to 10-20% hp if it happens (Titan's cleave and MB, Garuda's cleaves and Ifrit's Firebreaths).
    It's not like it has a big interest to know the Primals' ACC requirment, but still I'm curious.
