There needs to be some adjustments with fending accessories

Accuracy is the closest thing this game has to horizontal progression. It's the only thing that people actually have to adjust their gear around. I don't think people want accuracy dropped as much as they think they do. It would make gearing even more boring than it already is.

It causes way too many problems. And most of the time is just needlessly frustrating.
I am not a fan of Horizontal progression anyways, as there will ALWAYS be BiS, MinMaxing, etc. In the end Horizontal Progression is usually just Vertical Progression in disguise.

We'd still use STR and just say "make sure the tank has adlo, and the boss has eye, virus, and path"

What if that's not enough? Or if the tank buster happens too often for Virus/E4E/Holm/etc? Though yeah, it's SE we are talking about I am not really expecting something like this to happen.

If it's not enough then they designed content that players beat without the gear from said content.
