Please consider removing raid level accuracy requirements from dungeons.

nothing else to do if nobody needs healing

That's the thing though. There is something to do. Cast offensive spells. So what if they're going to miss?

The accuracy requirements don't prevent you from casting spells or being useful. Any damage above 0dps is a gain. No matter how badly a healer might want to put out 2000 dps, that's not a healer's job, and the dungeons should not cater to healers so that they can do someone else's job. Put out whatever damage you can. Just don't expect the game to let you be a DD-who-heals instead of a healer-who-DDs. Don't trivialize the people who are actually there to kill things.

Its not all about the DPS. In fact...its not much about the DPS at all. At least for me. Its as follows:

1. The utility on my DPS skills fails if the damage misses. Fluid aura is useful for helping tanks position mobs (like that sprite that is /always/ on the stairs in Lost City hard) and Holy can help mitigate damage and interrupt mobs that have a lot of cones/aoe's they like to spam. Which helps dps maintain rotations and keeps extra damage off the tank. Now they are no longer reliable.
2. MP used on skills that miss so often now is a waste. Which could, if someone botches mechanics or dies etc, negatively effect my actual job.
3. Its just obnoxiously frustrating. Especially with moves like Aero III where I then have to tab through mobs to figure out who got hit and who didn't to see if its worth taking another gamble on it.

As Keaira said, maybe this is more acute on WHM since /all/ our dps skills can miss and we have no alternative to keep ourselves busy (cards or reliable skills that can't miss). I don't expect to do 2000 dps. I don't expect dungeons to cater to healers ability to dps. I /do/ expect not to be presented with an arbitrary wall that asks me to sacrifice improvements to my healing capability in order to achieve the same proficiency I had previously (which was based on your skill at stance dancing, managing mana and your party not HA HA HA RNG). I expect that, if this is our new direction, the expert roulette dungeons should have more built in healing challenges to keep us occupied. It isn't about 'trivializing' DPS jobs. Its about asking to be allowed to do /our/ job to the best of our ability without being made to jump through irrational hoops.

It would be so what if the miss rate would be 10-15% but its way more than that. I have overmelded ring and earrings so i sit with 423 acc and with those my miss rate is around the 10-15%.
Dpsing isn't free, it costs alot mp so should get bit better return from it.
Also people who see the effort to dps as healer they should get somthing else in return than missing half of the hits. In games you see effort and get something for return in this case the return isn't good enough. And its very easy casual content so I don't think such a dung should require melding. Feels bit dum that I need to to meld acc to 220+ gears to be able to hit in dung that ilvl requirement is 180.


Generally saying I would even give up the 10% damage boost of cleric stance away for some acc, and I dont think it would be game breaking if healers would have bit extra accuracy.
