    Kay, stop with the insults - we know how to read.

    What I am telling you is that our experiences belie your accretions. The percentage chance of missing your Weapon Skills is so minute compared to that of your normal Auto-Attack, that the benefits outweigh the losses. I'm well aware of the fact that when you Miss a WS, it's lost DPS. What we are telling you is that it simply does not happen enough on WSes to merit the sort of absolution panic you're presenting. Instead, what is happening in the pratical application is that we're missing auto-attacks, which are immediately followed up on by low TP WSes that are resulting in more damage overall, as opposed to less.

    That's not to say 364 Accuracy is the best accuracy to have for every situation. You've no idea how those values change or what monsters she's facing. Garuda is a non-factor in our linkshell right now as it's rotated into the cycle infrequently and attendance for her is poor. That renders all of your accuracy concerns for my friend to be moot, as Rail is parsing in the high 90% for hit-rate according to BGParse (Used by our Raid Captain.)

    You want to be rude and closed minded about it, that's your failing. Otherwise, try getting your Accuracy to about 95-96% Rather than 100%. At worst you'll have a good chance of missing 1 hit of your Chaos Thrust and be able to follow it up with a combo for more damage. Or, while trying to set up position, get a missed auto-attack and be able to combo on the spot.

    We've stated our experience with it. Instead of trying to assert your superiority, why don't you test it for yourself first? As I said, I find the sweet-spot to be around 95% accuracy on average, although, the test samples are small due to the speed of the fights and infrequency of appropriate people on.
