    [DEV] Is the accuracy on arrows the problem with Archers?

    while i was playing on my archer i was noticing that i dont miss as often as my pug or lancer. at first i was attributing it to the fact that my bow had about 5 to 10 ish more accu on it so i wasn't really paying attention.Then i switched arrow from weathered to iron arrow and i noticed that the % of miss dropped even more .

    I then did a little item browsing to see where this could come from and to see if it could be applied to the other DoW . What i found was surprising and raised my concern greatly.

    its better to show then talk about so here's what i found
    Example 1 Range weapon crab bow
    http://ffxiv.yg.com/item/crab-bow?id=4070304
    atk 129 accu 165 crit 117 with durability
    +
    Ammo Red coral Arrow
    http://ffxiv.yg.com/item/red-coral-arrow?id=3920019
    Atk 44 accu 161 crit 44

    my concern is these item combined for the actual calculation ? if so then i could see a emerging problem originating from the massive boost to accuracy gained from the ammo .

    here what it would look like combined
    Atk 173 Accu 326 Crit 161

    does this make sense ? What do you guys think?

    Doesnt sound like a problem with archer it sounds like a problem with every other class.

    I have 8 crafts at 50. All I did was watch T.V. and spam standard for easy mode synths. Enjoy leveling those crafts in 1.19 and beyond everyone!

    All classes have accuracy problems at the moment, so its balanced.
