    The accuracy cap rises the furthur you progress in coil. the 481/2 I mentioned before is for turn 5 which is why we call it accuracy cap because it's the highest accuracy requirement. Turns 1-4 require much less accuracy to be at 100%. I forgot the numbers exactly because after we raised our accuracy to accomodate for the new turn there was little point to lower it for previously conquered turns as we would need to raise it for the next part of the same raid.

    This makes sense sort of future proofing. I also brought this up w/ my fc as well that we should not gear for current but, future. I guess we have about 8 months to get that straight huh?

    I am @ 477 right now and I have not missed TT but, it could just be blind luck after all we only tested that one run.

    I will test some more runs. I would like to know a definitive answer for sure.

    I'm also at 477 right now, I'll be sure to post my findings next time we fight Twintania, tonight is an offnight (i think) so more than likely it will be tomorrow.

    Confused as to whether you mean Valor Cuisses (legs) and Heavy Allagan Flanchard (feet). You should be getting Valor Cuisses anyways b/c of the higher parry and acc over Allagan Legs (so you can switch in gear w/ lots of parry and little to no acc like Allagan Feet, Surcoat, Valor Gloves, etc.)

    You should not be considering getting Valor feet over Allagan for any reason but vanity.

    Aim for 475 acc without food and you'll be fine.

    Edit: And if you're main tank you should be eating parry/vit food like La Noscean Toast and eventually Finger Sandwich.

    There are two nearly identical best in slot sets. One involves Valor hands and valor feet, the other involves Allagan hands and Allagan feet. The difference is a trade-off between a few CRIT and a few DET. Parry remains the same at 617, and accuracy remains the same at 484.

    You can use whatever combination you prefer the look of to be honest.

    On topic: I MT Twin and in my current gear accuracy is at 473. I still miss. I believe the cap is 481 or 482.

    I have missed Twintania with 472 ACC exactly. I haven't missed yet with 481 after uncountable attempts.

    I've read that it's 482 for tanks (not sure if it is the same for melee DPS - DRG and MNK - however...)

    Just to update, my raid group unfortunately only got about 20 minutes worth of attempts in tonight due to the early maintenance. But with 477 accuracy I didn't notice any misses on Twintania. Hopefully we'll get at least a full hour, maybe 2 tomorrow. I'll update again then.

    Unrelated I felt like I was taking more damage than ever... not sure why.

    Thanks for the update. It's possible that the new equip might have made you lose a good chunk of par or something or just plain rng. I have had rng screw me over in the past like when ADS Crit me 6 times back to back. I will also post my findings after our raid Monday so Tuesday will probably be the day I post the info. I will get the acc of everyone in our group and report back who missed if any miss. That way we can get a little glimpse into everyone's acc cap.

    While I agree that RNG is a killer sometimes, this statement is completely untrue. No Boss in coil can crit. Go back over your logs and see for yourself. I've been doing coil every week since week 2 and have yet to see 1 single crit so that is not just RNG luck. If bosses could crit tanks would be getting 1 shot pretty much every fight
