    Dragoon gear kinda wierd?

    So idk if anyone has noticed, and it seems it may have a direct effect on dragoons ability to be a competative dps. But i have noticed that the Darklight Set for Dragoon is highly lacking in accuracy.

    If SE's direction at the moment is for us to get Darklight gear to progress into raiding, its a little bit imbalanced in stat allocation. I have a full Darklight dragoon with couple pieces of Myth and a +1 relic and i am still wayyyyyy wayyyy under the accuracy cap. Now the fact that we dont have crystal tower plays a slight role in that but when you look at other jobs, the comparison is very apparent.

    My monk in full darklight and just a regular relic and 2 pieces of AK accessories is already way over the accuracy cap, and it seems very wierd. I think there is a major problem with the gear selection for dragoon, they dont get enough accuracy. If the monk has far enough accuracy for coil, then why doesnt the dragoon? it just doesnt make sense.

    How much ACC do you have in full DL as a drg? I know DL for pld puts you WAY over the cap, but then you start to lose it when you add allagan/myth items, depending on which you get. As long as you're over 472 (with food if you need it, HQ Eft Steak will give you 9-10) you should be fine for turns 1-4.

    No matter, there was over 50% chance that drg gear would drop from bc1 since release so all drgs got like 6-7 ilv90 minimum by now when the rest have to settle with 2-3.

    You dropped the ACC pants.
    Also the Darklight Earrings of Maiming has more acc than the Striking and is technically aimed at DRG.

    I got the allagan pants on my monk and I had to get back to the cap by mixing other gear. That's just the case when you're in between sets.
    The acc for a full darklight dragoon is probably past the acc cap.

    EDIT:
    It will be still be below. Should be 460 acc. So, yea I guess it's low.
    I'm not sure being way over the cap is that much better.
    I was 510+ in full darklight as my monk. Now I'm struggling to get to 480.
