Another Garuda, and there's my Sic Ifrit.



Edit: I was in a rush to leave this morning, but the only plausible thing I can think of for Seobit's different parses is a hidden passive on full AF+1, which wouldn't be unknown from SE.
I mean, I don't know why his Garuda is parsing so "low," either.
One thing may be Spell Speed. I go Int > Crit > Spell Speed > Det.
Seobit has 3 more Int, 2 more WD, 9 more DET, but 45 less Spell Speed(I want the neck off of T5, too..) and 12 less Crit in my parsing gear. My Garuda parses ~1 lower. That..Doesn't make sense, unless Spell Speed is just a vastly greater stat for Garuda than anything else.
While Spell Speed isn't great for the actual cast of Wind Blade, it's phenomenal for lowering the GCD/Recast of it. As we know Spell Speed has a higher effect for longer casts, and the recast is 3s, not 2.5s.
That combined with crit which means more uptime on our passive could be the difference.

Edit2: Then again, this doesn't completely justify T0rins results compared to yours. The only thing I can think of is his higher crit = more uptime on the passive = more Spell Speed.

I think that is a very likely explanation for what is going on. The spell speed buff that Garuda spits out is something like 80-90 spell speed. She crits more, buffs you more, lets her cast faster. In my mind, there are very few things that could explain how my Garuda does more than Seobit's Garuda with _11_ less int. That is a lot of int! And yet, my Garuda does more.

I'm currently at 436 accuracy, using +10 accuracy food. (recently dropped 12 accuracy on an accessory to upgrade to i90)

I've just spent the past 2 hours training with another T5 group, and my Garuda has had 100% accuracy the entire time.

I think they changed the pet accuracy cap. Even with food (if it was applying, which it probably still doesn't), I only have 446 accuracy, which wouldn't give me 100% pet accuracy previously.

Very interesting, it would make sense if they lowered the pet's accuracy to match ours at 435. Why they wouldn't mention it in the patch notes, I have no idea.

Or they had a bard who used their - Eva gear

No Rain of Death was being used.

This would be both fantastic a little annoying because I've spent so much time gearing for accuracy of late. RNG should only account for so much. I'll test tomorrow and post results

Edit: This would just change our BiS from titan earrings to allagan earrings with accuracy/crit food.
