SMN Novus, what did you do!

[Grotesque]

Except with the current coil gear for casters, ACC is pretty much on every piece cept for a handful. On SMNs to be exact, you have much more accuracy available to you then the cap. So ACC is wasted on a book like the Novus once you get all of the coil gear.

Yes then you can use upgraded tome gear without ACC instead and glamour it with HA gear. Your statement doesn't negate mine but supports it.

Or maybe some just know what they are doing ...
Easy getting 600+ acc, way more than needed, without any on the weapon!

Edit: No thats not the setup i will aim for!

Showing that one can reach stupidly high accuracy by willingly taking everything with accuracy is just as stupid as showing you can go under 400 with accuracy on the Novus.

If you truly knew what you were doing and you really think that not using Tier IV is gimping oneself, you'd be an Elezen Duskwright instead of a Moon Keeper Miqo'te since the difference between their base Intelligence is 4 which the Novus Tier 4 doesn't cover in relative value for stats gain. Also, the difference in relative stats value by removing the Tier IV in CRT and DET and putting accuracy instead while allowing you to minimize the hit to switching to an Evenstar piece with an high Spell Speed value (while low value, more is still better to a degree, especially if you snap casts during high movement encounters) is around 1 intelligence and will actually give you some safety on the accuracy cap for the following tier of content since its itemization is as of yet (obviously)unknown.

If you tried to show you had a clue about what you were talking about and be a "CRT/DET only" advocate, you failed terribly hard.

See, I don't know when, if ever, I am actually going to be doing Coil. As a person in full Soldiery, ACC is fairly lacking. Things like Leviathan Ex still have higher Acc caps than Soldiery gear can even give you. Soldiery gear doesn't even meet T5 accuracy cap. I actually had much higher Accuracy with full Myth gear than I do with full Soldiery. So as it stands right now I have to wear pieces of myth if I want to do things like Leviathan Ex or T5 (which I still haven't gotten around to beating yet).

So, yeah.. Accuracy has a place on the Novus weapon depending on what you like to do and are capable of doing.

Besides, once I have the Novus completed they will eventually have an option to respec it if I decide I no longer need/want the added Accuracy.

I'll be putting some accuracy on it because I want to have the possibility of freely choosing between other equipment in the future in case the restrictions get tougher. If not then you can always get the accessory with CRIT and DET where the people who fully maxed those in the weapon had to pick ACC, for example.

Every time I think about atma & novus I get worried about the expansion & level cap increase. Unless there's another calamity, one that resets us all back to 1... we're going to be Toon level 75, with Item level 300.

@Dwill: No my intention was to give the link to the calculator, as i said i am not aiming for that high acc *sigh*
Op was asking what we do with our novus, will you really make it a "I am better than you" topic?
Dont cut through context, its 3 posting long from 3 players you have to read all to understand the context.

You pretty much steered the thread in that direction yourself with this post:

By the way, here's the link to the calculator: http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/

That was tremendously hard to do without linking to some random 600 accuracy setup to try to discredit someone then backpedaling after being called out

In a SMN thread linking to a bard? sure yes!
Just stop your childish play please...

Maybe because Bard is the default one when opening the page ?

Man, clicking on a drop down menu sure is becoming hard these days
