Please remove accuracy

[siverstorm]

Instead of taking out stats we should add more. A haste stat different from SS that affect AAs, an evasion stat, even make dex/str/pie/mnd/int/vit more relevant than what they are now.

I would like this. Hell, even having more gearsets with a wider stat spread would be a fun addition (e.g. if we had an additional i130 set with substat mixes like acc/crit/det or crit/det/ss). Obviously balanced for the fact that there would be an additional substat.

Then we could even go into job specific gear that adds ability traits (5 second reduction on a cooldown for example). Multiple sets could then have less substats if the trait is worth it (take a hit on det and accuracy but shave 5-10 seconds off blood for blood or something). With some balancing none of these suggestions are totally outlandish.

I'm fantasizing now halp.

Look, in terms of BiS, acc, gear, stat allocation, it doesn't matter because it's all wonky anyway. If you can't even get acc on the higher ilvl gear then you have to limit yourself just to try and get that best gear, and your stat weights on your main stats are pretty big. Imagine if we didn't have acc for a second, people could focus on a lot more. Regardless when your argument is more complexity in a tab game... I'm sorry but as much as I love this game, it isn't complex at all. When you suffer and make your team suffer just to be able to hit things but can still fail because of gear checks and the like, what good is acc?

I'm not going to discuss whether acc is "a good idea" or not as a game mechanic. I personally think there are way better ways to improve gearing and optimization than removing an entire stat.

I was just simply stating you need it if you want to currently do coil. The only players that really got screwed this tier when it game to accuracy and stat weights were bard and summoner. Every other class had sets they could work out that still came out good without spending a crapton of gil on crafted pieces or taking gear that, for all intensive purposes, should be inferior but end up vastly superior.
