Accuracy: Can it just go away?

[Renault]

So here's the scenario:

You just got a sweet new piece of gear, right? You put it on, head into your next raid and you go beat up the bo-...Oh, you missed, messing up your rotation and your dps plummets. You look at your gear like you've been looking at those excel sheets from accounting, trying to find where the numbers went wrong. Oh, look! That chest piece you just got rid of had 77 accuracy on it! Welp, looks like you can't wear the new one! Time to put on that old piece of junk and keep trucking along until you get ANOTHER piece of new gear that can make up for the loss!

All that fun aside, I'll get down to the point:

Accuracy is an un-fun, un-necessary stat, and should be removed entirely.

Or they could add a way to modify stats. I've been really wanting something like that since I started playing this game...

It made no sense to me for a game to have accuracy caps, and yet have no way to modify your secondary stats to meet said caps. (I'd also love to reforge all my spell speed on scholar into crit, hue hue..)

I see where you're coming from, but after personally having to deal with the vomit that was WoW's reforging system, I'd rather not do that. It's almost just as bad, instead of having to keep older, weaker gear to keep accuracy, you'd have to go "reforge" nearly every piece of your equipment just to min-max your stats after each new piece you get.

Not to mention no Add-on to do all the math for you, hope you like spreadsheets!

That wouldn't happen in this game because there's only 3-4 stats and none of them are as impactful as WoW's stats are.

I personally loved reforging, the ability to put crit on everything was great. Just cos blizzard handled it poorly doesn't mean SE would.

And give everything 100% hit rate? No.

Why? It all has 100% hit rate anyway once you reach the accuracy cap.

Cuz it makes moves like Featherfoot and DA Dark Dance completely useless. I'm not down for everything in the world hitting when I'm like 50 levels above mobs.

I mean the Player's accuracy cap...Not the NPC...

You can't give players 100% hit rate and then expect the mobs to be able to miss.

Accuracy is a stat that makes you make choices. It's one of the few stats that you need a certain level before you start min/maxing other stats. So it has a purpose.
