Is accuracy needed in PvP? If not, please remove it from any PvP gear

I've heard that accuracy plays no role in PvP and that you'll hit anything regardless of how little accuracy you have.

I understand that some PvP gear can be useful for gearing up in PvE, but please don't give us useless stats for PvP-centric gear.

There is an accuracy cap in PVP however it is lower to my understanding.

[Guesswhat]

iirc 580 is enough? I could be wrong.

You can miss in PvP with low accuracy, yes.

Yes accuracy does play a role in PvP. Prior to 3.0 the accuracy cap was 363. I do not know what it is now but from a couple random posts with no sources I have read 420, they could have been trollin' I honestly do not know. I'm just mentioning the number in case someone else can confirm it. So the stat is not useless and PvP gear secondary stat can also be great as well.

There was a low accuracy cap around 360-370ish back when pvp was lvl50. (Base accuracy at lvl50 is 341)
Not sure if it's changed for lvl 60 though.

376 accuracy on my DRK and I only miss when I have blind

[Guesswhat]

In any case, whatever cap is, if your not far off you are good to go. The other secondary stats are more important.

lv50 FL acc is needed but i dont know about seal rock but im always wear 1 gear with acc and i never miss

[myahele]

Thanks for the answers It's reassuring that accuracy is needed. I was just annoyed that some pvp accessories had accuracy in them if they're not needed.

I have 400 acc on in, which I miss once in a while. 423 acc on mcn and don't miss at all. Max out crit and dex and stay at 400+ acc.
