Healer Accuracy Issue

[Rawrz]

Well Scholar's have it a lot better since Shadow Flare, Bio2 and Bio never miss.

Energy Drain, Broil, aero, miasma, and the occasional ruin II to avoid an aoe say hello. (Miasma II if 3 or more targets as well) Sitting at 520ish and I haven't noticed a miss yet.

Have you tried using those spells in Antitower? Because that's where it's very noticeable.

Even just with the 462 I'm at on scholar I barely ever miss on seph EX. 600 would have you more than set for savage even I feel, with just very rare misses on the later fights.

Yes, from what I've read the estimates caster cap for A8S is slightly over 600. Patch 3.5 casual content should no where be near that number.

Yeah it's one thing to miss on Savage content but on stuff like dungeons, constantly missing with Holy, Aero3, Assize, etc. is frustrating.

Found this in another thread:

Once you start to acquire Midas / Lore pieces, start to meld half your slots of with Accuracy Materia. That should give you more than enough accuracy to handle casual contents with minimal misses leading up to the next expansion.

@Roll

Your posts on this thread indicate you don't like missing in casual content.

You should be close to if not at 100% Hit Rate in current casual content at around 450 Accuracy. This is light compared to the "up to 600" required for Savage.

You should be able to achieve that 450 by melding approximately half your slots in accuracy once you start to deck out in i220-240s. That gives you the other half of your slots to use for healer-melds such as SpS/Crit/Det.

I maintain good DPS as a SCH in both new dungeons. I've slotted in 5 Tier V accuracy materia so far, and am at 414. I'm hitting over 99% of the time.

Not to be rude, but do you just not read?

Cos multiple people have been suggesting and talking about their melding accuracy (the post you quoted included).

Doesn't require pentamelds in the least, I haven't penta melded accuracy on a single thing.

This seems to be a common misconception about healers "needing" Pentamelds to bit when the only healers who do are those pushing the bleeding edge of content and need to push every advayage they can get.

For those looking at more casual content, the hit rate isn't terrible enough to be disastrous and players can slowly meld their Midas / Lore pieces with Accuracy as they acquire them.
