Healer Accuracy Issue

[Andrea]

Sorry, I missed the memo where healer's have to meld accuracy on gear now.

Not to be rude but that has been the "memo" since first coil. All of 2.x was filled with healers melding acc, hell scholars even melded their relic with acc.

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.

I just thought it was odd that it went from being able to land 95% of your spells in dungeons to surprise! Half your spells are missing and you're gonna keep on missing until you get the new gear and meld it with loads of accuracy lol

We went from an 95% hit rate to approximately 85% based on some of the numbers I've seen. While this is a notable dip it's hardly "I'm missing all the time" values and that it's only your perception that it feel the hit rate is lower than it is.

I have zero accuracy melds at the moment and the miss rage is nowhere near as high as some may claim it to be.

Yep =/ I remember when I first started going into Coil. I had a bit too low Accuracy as a tank, probably around 30 points too little (yes, with accuracy food in effect). Which doesn't sound like all that much with numbers what they are now, but it was enough that half the time, my Butcher's Block would miss >.< Which meant that my most powerful aggro attack didn't take effect and I'd have to start my combo over from the beginning. Sometimes it was even the second attack that missed, meaning I got no benefit at all from those two GCD spent. In other words, aggro didn't like me at all, and the snake in T1 broke up with me and wanted to date one of the DPS or healers instead.
After the first wipe, I managed to scrounge around in my armoury and switched out a few pieces to lower ilvl or incorrect mainstat (when it came to accessories) to bring my Acc up to around 5-10 points below neccessary. I still missed a few times, but not nearly as much as the first attempt. We got through it, but... yeah. It wasn't pretty, and I kept riding that thin line of almost losing aggro ^^;

So yeah, don't know if it's just RNG, or if "85%" means you should expect closer to 50% accuracy, but... Yep. I'm one of the people who melded my Scholar relic with Acc/Crit, and I still keep it around for when I end up in level 50 content in roulettes etc.

Indeed .-. I to get quite irked when I my Holy misses to that degree but that's the unfortunate circumstances I'll have to deal with until I slowly fix the issue myself.

With that being said.

Sorry, I just love the way you worded this xD I almost want to use it as a signature >>; lol

hope SE removes acc for every1 come 4.0 , juggling acc isnt fun

Or put accuracy on healer gear starting with 3.3 (or the melded accuracy will be not enough anymore after 3.3)
Or it is a hidden way to push healers more to healing
