    Accuracy.. someone break it down for me (BRD)

    Hello all,
    So all this time I kept hearing 699 accuracy was the cap .. is this true or no? If yes what's it the cap for? Ex primals? Raids? Dungeons?
    My game play style consists of gathering tomes from POD, daily dungeons , dun scaith weekly raid stuff, and WT .. no statics .. Should I even worry about accuracy numbers? Ty for any info

    That's the accuracy required to guarantee successful hits from the front in Soul of the Creator (Savage).
    Accuracy requirements from the flank or for magic are lower, but in a raid context, you want frontal accuracy even if you're not a tank, for times when mechanics compel you to attack from the front.

    If you're unsure if your current accuracy is high enough for something you want to do, go a few rounds with the Stone, Sky, Sea dummy for that fight. They're programmed with the same accuracy requirements as the fights they represent.

    If the content you want to do doesn't have a representative dummy in Stone, Sky, Sea, then it's casual enough content that an accuracy deficiency probably won't be a severe detriment.

    Thank you kindly for the reply .. did not know about stone, sky, sea ..
    However after doing the initial setup .. I do not see the void ark, the weeping city, or dun scaith.. I don't even see the newest 24 man trial so I guess I am safe to not worry about my accuracy lol
    The only one I see in the list is limitless blue ex.. the only time I do that is when I have WT and it's in a party finder unscyned so lol
    Again ty for the info.. I won't worry so much about accuracy anymore

    Also be aware that in just a few short months the second expansion will be coming out. While we don't have specifics yet, we do know that Accuracy is going to be getting drastic changes.

    Unless you are running Savage raid content, Accuracy shouldn't be a concern.

    It matters for the extreme primals.

    699 is the accuracy required to never miss from the front in any content. Casters/ranged only need 592. Specifically, it's A8S-A12S, Sophia EX and Zurvan EX need that much - for older fights, it's a little less.

    Dungeons, 24-man raids, Alexander Normal Mode, and non-EX trials do not require any additional accuracy at all above the base value of 354.
