SWING and a MISS!... {Can I have it?}

[Mychael]

Well since "Battle Skill" doesnt exist in FFXIV as it did in XI, it might be harder to implement in the sense of battle mechanics code. Though the base accuracy on weapons might be a factor as well to make up for the absense of the "skill". As far as I remember, no weapon in XI had a base "accuracy" stat (added stats don't count), though some did miss more than others (Dark Knights I'm lookin' at you....)

Battle skills made your accuracy differ from mine; that's not necessarily what (I think) the OP was going for. Everyone could continue to have equal accuracy, but it could be less than 99.9%

Well frankly missing makes no sense to me anyway especially when the mob is so damn big that there is no possible way we should ever miss unless hit with blind.

Nothing worse than missing a ws that cost 3k tp talk about a big let down lol.

1) What WS costs 3k tp? What combo takes 3k? And it's not like building TP takes long anyway.

2) I don't think the OP wants 50% accuracy or anything, but right now accuracy on melee jobs seems almost 100% when under the effect of Strength in Numbers (or even Comradery, depending on what you're fighting).

3)Missing isn't necessarily "striking the air beside the target." Maybe your sword slips just a little and you hit with the flat instead of the edge? It's makes sense--to me, anyway.
