I actually don't play DRG much nowadays, but I find people's obsession with ACC way overblown. Sure, Impulse Drive sucks but in trying to make it 99% accurate you significantly overshoot on everything else.
If impulse drive misses your dps is trash. If you played DRG nowadays on things like Garuda, you'd find that you can almost never have enough acc. You need to make Impulse drive as accurate as the dps skills of other classes like monk, arc, and war. If you don't, then your dps will never be able to compete with their combos, because you wont be completing combos at all..in some cases wont even be able to start them.

Unless you're hitting the 460+ without food and buffs I would definitely pick explorer's or a double-triple melded cobalt hauby (red).
^ that. Acc is way more important than a measly 7 pie and enhanced invigorate. TP is pointless if you waste it missing impulse drive. Plus Drachen Mail is a pretty sub par piece of gear, almost anything is better than it these days.
