    If you have accuracy on your weapon then you may not need it elsewhere to get the accuracy you need.

    Specifically you won't need to use an accuracy belt, which means you can have a forbidden meld enmity belt.

    Also, even without this, pld seems to hold hate just fine using its tools.

    Imo, if you're tanking and don't have an enmity belt on, you're doing it wrong. Use an electrum ring +1 for acc, it's all you need. Putting acc in a spot where you could have a better stat is a complete waste. Therefore the Curtana frees up the ring slot for STR or something else. It doesn't take much additional acc to land almost every hit even on WAR (which I believe is the class with the lowest native acc).

    Nope, PLD and WAR have the exact same accuracy. Thing is you don't need Acc for most things in game until you get to the end most stuff like Garuda where it really is necessary and matters the most.

    EDIT: Just to follow up they did change it where you CAN miss on Ifrit and Moogle now. I don't know if it's old news or not because it's been about four months since my shell has really done either, but I thought I'd bring it up.

    Well, that was the case back in the day. Regardless, one electrum ring +1 is really all the acc you need. All the folks stacking it everywhere they can obviously don't parse much. I haven't parsed my PLD, but that's all i wear on WAR and my hit rate is 97-100% depending on the fight.
