I will admit that i may have been a bit off by the skill speed cap, but that was, again, based on many different sources stating the same number. I get now that it is not necessary, but i enjoy my skill speed being well over 400, there is a noticeable increase in the reduction of global cooldowns and i fly through dps like it's nothing. Det. may be better to invest in, but when I'm back-to-back criting 700s, it doesn't seem to matter near as much.

    Arkista: No, I weave them in between GCD abilities during PB. My problem was that i was alternating GL producing moves with buffing/debuffing moves, instead of just building all 3 at the beginning.
    During your extensive research you must have missed the part where the community discovered that accuracy requirements are lower when attacking targets from their flanks, and even lower from their rears. Since melee DPS stick to flank and rear in a vast majority of their time, the flank cap is wholly sufficient.

    Furthermore, you are incorrect with the 472 for T5 even then. The 472 cap was discovered for Caduceus, and allowed for capped accuracy throughout coil for tanks (who typically attack from the front) until Turn 5, at which point the Scourges and the Asclepius + Hygaia packs capped at 482 (not sure if the Scourges go as high as 482). These values were widely accepted until it was discovered that position actually matters.

    The moment the discovery was made and confirmed, I ran Turns 1-5 with 458 accuracy exactly for weeks and never missed (except on snakes when stacked for divebombs and BRD did not use Rain of Death).
