    Just a question : why so many DPS are aiming for the 100% accuracy hard cap ? Is it a new rule that, if you miss 0.2% of your skills, you are a fucking noob, even if your DPS is higher ? For a tank, I can understand, but from a DPS point of view, the highest DPS, the better. And, actually, some test are showing that the highest DPS on Twintania doesn't require this hard cap.

    The possible DPS loss from losing a chain is my guess (though I'm still not certain if you completely lose the chain or not with a miss); if this is the case I can see why acc is valued so much higher than any secondary, since I doubt the difference could be made up with the increase in secondaries you would get going from "capped" to 95% (Flank) or less.

    Missing an auto-attack honestly isn't a big deal...but what happens when you miss a Life Surged, BFB-Full Thrust? That's 1300 damage (for me, on average) lost. Or Chaos Thrust misses? Now I need to Impulse Drive and Disembowel again, which is also a good bit of DPS lost (especially if I just used BFB)

    So yes, hitting the Acc cap is a pretty big deal...

    Anyway. If you miss a part of your combo, you lose the chain. Every stage of the TTT IDC needs to hit for most DPS. Other DPS can live with a miss, Dragoons can't as we heavily rely on our combos.
