    Accuracy

    So how does this stat work exactly? I don't have much FFXI or 1.0 knowledge. Coming from WoW, my assumption would be that its similar it hit rating?

    I'd just like to know if there's a soft cap I'd have to hit with accuracy at lvl 50 to ensure my atks don't miss like in WoW.

    XI, accuracy was pretty important because missing on a "boss" or a end game event could dismiss an entire skillchain and magic burst. Accuracy gear was actually very expensive as well.

    In XIV, I have barely missed on WAR or BRD, and most end game gear has accuracy as a stat already. There is no important skillchaining/magic bursting either. I'd say at this point, don't make it a huge priority until someone proves otherwise.

    Unless I'm mistaken Accuracy is pretty much only an concern on enemies/content that is too high for your level anyways.

    At least in regards to 50, it seems like dps jobs should be capping out on accuracy from your everyday gear. My still gimp BRD gear has a total of +54 accuracy (38 of that coming from the AF pieces), which was good enough to not miss a single shot for an Ifrit Hard or A. Keep I was just running thru. This might change for Coil, but at least for the introductory 50 content accuracy shouldn't be a concern at all.

    Felt like I was missing more hits than I should against Behemoth on my lvl50 MNK. But outside of my AF gear, not everything was up to date, so that could prolly be the reason.

    Thanks for the replies, I'll focus on gearing up and not worry too much on accuracy until otherwise noted.
