Confirm: Concealment Operatives DO NOT need accuracy?


Recommended Posts

Hey all. I have posted this before on other threads. But I want to confirm this before I change all my Rakata/Champion/BM gear. Most of tier 2 and all of tier 3 gear has accuracy. I am considering replacing all those lvl 25 initiative enhancements with lvl 22/24 Adept and 22 Battle Enhancements to increase my power, surge and crit. Thoughts? I will be doing this for PvP and PvE gear.

 

My plan is to shoot for 38% crit unbuffed and 82%surge. I hear those are the sweet spots. After that I will stack power.

yes accuracy has no use except for our auto-attack, all other abilities are non-dodgeable tech powers.

It's quite sad BW not just screwed the class-design, but the gear too.

Thats too funny. I have been hearing the extra accuracy over 100 goes into armor penetration. Not sure how much dps that would actually add compared to the other stats.

unfortunately that's a false myth, it does not give armor penetration!

The misconception comes from the fact that extra accuracy reduces the enemy DEFENSES. However defenses actually mean enemy dodge/parry/block/whatever and not armour rating. And, just like accuracy, defenses only work for white damage, which operatives don't use...

 

So Yeah.... Accuracy is 100% useless for Operatives.

Oh bummer. I need to fix some of my gear too. For god sake reducing defense sounds like it should help shiv. This whole no talking and no documentation and no info thing is a pain in the ***.

I don't udnerstand why they add so much accu on the pvp items, then? They can not be THAT dumb? If we do not need any accuracy... why the **** does PvP gear has it on?

That is a great question. Apparently the people who itemized stats were given poor information as to how to do it.

So they have sepperate teams, for itemization? I mean... they should know it NOW... why no fix? Sigh... im shocked by that much stupidness.

I believe Accuracy probably will come into play more with higher tier end game bosses. Right now, if you're concealment, it doesn't help go to over 100%. It does affect your very few ranged attacks, which you might end up using while running away/to bosses (since you know, we have no gap closer), but it's not something worth stacking the stat for, obviously.
