I am in full raid buffs with rakata reflex stim. In this build I have 651 power, 360 accuracy, 76 crit, 165 surge, this gives me the totals you see in my SS here http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/692...15502.jpg/ which are 104.75 ranged acc/ 114.75 tech acc, 30.45 crit, 70.15 crit multiplier and bonus dmg of 606.3

Here is the first parse with the 2 five minute fights

For the second 2 parses I went with a more balanced build of crit/surge/acc. The numbers for them are 436 power, 210 accuracy, 360 crit, 315 surge. You can see the totals in this SS here http://imageshack.us/f/525/screenshot2012050117073.jpg/ of 100.84 ranged acc, 110.84 Tech acc, 39.82 crit, 76.70 crit multiplier and bonus dmg 556.8

Here are the 2 five minute parses for this build

http://www.torparse.com/a/23451

In the heavy acc/power build I had a miss rate of 4.79 and 4.82, on the balanced build i had a miss rate of 4.11 and 6.1. Not sure why the big disparity of miss, but I know from other parses in balanced build I usually was around 6%.


From what I can see right now for me at least the balanced acc/crit/surge build is the way to go for me, maybe I don't have enough power yet, but I was pretty close to the 700 Aerro had been talking about. Right now I will continue with the balanced build but in a week or two I will re-evaluate and see if I can pump some more power in and see if it is better.

Kudo's to you for taking the time and money to do all that for everyone!

The difference in dps is practically nothing since I've tested it. If they've concluded its 10% or less then 8% post 1.2 I have not seen. Check this info in the Game Mechanics thread.

Side note--Raid player mentioned other night he had less then 8% and still his logs didn't show any special misses other then normal ones. From parse it was about 60dps loss vs mine. Although I didn't see his Acc myself so I can't say much.

Ops bosses have 10% defense, this was shown in the Game Mechanics Thread (although it wasn't shown how it was known). However, 10% hit doesn't give a huge benefit, and in short encounters someone with 8% hit could have zero misses even though Rail Shot and Unload have a 2% chance to miss.

Yea I am aware of that now I apparently didn't see that everyone figured out that 10% was the better of the two. Thanks for pointing that out though. I am actually going to see how the two %'s vary as I change the mods and see the difference.
