Well, you may have posted when it was on page 1, but it's on page 2 for me.

There seems to be a concerted effort this week to saturate the thread with questions on SGRAs...

Oh right...I have my forum options set to show 40 per page, rather than the default 10 (I think?).

Well, they almost answered it:

Quote:CaptainJammo - Can you clarify the role of the Accuracy stat? Right now, it seems lackluster and/or unnecessary for many classes, yet it appears on all of their end game gear.

Georg Zoeller (Principal Lead Combat Designer): Accuracy counters your target's ability to defend (dodge, deflect, etc.) against your attacks. You are correct about the accuracy budget on the current end game gear being too generous for most scenarios - unless you are a dedicated tank killer in PvP, you probably do not need as much as you get from Rakata gear at the moment and you should consider swapping out some mods to support your preferred playstyle.

For the upcoming tier of new gear, we have an improved distribution of stats for both PvP and PvE gear.

This largely confirms what we already knew, without telling us anything useful...



Even with the new tier of gear, it would appear all we can do is deduce the cap from how much the set has - assuming they get it right next time...

Well, it does confirm that our original estimate of 10% was too high, and that 8% is likely closer to reality, since Rakata DPS gear has 10-10.5% on it.

SGRA is gamebreakingzor!!!! I have personally refused to gather any more crit rating gear until they let my female sith warrior flirt with Jaesa Wilsaam

i doubt they will ever answer it. i asked the accuracy question via ingame help function and that's the reply:
screen 1
screen 2

basically:

Quote:We will not engage in ... discussions about game mechanics or provide advice ...

Looks to me like a copypasta from a guideline text -> policy -> will never be answered in any type of q/a.
