Accuracy enhancements
Quote:
Okay, TO's are the lowest level enhancements in the game. You're getting roughly a 5-6% boost per slotted enhancer. While it's not useless, it's not going to make a massive difference in hits and misses at low levels unless you're slotting LOTS of them.
I'm still mostly using the Training enhancements, where do I get the better ones? Do NPC's sell them or do I have to rely on drops and the AH?

Once you hit 12, you can start slotting Dual Origin enhancers. These are roughly double the effectiveness of TOs. You'll start missing less at this point.
Also, if you're running Magic origin, and you have another toon that's completed the Rescuer badge in Faultline, Mr. Yin will sell them special low level Single-Origin enhancers that are double the effectiveness of DOs. Slotting one or two of these pretty much reduce your chances of missing to "not too freaking often".
Note: If you're another origin, look at the link to Mr. Yin to see what you CAN get from him. Because you can mount less of those and double up on Acc or something else and still come out ahead.
Once you hit L22, you can start just mounting up Single Origin enhancers. This is about the time your power choices start gelling REALLY nicely.

The streakbreaker never induces misses, so it cannot "cause" you to miss. However, its possible to "lose" a hit the streakbreaker would have given you if you use very low accuracy attacks with very high accuracy ones. High accuracy attacks will trigger a streakbreaker hit quicker than low accuracy ones**, but the overriding accuracy is the *lowest* one in your current string of misses. So a low accuracy attack can in effect "poison" a miss streak so that the streakbreaker doesn't give you hits as often as it might have. But it never actually gives you a miss: it only overrides the combat system and forces hits when you miss too many times in a row (relative to your accuracy).
I did once find something weird with accuracy on a Dark/Dark scrapper. My attacks seemed to be missing a lot. When I looked at the combat log the misses were mostly due to the Strikebreaker forcing a miss. Oppressive Gloom was not slotted for accuracy and the interaction with the regular attacks caused the Strikebreaker to fire. Turning off Oppressive Gloom made the problem go away temporarily, and slotting accuracy in OG made the problem go away for good.

** technically, I should say "high net chance to hit" will trigger the streakbreaker quicker, because its your net overall chance to hit, and not the accuracy of your power per se. You can use the worst accuracy attacks in the world but if your target is massively defense debuffed (say) and your actual net chance to hit the target is still 95%, that is what the streakbreaker will go off of. Conversely, you can have massive tohit buffs, all the accuracy buffs in the world, and if you're swinging against as buffed Lord Recluse and whiffing, that is what the streakbreaker will go off of also.

Also note, with a hit chance of 90% and above, a streak of *one* is "too long" according to the streakbreaker. If your hit chance is that high, the streakbreaker will never allow you to miss twice in a row.
