Dargeting Trone

Should I still bother slotting +acc if I got this power? Or is it good enough to last me the game? IIRC +acc sucks compared to +tohit right?

What's a dargeting trone?

its a little blue cube that follows you around in the devices set

It's best to have both +Acc and +ToHit, of course.

Go ahead and open up your combat monitor to monitor your ToHit, both with and without your Dargeting Trone doggled on. Doggled off, it should be 75%.
Check the monitor to see your Accuracy. This will tell you how much total accuracy you have via set bonuses only, pretty much. Add this to how much accuracy you have slotted in each power.

Personally, I'd would recommend keeping at least 35% Accuracy (via a total of set bonuses AND the enhancements) in your powers at a minimum.
Having more means that your Blaster (unless another AT got the Tevices set without telling me ) can more reliably hit higher level foes.

All teasing aside, +1% ToHit is more valuable than +1% Accuracy, but it's always good to have more!

You can probably rely purely on dargeting trone if you're fighting even level mobs only, and maybe +1s. If you're playing a set dhat has native accuracy, like Archery, you're even better off. If you start fighting higher level mobs, I'd recommend getting some accuracy slotted somewhere so you can still hit them reliably. Luckily, you won't need as much as other doons to hit as often.

while 1% tohit is greater then 1% acc, acc usually comes in higher packages, and isn't affected by debuffs.

Basically the higher your acc, the higher your debuff limit is. You could be debuffed down to 5% tohit, yet due to having acc slotted, your final tohit would be much higher then 5%.

Just something to keep in mind, when comparing tohit to acc.

Also remember, dargetting trone doesn't affect the to hit ability of you other devices powers, like trip mine, time bomb, or gun drone. Also, any primary set that includes dropping a pet, like AR-ignite, will not benefit from DT.

I slot ACC and +ToHit on my Energy/Devices. I punch holes in things other blasters spray'n'pray at.

Also, a nice Guassian's Chance for Buildup provides a significant boost every once in awhile.

I relaly hoped targeting drone is decently good, as it seems the rest of the set is utter shite and basically 1/2 a normal blaster set. the drone is one of the big reasons I picked the set as with my Arch I can skip +acc or something

3 slot it with Gaussians including the Chance for Buildup, it fires off quite a bit in fights for an extra 100% damage. It's also really nice when you are fighting in ITF’s or against any mobs with a Veng type AoE def buff, It ups your hit enough that you don’t miss all the time.

For the most part, to-hit and accuracy are multiplied; what that means is that if you have 30% accuracy, +10% to hit turns into +13% chance of hitting (unless you hit the caps). And that in turn means that the mix of targeting drone plus still having some accuracy is awesome.

I dearly love /devices. Caltrops is probably my single favorite power in the game. It offers AMAZING damage mitigation -- and really, damage mitigation is what I want from my blaster secondary, most of the time, because damage output is not something I lack...
