I know this is a noob question, but I am pretty much a noob when it comes to knowing what the caps are.

All I read on how to gear Thf is knowing whether you've capped acc. Can anyone give me any insight to how much the cap is so I know how much accuracy I should be gearing for? For TP mainly, since my DE is doing decent enough damage with what I have to work with so far.

Accuracy cap is 95%, and how much accuracy you need to reach that is based on whether you use one handed or two handed weapons. For example, my War's accuracy on Colibri meripo mobs is at 91% without food, but two-axes, it's somewhere around 65%.

I've been using this program for a while.

It's really handy for creating simulations of your gear setups and getting a visual number of how your accuracy is against certain level monsters with xxx evasion. The standard is level 81 and 337 evasion, which again is that of meripo Colibri. So if you're fighting Mamool Ja or sky gods or whatever, you can expect your accuracy to be a bit lower.

Fixed, but other than that you're right.

Fixed that for you.

Edit**

Level 81: Defense 322, Evasion 334, VIT 67, AGI 67
Level 82: Defense 327, Evasion 339, VIT 67, AGI 67

And using 82 339 407 Total Acc is 95% Acc,

I use 82 339 because if you cap on the 82's you're capped capped, 81 334's take only 398 Total Acc which is actually a decent difference.

Thanks so much, the calculator really seems to make things clear for me.
