Diminishing return on scaling Targeting Systems to the 9s

Contemplating a respec and I'm just wondering if anybody has actual hit rate/DPS figures for the extra 2.5% accuracy gained from scaling from 6 to 9. From what I see, my target's defense is likely going to be much higher than whatever accuracy I have even with [Acc]x3 weapons.

My escort has about 70~75% bonus defense just moving about with the slider on full whereas my bonus accuracy sits around 25%. Even with [Acc]x3 I'm still 20% below what I would assume to be my targets defense (worse if my opponent has subterfuge Boffs).

Thanks.

    When playing in a premade, defense and especially Accuracy are greatly overestimated. I dont play with Acc, and I dont suffer any consequences. Its different in 1on1 (here Acc matters extremely), but thats another story, because pvp is groupcentered (5vs5). If you pug it also matters a little bit more than with a premade, but I wouldnt call that real pvp, since team-setup is bound to TRIBBLE up.

    Accuracy trumps all hands down in any situation whereas the others are extremely situational needing very specific criteria to work which can be extremely difficult to create consistantly.

    Most premades that I know of run full acc weapons where possible.

    Consistency is king in PvP and right now acc is a consistent modifier.

    [ACC] is still preferred in premade PvP outside of very specific niches.

    One exception to the general rule is mine weapons, where [CrtH] is always preferable.
