Why do people use ACC?

Honestly why?
It only benefits 1 weapon out of the 2 you use.

Rate benefits both

Accuracy benefits both of your weapons.

Rail gun and shotgun?

I can see rail gun a little but jet flame?

swords/daggers no... shruikens maybe..

Grenade launcher no... assault rifle yes

I just don't find it a usefull endorsement.. it just shrinks the aiming dot and keeps the bullets tighter...

pretty sure you're right besides sniper

accuracy is useful for gunner though

this

I use silver accuracy on my assault because Xenonox does. Also, it practically eliminates the need to ADS, making you much more mobile while still dealing heavy damage.

Sure it has no effect on every weapon but it does affect both primary and secondary weapons. The Assault is a good Pro to test with since both weapons have a circular reticule.

The great thing about MNC and endorsements is that each player can tailor fit a class to their play style. It's all about personal preference.

My Assault build uses Gold Accuracy simply so I don't have to aim down the scope and keep as mobile as possible.

It's not about how many weapons it affects. What matters is how often you use the weapon it does affect and how much more effective you will be with it. I used to run level 3 accuracy on Gunner before his long-range minimum damage got nerfed, and it allowed me to practically be a heavy-duty sniper. Even now, it ensures that as long as you can keep your aim right, just about every bullet you spray will hit.

Very true.

Yes but I don't see why someone would put acc on a support since the I don't see it effect the shotgun due to its range and limits.

You still kill most with a few shots with or without acc if your up close

My understanding is that a Support has no reason to use accuracy, since it doesn't affect either weapon. The reticule changes, but the weapon acts identically.

I think everyone will agree that accuracy is pretty useless on a support.

I run with Gold Acc on my Gunner... better acc= more bullets in 1 target

Acc on a support is just plain stupid.

I was going to say something similar. It makes sense to use in on Assault or Gunner because they make such heavy use of their primary weapon. Other classes not so much.

and this

Just because you can put an endorsement to a class, doesn't necessarily mean you should.

A good example would be an gold accuracy on an support or gold accuracy to an assassin.

While certainly they will still receive the benfit of gold accuracy to the support's shortgun and the assassin's shuriken launcher, there are better choices to focus on then the accuracy endorsement.

On the other hand, adding accuracy endorsement to classes such as the assault or the gunner really benefits their primary weapon and will give you an edge in battle.

Amen.

I use it as a bronze on my Gunner and Assault (both have the same, gold armor/silver rate/ bronze accuracy. I can't see why people feel the need to go above bronze. Each to his own I suppose (postscript: Don't play Assault much, but I know my Gunner is solid)..

Gunner- Gold Acc/Silver for Minigun = awesome for range, brutal for close to mid range. Mortar = useless
Tank- Bronze/Silver Acc for Railgun = ok. Jetgun = useless
Assassin- Acc for Sword/Dagger = lolwut?. Bronze/Silver Acc Shuriken Launcher = ok
Sniper- Gold/Silver Acc for Sniper Rifle = Easier for some to quickscope. Gold/Silver/Bronze Acc for Uzi = Pretty brutal
Support- Any Acc for either the H/H Gun or Shotgun = stupid
Assault- Gold/Silver Acc for Assault Rifle = Reduces need for aiming down sights/Awesome. Any Acc for Grenade Launcher = useless

That's what I thought...
ACC really only benefits guns which shoot streams/waves of bullets which spread.

Minigun/A Rifle/SMG
