Carrion Creepers - Accuracy needed?

[Force Redux]

Quick question for the plant gurus - does Carrion Creepers require any accuracy? I see builds that do not have it, just procs, and I see some builds go with Targeted AOE sets that do have accuracy in the bonuses. THe power says it is 1.0 Accuracy, and it does slot Accuracy enhancements, but its one of those weird powers, so I'm not sure what is required. Any suggestions? I have it six-slotted at present with basic IOs, but looking to use sets/procs on it. Thanks !

I put procs but add one Acc/Dmg or Acc/Dmg/Rech or Acc/Rech etc.      

 

Unless the build has a ton of global accuracy...then I just leave it procs.

Thanks Doc!

Which procs? If I remember rightly some proc way more often than some others.

@Carnifax Here is one of the posts in the ProcMonster thread that discusses that question:

Cool. That makes sense. Thanks for looking. I knew the info was in there *somewhere* but that thread scares me. 

 

Bombardment would be another new AOE proc good for Creepers now too.

Fantastic, I'm going to review.

Does anyone know if global accuracy (from set bonuses) is passed on to psuedo pet summons like Carrion Creepers?       My experience from MM pets, was they do not get your global bonuses for accuracy or damage, so my hunch was psuedo pets wouldn't either...

No idea.

 

But I believe there is a tab for combat info for pets much as there is for characters, does their chance to hit provide any clue?

[Doc Ranger]

Hmmm. All I know is I 5 slot. 3 dmg procs and 2 Dmg/Rchg from those proc sets just to get them over the perma threshold. 
 

I never really see them miss. They seem to do the job without Acc.

My gut, at this point essentially 8 yrs+ out of date, tells me no global and/or slotted accuracy doesn't work on a pseudo-pets attacks.  It would just apply to the initial cast.  Not sure about something like Tactics ... but if your CC are dealing damage and global accuracy from sets isn't anything to write home about I'm thinking it doesn't require it.

For now I have my Creepers six slotted with Artillery for the Range Defense. I will consider proccing it out later.
