I would like bleed a lot more if that extra 20% was stackable; as it stands using a bleeding attack is pretty much pointless if the mob is already bleeding. I only use a bleeding attack to open the fight and typically about 10 seconds later when the first bleed wears off, mainly when I am soloing or in duels too. The duration seems pretty variable. You can check the system window to see when it wears off then use another bleeding attack without wasting creds on a bleeding attack you dont need. It is good to throw into counterattacks as well.

The 20 - 35% that I mentioned is what I get when I stack. I believe an individual bleed far less than that. Which is why some argue that it's useless in a fast kill enviorment. My philosophy is every little bit helps and bleeding helps maintain aggro if your tanking, regardless of how much dmg it does.

Accurate attack is useless against mobs at or below your level. You're talking about level 200+, and most mobs are well below that level. Even against level 260 mobs my bleed often seems to be more effective than acc attack, and I am only level 230. For a level 250 melee, accurate attack is almost useless.

Against mobs below - yes, against same lvl (on practice) still increase chances of hit 'full dmg'.

You often fighting mobs below your lvl? I only on trips/treks/events/etc...
Same for 'lvl250'. "Skill for events". And still usefull against "boss mobs".
What is more usefull bleed or inc+acc - WE cant know for sure (while no detailed info)... and can only guess

Lukati,

If you want to find a excellent or supreme 1H spear talk to Pero or Gecker. Pero is the leader of the "Aden Artisans" and can craft q190 spears and Gecker one of the high officers in the same guild. He just crafted me a supreme q120 1H spear of damage. It rocks.
