The DMG+1 on the HQ helps you infinitely more than the accuracy or lower delay (though those are both nice). Base damage is insanely crucial at beginner levels.
Think of it this way: You can either hit for 6 damage 76/100 times, or hit for 7 damage 75/100 times. That extra point of damage adds to make up for the 2 less accuracy over and over.
It's no contest, base damage wins and wins hard. This is important to note because I hate seeing people that hold onto this sword after stronger ones come out, just because this one has accuracy on it.
Include this in your budget when deciding to start PLD, THF, or BLU. This sword could decide between life and death in those early solo levels. Especially since it's nearly impossible to get +acc anywhere else.
