First off, I am drunk. This is usually the state of mind when I post anything so be kind. The point here is accuracy while moving. As far as I've been able to see, we are the only profession that actually has this. Why is it then that when I move my accuracy modifier actually drops? I would think that since I actually have this mod, it should go up, no? Off the top of my head I get +30 accuracy while moving. I'm no math wizard so I'll not embarass myself further by pretending but shouldn't my little +/- number next to a target actually go up when I run for my life? Could this be the answer to a few of our balance issues? We do jack for damage compared to other profs. Is it possible they made this mod initially to keep us alive longer by dropping accuracy to those targeting us while raising our hit ratio? As far as I've seen this does nothing. Any thoughts?

Accuracy while moving only reduces the penalty associated with firing on the move. And Carbineers get it too

What exactly does that MEAN?! I honestly don't notice a difference at all between this and standing around getting smoked in the head by a rifleman or a boot up my ass by melee prof. Myabe this needs to be changed?
