JUst a question does spines have an inherent accuracy buff for the drwaing time?

Afraid not. From _Castle_ on the US forums:

To end debate:

base accuracy (for most powers, there is variation within the set)
Broadsword 1.05
Claws 1.00
Dark Melee 1.00
Katana 1.05
Martial Arts 1.05
Spines 1.00

Hmm interesting as MA is supposed to be 1.10 thats good I always wondered why kicking someone in the goolies was more accurate than hitting them with a lump of iron.

Still Claws and Spines should both have an accuracy boost due to draw time. Hell MA shouldn't have one at all.

Spines doesnt have a draw animations after quills...

MA Doesn't have any draw anim at all yet has an accuracy bonus.

IMO All attacks that have a draw weapon anim should have an accuracy bonus, even if the overall set doesn't have one.

I have heard the devs put the acc buff in MA cause felt MA was underpowered at the time (issue 1,2 or 3). There had been lots of whining about MA earlier on.
Dont know if this is true.

Yep, when the game first came out MA was rather poor so it had a 10% acc bonus. When it was changed (around I2 if I remember correctly) the bonus was lowered to 5%.
