Does the +dex effect have more or less +accuracy effect than sword madrigal?

i would also liek to know
I have tested this a lot and I do not notice a large difference between Dextrous Etude and Sword Madrigal. Both obviously decrease the amount of misses, but it is hard to judge which is better by scanning the log.
Usually if I ask another bard (>32) they swear by sword madrigal, but maybe that will change with the Etude +2 instrument. (I'm not up there yet)
My approach as bard is...
- if there are a lot of misses, then Sword Madrigal and Dextrous Etude...the bottom line is that the melees HAVE to be able to connect.
- if there are infrequent misses, then Valor Minuet I and Valor Minuet II (rarely the case in xp parties)
- Otherwise I will sing VMII and alternate between DE and SM (to continue my testing).
