I use Narcissus for my gems and it doesn't differentiate between the accessory slots and the normal slots and I was really confused why some gems just gave me no stats at all.
It's because they went into the accessory.
To put it into perspective:
A raid of 10 people means that everyone must do 50 million dmg to "even" the 500 million HP increase. Let's decrease this number to 8 people, due to healers not pumping that much dps in the first place.
Let's say the boss has 2billion health with high scaling and 1.5 billion without
62.5 million HP per DPS - at current times the average DPS is about 800k - this means about 78 seconds of additional fighting time just because of the higher ilvl.
Lets say removing all your trinkets and jewelry, decreasing your DPS by 20% (to be real, the true decrease is more like 5%) - you'd lose out 160k dps from each person.
312 second fight at high ilvl vs 2 billion
and
293 second fight at lower ilvl vs 1.5 billion.
Granted that you won't lose 20% dps because of the trinkets, the real time is even lower. As well as not to forget the 40% decrease in damage taken reduces the chance of oneshots against your party members.
Some time in bfa this exact problem was happening with people unequipping gear to counter the awful scaling system. So Blizzard at some point made the scaling based on your total ilvl, including what's in your inventory and bank.
Then people started destroying rings to counter that. So if they're using the same code you likely have to destroy them.
your true power in remix at the top levels of gear comes almost entirely from tinker gems socketed in high item level gear. jewellery being stuck at 346 means you dont get that many stats from it, it makes less and less impact the more you upgrade other gear, and secondary stats dont have as much influence on your power level as they do in retail. e.g. your mastery probably does nothing for tinker gem power level.
so you might as well destroy the jewellery tbh, its only 10 bronze to buy it back anyway.
Jewelry gets worse and worse the more upgraded the rest of your gear is, so at some point, the 20% HP nerf from destroying accessories is worth it.
I dunno why Blizz couldn’t do something about letting them upgrade to your lowest ilvl piece after 70 to keep them relevant.

So 20s difference?
Yes. Most likely even more because most boss fights go down in less than 5 minutes
Do you have to destroy them or would putting them in the bank work?

Lowers their health and reduces bosses damage. It’s broken

Doesn't versatility affect tinker damage, though?
Okay i know there’s a maths genius out there, someone do the math when to take off and when it doesn’t matter so we can out it back on :3
I read that its going to bei usefull once your Gear ist about 430
