I'm currently main-ing dnc. I love the job, use other jobs where needed for events but try to get every ounce out of dnc. Im not a mathemagician by any means though.
Currently, my dnc runs this setup:
Ermines tail / BK+1 (joytoy for low acc stuff like campaign)
Tiphia sting (sturms on violent flourish, sonia's on waltzes)
War hoop if i really need to pull or something, but rare
walmart turban (haste set) Anwig salade (str4 acc10 att5 wsacc15) for ws or high evade, etoile on cures
chiv chain
Brutal earring
Supanomimi
Mirke wardecors (acc+10% DW+3) AF on waltzes, relic on VF
Dusk gloves (haste set), cobra mittens for WS
ecophoria/ulthalems (acc/tp) rajas in place of eco for WS
Foragers mantle
Warwolf belt (need to get swift, but havent organized)
Cobra pants (want etoile for haste build but no drop, will probably still use for WS, no chance of getting barbosas)
Dusk feet (haste build) etoile shoes for ws
swap in etoile shoes and af gloves for steps
i'd like to know what supa and mirke get my dw to and how it helps my joytoy acc
im not sure how much the +3% helps
merits
5/5 reverse 5/5 haste samba
1 fan 1 saber 3NFR 2/5 CP (going 5/5)
Basically i just need some advise on gear choices to switch, maybe i need an acc setup too?

You're doing fine. About the only thing I would change is (aside from getting swift as you mentioned) using life or potent belt for tp/ws since the acc gained from fulltiming warwolf is minimal. After you get swift you'll likely get better performance out of life/potent than warwolf for consistency of ws. That is, unless you always use sushi, in which case switch to marinara pizza if you can or use meats if you feel your acc is good enough. Other choices for neck are pcc or love torque but those might be out of your reach for the time being (chiv chain is fine).
Everything else is quite spot on for good choices. Personally I used my acp and mkd rewards for my heavy armor jobs so I use relic body and haste hat/ohat/voyager sallet for tp/ws.
Suppa is another 5% delay down for dual wield and mirk is obviously 3%. Base DWII from /nin is -15% combined delay, so you'll be up to -23% combined delay. It's a great bonus really but does nothing unless you're dual wielding. The +5 sword skill on suppa is another +4-5acc/att for swords only though.
Joyeuse is best offhanded when things aren't high evasion or if you have sword but no dagger merits. With suppa and capped sword merits but no dagger merits, it'll only be ~10% acc behind your dagger. Not a bad trade off for +50%DA on offhand if you already have the merits for another job (pld, cor, blu, ye-olde-war come to mind), but do make sure the situation can call for it.
If you have no weapon merits, better bet is to go dagger merits if you feel like using them for dnc and use dagger offhand for the harder stuff if /nin. If full dagger merits, then you shouldn't be having any doubts.

I'd use warwolf over potent for WS, normally on XP stuff I try to maintain very high acc (of course I can skip on acc in may spot cause I have a salade with WS acc +15 and acc +10 and I also have a Soil Torque), and on harder stuff (gods) I only WS with BF so there again the acc gain compared to the +2 STR and +5 DEX is minimal.
Other than that, yeah full timing warwolf isn't that great, macro for WS and keep potent/life/swift for tping.
For pants, I use etoile for both tp and WS (though I have AF+1 for a acc setup) +3 STR and +3 CHR is great to pump nice DE (though I can afford to do this because of WS salade again)
for gloves WS, there is enkidu that is a very good piece, start gathering zeni XD, consider blood ring along the way since nuhn (nuhn is a total pushover) and chigre are on same path.
As for the last question, an acc setup is always a good idea if you plan to do other thing than soloing and xp with DNC. I personnaly use a eva set, a acc set, a haste set and a hybrid set (between acc and haste).

im iffy about acc over rajas in my tp build is the 4 acc really worth losing the storetp on swings? I suppose I should get a snipers or +1 if im going to use the acc in that slot if im not breaking some sort of accuracy tier with the +4. Idk if i am though.
Ive added in an augmented life belt (+2 evasion) til i get swift for tping
