it's not a bug.

Fix it by getting gear with accuracy boosts on it.

Since its accuracy is 75%, you should expect it to fizzle once every four tries. An unstoppable treasure card would raise it to 100%.

I Can Vauge for this being a bug, I tested it with my friends Pyromancer and his gear gives him a 30 something boost on accuracy, the fire dragon fizzled a few times and so did a couple other spells. I was fighting lost souls to test it and I figured that having over 100% accuracy would mean I cant fizzle...

it doesn't mean that at all.

The game is full of hidden modifiers you never see. Spells, rounds, turns, battles, areas, worlds, and so on all have modifiers to things like your power pip chance, accuracy and so on. 100% isn't a guarantee that you'll never fail though you should fail a lot less than someone without the boost.

Like the person above me said!!
Areas also have their own individual fizzle rates as well for example, try 100% accuracy on unicorn way.
