Then you got other factors which affect damage like when people afk to use the restroom or eat, people soloing their own mobs, players that have other utilities (like stunners, backup healers, backup sleepers), jobs that lack critical based WS's, and people with higher tp gain (not necessarily higher DoT) pulling out bombshell WS's killing a mob before others have a chace to get their own tp.

Just wayyy too many things out there that would mess with results, but thats just me.
This isn't the parser being inaccurate. These are conditions being non-ideal. Parsers tell you exactly how you (and potentially others) performed. All it's doing is automatically reading the chat log and running some stats on what it reads.
