To Bards using parsers

[savant07]

Titan is the best fight for DPS data comparable to real events (e.g. Coil) in my opinion as it tests your ability to maintain DPS levels and your rotation while moving. The average PUG DPS is in the 100-120 DPS range. I have never PUG'd with a DPS over 170. I average 145-165 on Titan and I've parsed 30+ fights. Relic+1 competent FC players are 180-200+. My gear is not terrible, but not amazing; Ifrit's Bow, DL head / body / waist, Toxotes hands / feet / legs, and a mix of Toxotes and HQ crafted accessories.

What I find the most interesting is the damage taken aspect of FFXIVAPP's parser. It does not seem to pick up Tumult damage (at least it doesn't for me), so I always check after fights to see who is actually a competent player. I pride myself more on taking a 0 in the damage taken tab than another 10 DPS in the damage for tab.

Wow you PUG titan O_O My server can't even do titan consistently lol...

Yep, and our PUGs are no better. Trying to avoid bothering the FC as they're generally locked up in Coil when I get home from work late. DPS are the bane of Titan; I really wish more people would parse themselves and see just how bad they are sinking the team.
