Getting bullied out of your own party sure is fun

There's one lesson you should take away from this..

Run your own parser.

That way, you have evidence of what's really happening with the damage, instead of being forced to believe what someone else says.

There's one constant among the idiots that play this game and fail everything they try, they always try to blame someone else. It's up to you to protect yourself and know what's really going on. It saves a lot of time and stress, and gives you sufficient ammunition to remove problem players from your groups.

Could not have said it better myself.

Here is the thing, and please don't take offence to it. Most BLMs preform a bit low against Titan and Ifrit Ex. Not because the job is bad or the player is bad, but because the two fights for a BLM experience is a big factor. The more you know about the fight, the better you do. I can't say if your damage was low or not, not sure if they were just outright lying. Only you can test it and know for sure. Typically, in Ifrit and Titan you are suppose to do 20%+ of the total damage to be with everyone else. From what I have seen, geared or not, inexpedience BLM will struggle to achieve 15%. However, I can assure with experience and the right reaction to it, you will be doing respectable amount of damage.

Good Luck, and don't let such silly players ruin your own fun.

parsers are a freakin' plague on MMOs.. I wish they would all be destroyed.

It's how you use the tool, or do you seriously think the DBs would suddenly become nice people if there were no parsers?

Feminine Hygiene Product containers wouldn't be any less so, but I kinda imagine that for every one person who knows what the numbers mean and understands their limitations (not to mention weaknesses in actual parsers), there are many more who take the numbers at face value and make assumptions based on incomplete information. Misunderstood data can be more damaging than lack of data.

Hm.. .no I suppose not... but--parties wouldn't kick you for doing 209 when you could be doing 210. Or whatever the high number for damage is.
