Learning is fine, if the group is ok with it. Parsers also show damage taken so you can see what is killing people. But we already have tools to see people who don't do mechanics, eyeballs and healers. You're right about the parser and high dps. You just have to go to a Web page where some math nerd took a bunch of parses and crunched the numbers to figure out the optimal way to play the class. BTW I love you math nerds and all the people who put in the time and work on theory crafting.
