DPS for Alex Savage Turn 1 Final Boss?

[EdwinLi]

Ya getting Oppressor to 60% or lower is the basic thing required to pass A1 Savage.

This is the same rule for Alex 1 Story but Alex 1 story is more forgiving if players can make up for the loss after 0.5 spawns. Savage it is basically required to hit the 60% or lower mark with current gears.

We already do that mate. Se don't care. Feel free to care though, by all means.

Sure "mate!" If you fail a DPS check, you fail a DPS check. You dont need a parser to tell you that. If you look you can see (clearly) which DPS is doing the most damage simply by the hate meter. If you think that a parser is going to change *anything* about a group failing to meet a DPS check, then they forgot about what a DPS check is. Go back to WoW with your 3rd party unnecessary (but lets act like its so necessary!!!!) BS.

That doesn't work at all, let alone clearly.

That is the most deceiving piece of information. An aggro meter being used to gauge DPS is like looking some bananas to tell me how ripe my oranges are.

Summoner must be by far the weakest dps by this logic. If you use quelling then you are especially terrible O.o

Hey can we act like parsers aren't against the TOS or anything?

I have never heard anyone get banned for posting dps numbers here, even posted a screenshot direct from ACT and nothing happened to them. So either SE doesn't care enough to bother or are only after the ones abusing the tool.

Oh the fun to be had if you screw people as Ninja when others judge by the enmity meter. :3

So how many floors of Alex savage have you cleared? Keep whining impotently because it's all you can do.

A trick in the final phase, after the very last jump, is to have Tanks and Healers grab one add each and then completely ignore them

Melee place resin like in first phase, we all stack on one side of the boss for first resin so melee can still smack Oppressor and keeping resin out of the way.

Thing on Faust is you have to look at Faust him/her/itself's incoming damage, looking at people's encounter DPS will give you wrong results as certain jobs (mnk, drg, brd, sch, smn, mch?) have AoE attacks that they use in their normal single target rotation (elixir field, geirskogul, flaming arrow, shadow flare, etc) that will hit the adds and thus inflating their numbers if your OT is tanking them close to Faust.

Even without hitting adds to pad Faust is a training dummy as BLMs can dont have to move out of pinnochio and BRDS can WM from a static point for 100% of the fight. (Yes I call it Pinocchio :P )

No, you can't. Ever heard of Quelling strikes and Elusive jump? 1 Person doing 100 DPS less than they should be to beat the enrage is not going to show either. Also the enmity bar shows the enmity at that time, it fluctuates up and down between spike and constant damage. It won't show the average over the fight which is what parsers do. It won't show you if someone has any misses on the boss which can cut down on average DPS, especially for combo classes like MNK and DRG.

If you clear content when it has echo and over gearing it, it is less important for parsers as you get carried by echo. Especially with FCoB. But when it's bleeding edge and you are the minimum ilvl then every point of DPS counts to get the clear.

And here it's finally revealed that tanks are actually the kings of DPS, closely followed by White Mages. Enmity = DPS, so it makes sense, right? It doesn't sound any more crazy than what you're proposing here. Several classes actually have skills that reduce enmity, which makes the enmity meter a very poor substitute for a DPS meter.
