DPS for Alex Savage Turn 1 Final Boss?

[Allyrion]

My point wasn't that the hate meter is your "parser' like you are trying to make it sound. My point is, if you are failing DPS checks in the game, no parser is going to make it easier or help you clear it. The simple fact you are failing the DPS check in itself is your gauge of whether or not your groups DPS is up to snuff. If you fail a DPS check once, maybe 2 more times, you know the group isn't capable and its time to reform. This attitude that a parser is "necessary" is actually kind of hilarious to me. So obvious you all came from WoW.

That's cute. Ignorance is bliss, right?
You fail with a group, so you move on to another, and that's your answer?
Without ever knowing your performance, who was doing well and who wasn't.

Maybe you're the one who is doing badly. You wouldn't even know.
You'd just move from group to group bringing people down, till you find some people awesome enough to carry you through content.

Or maybe you're amazing, and that's great.
But you can always be better. And testing different rotation changes and how they affect your dps isn't possible without numbers behind it.

And that reform idea doesn't fly if you're in a static.
In that case, you're with a set amount of people and you need to evaluate everyone and see what can be done to bring everyone up to par for the content you're pushing.
Unless you just give up on everything till you can over-gear it considerably.

That's your prerogative, but not everyone gives up at the sign of failure.
Some do whatever they can to get ahead, from World First crazy strats to even the everyday statics that are trying to push the start of Savage now.

We're all trying to do our best and have fun, parsers don't conflict with that.
It's just numbers and information to have a baseline on analyzing your own performance as well as other information over the course of the encounter.

It's not "necessary".
It's just avoids the situation that people aren't aware of their own performance when in a party.
It allows people to improve.

And if you don't know how a parser can help make it easier to clear by using it to improve yourself, that's on you.
That's expected if you're the type of person that rage-quits after 2 wipes anyway.
