Parsers aren't ruining the game, its the people who could care less what their abilities do or in what order they need to be pressed just to perform a simple basic rotation. Lets say for instance you get a MNK who only uses bootshine, not true strike, or snap punch. I've seen these kinds of people somehow get to level 50. Then you get these said people who don't know what 90% of their abilities do because they can't be bothered to take a sec and read.

THEN these people try and queue into ex primals or attempt HW content. Someone then questions why they are doing what they are doing because they can't even get the basic concept of their job. You're saying that these people who gives zero cares in the world and then expects people to carry them, they aren't ruining the game?

Parsers let people know if someone isn't pulling their weight, shouldn't really matter when it comes to dungeons but when it comes to end game content, everyone needs to pull their weight. If you can't even do the bare minimum then you hold back your raid group's progression. You have 2 choices, see if maybe you can try and improve yourself....or back out of your Savage and give your spot to someone else who will help your raid/friends get to where they want to be.

If SE really wanted to be completely free of parsers, they would completely remove dps checks, enrages, or just remove raiding altogether. If that happens then people don't get challenged, no challenge = boredom = less players = game will die.

I've also played WoW before, everyone and their mother has a parser in that game. I've been in dungeons where you could put your character on auto attack and no one says anything at all. Even in raid finder, you could get like 5-10 people underperforming or afk and no one really complains or mention anything about it. The only time people would say anything is if you kept wiping or you're screwing up mechanics.

Parsers aren't ruining the community, its the players. You'll have bad apples from both the Elitest spectrum and the Casual spectrum. If people can't figure that out from playing on MMOs or just being on the internet in general.....then I just feel bad for them.
