@Colorful: I apologise for taking offence at your previous message. Looking back through the rest of your posts, you weren't trying to be offensive at all, so I apologise for that. You were only really trying to prove a point that ran in-line with the topic while I swayed mine to another perspective.
Thats all well and good that you can eyeball it. But that whole side of it only involves the "if something is going wrong." It doesn't do the part of letting people test their own rotations and see which are better. Or any of the other information you gain from a parser.

While I would agree that it is better than those fools that go "hurr durr, use the aggro bar!" It still is totally reliant on a healer or someone else knowing all role fairly intmately, and being able to constantly watch all enemies as well as the party list, while performing their own job. Where a parser shows a lot more at a glance. With your method, you run into "I know how to play! Your the one holding us back". With a parser, your response is easily "The numbers tell a very different story."
