add an in game parser please!!!

Frankly I don't like how SSS does either: it really tells me nothing about my class except that "You can kill "insert name here". I could kill the "Thordan dummy" with my lowest dps AND my highest dps class. Time was the same. So it means my dps is good? How? It tells me nothing about it and I really found it useless because it only says that I got enough to kill a boss, yeah, but on the best case scenario with no mechanics and my cd done all at once on a burst.

On the other hand, that link is very useful: it might not be accurate, but it definitely helped me to have a rough estimate of my own dps so kudos on whoever made it.

The dummy's health is actually adjusted to make up for the lack of mechanics, and then a little bit of extra. If you can take down the dummy easily enough, you should definitely have enough DPS for the encounter if you don't mess up the mechanics.

That's why a parser is better: it tells you right away if you're doing well with mechanics and gives you a better estimate depending on the situation: in this case Thordan's mechanics. That link isn't 100% reliable, I give you that, but it's better than no information and allows me to have a better grasp at my own damage in the best case scenario (aka, no deaths).

However, the dummy itself is useless because of zero amount of feedback given (when you kill it, it just destroys itself and that's it) and because it only has one situation: being idle. And as far as I know, bosses aren't idle when an encounter is going on. If it gave me some feedback, even a rank from S to D, it would've some help too but it's not the case.

And guess what? No, I'm not good for doing Thordan. Because my dps isn't enough for that: the boss is based more mechanics than raw dps, making SSS useless and, worst of all, totally unreliable.

I haven't tried sephirot but again, the dummy won't tell me much either.
