I was in a sephirot ex clear party the other day, and one of the nin's commented that he was jealous of the rest of our dps. Checked his gear, mix of 220s/230s, 230 weapon, no melds.. So nothing overtly bad. Mention of DPS made me assume he ran a parser.

Friend checked his own after, and said nin was about 400 dps under the other 3 of us. He had glaring rotation errors (and never used his own trick attack). Having the tools (and internet to search rotations) won't always save you.

..we didn't clear anyway. hopefully he compared his data to the other nin for some tips. Parsers might be nice to have in game for some reasons, but it won't save everyone.
