Would you like an in-game parser?

[Orbiaus]

It's silly to be a damage dealer and not actually know how much damage your doing is. When I switched from my healer to dps the first time I had no clue how to improve. I remember doing a trial or something and I thought my dps was okay but someone said my numbers and I was shocked how low they were. That made me improve and since then I ask people with a parser what damage I do. If I never knew my numbers I would be a burden to the team at higher level raids.

Egh I don't see this thread getting any more of a reaction from SE as the numerous others in the past but for the spirit of things I voted for a personal parser.

We need more positive people like you. This is a perfect example of how you should react. Many however won't and many doesn't get that's a real big issue too. I was excactly the same in the past. I was so bad and some one told me so many times I had to step up.

People are afraid of accountability, cmon, healers and Tanks have had to deal with this since forever. Why are the DPS so afraid of being called out?

YoshiP and SE I am the Casual BAD DPS from the General PLAYERBASE and I speak for myself and my noob friends.

All of us want DPS Meter and we think it is mandatory.

Because there is no in game DPS meter (aka parser),
therefore some of my friends need to use the unofficial, prohibited, use as your own risk, but don't tell others, officially disallowed, unofficially allowed parser.
Then some friends found so many VALUE-ADDED feature comes with the parser.


I want to say please give us in game DPS meter, and you should ban all 3rd party tools.

Why are only DPS players being called out? If SE implements a parser, tanks and healers will need to pump out as much dps as possible. Healers and tanks don't get a free pass either.

[KarstenS]

Why are only DPS players being called out?

Because this role is lacking in transparency compared to the other 2 roles.

Because this role is lacking in transparency compared to the other 2 roles.

With my DRK, how do you know I'm not just doing my aggro combo and not using any of my other abilities to dps?

i very much doubt that an official dps parser would have the same functionality as a 3rd party tool being developed since eq2 :P

i doubt people are afraid accountability , they are more afraid from the people who cant use such a tool responsible (in a non jerk way :P ) ^^
