Would you like an in-game parser?

[KarstenS]

Did you let people die ? No. Then it's fine.
Did the tank lose enmity ? No. Then it's fine.

Its all a thing of the perspective.

But when you answer both questions with "Yes", your "argument" is instantly dead.

If you want to slack in a party of mine, you shouldn't even be in it after all.

So we're back to this ? I'm a slacker because I don't want someone to parse me ?

PLD is, saddly, a DPS penalty, because it does frequently less damage than WAR or DRK. So, when going blind and having no idea of how skilled the tanks are, you start with less potential DPS. Oh, and if it wasn't clear, I don't like PLD being rejected for it as much as I don't like this DPS number obsession.

But when you answer both questions with "Yes", your "argument" is instantly dead.

So why do we still nitpick on DPS when we can answer "Yes" to their question ?

Why you nitpick thats okay everybody can see when a tank or a healer is failing to do its job?

They should be on the same level of intransparency like its the case for DPS player.

Feel free to make suggestions, how to implement such a feature.

You know as well as I do that parsers are used to judge Healers and Tanks, not just DPS jobs.

It's one thing to complain about the black mage who is casting blizzard III over and over again (It's also rather obvious. There is a distinct lack of booms. Don't need a parser there). It's a completely different thing to nitpick about the black mage you met in Antitower who does everything he's supposed to do in combat but can't meet the magic number you feel black mages should do for whatever reason.
