    An ingame parse by itself won't do much other than tell you numbers. Now when there's dps checks that require both dps to do more than spam their DoT abiliy over and over, that's when the reality-check comes in. Though it will help to quantify numbers and at least back up the times where healers/tanks are somehow outdpsing a dps.

    The issue with dps checks is the lack of direct responsability. Raid wise there will always be someone with a parse up, it's mandatory for raiding even with SE policies being against it. A party that doesn't use a parse will always say "dps is low" or "dps needs to gear up more" or even push it to the healers when a dps check is failed, at the end of the day, without a number the player(s) who weren't pulling their weight will never know they were under the average dps for their class.
