    For what it's worth, most of the people against parsers seem to not do the only content that parsers are relevant for. Coincidence? I think not.

    For 95% of the content in the game you can place your face comfortably on the left side of your keyboard, roll it gently to the right and by the time you're all the way on the other side the fight is over. You don't need a parser for expert roulette, most if not all primals, normal mode raids, story trials, class trials, fates, and so on. There's only one type of content where minmaxing really matters and it's that content that needs some sort of parsing available.

    In blade and soul (when I last played) they had damage meters in the 4man modes (equivalent to hard modes/savage if you would) but in the 6man modes (expert roulette/normal mode raid tier) there would be no parser. I fail to see why SE can't do something similar for ff. If you're raiding savage and you don't care about your numbers enough to improve or aren't even slightly interested in how you or others are doing you probably don't belong doing savage to begin with. So the only people that would see parsers are ones that want them and who would benefit from them.

    I wish this sort of attitude would die a quick and dirty death. It isn't true, it has never been true, and it is serves as an excuse for toxic behavior.

    Nothing personal, I just hate the 'faceroll' attitude of a number of posters on these forums.

    I don't think it is meant to be taken literally...but it is true that a lot of the content in this game is very easy.

    Hell, in 24 mans if you did have a person or two actually smashing their faces into the keyboard, you would actually probably still clear.
