Would you like an in-game parser?

If the community wants one, they should have it. I think any form of callout or overlay software would be bad, though.

However, the community must be responsible and own the fact that, as we are now, it will not be used to help players. It will be to avoid the threat of being banned for saying you are kicking people for low dps and select players out of a pool. That will mean less raid participation, and with the danger we start selecting in casual content too. They will be a much harder form of exclusion than gear checks in PF are. If ppl dont realize this and try to counter or mitigate these things, it will hurt players a lot. Everything will be skip soar.

Seriously? Again with this? They are never going to add an in game parser no matter how hard you cry.

What's wrong with that? The dps required to skip soar is incredibly low, literally all it requires is a good opener and your class's basic rotation.

Now I feel slightly better about not changing race because I don't have the gear to fit this glamour I want to do.

I have yet to see anyone seriously consider that if a lot of people had struggled to do what they find basic, maybe that thing isn't all that basic after all. People who are good at something generally suck at being unbiased at a thing's difficulty level, because they can't separate their particular talent from the thing being done.

But what I meant was the whole toxic culture that grew about it. Endless griping and complaining and exaggerating how easy something was or how bad others were.

There is a huge difference between "struggling to do something" and "can't be bothered to do something."

People are lazy. The average person can't even bother being polite.

I learned how to do the HW Dragoon rotation in less than a week simply through looking up Youtube videos. What's stopping anyone else from doing the same? A basic opener wouldn't even entail the more advanced micromanagement people do like shifting around Blood for Blood for that extra 20ish DPS. It's literally the very basics of how to play your job. Hate to say it but you have no business being in EX Primal fights if you can't do the basics of your job.

When a 15 year old can do a great opener or yet; a disabled person playing with their feet, managed to do the old MCH opener
whats your excuse for not doing it?

Well not everyone has the same skillset. Sometimes its not skill at using controls but memory, reaction speed and so on. some are faster others are slower, does that matter? If it stops doing stuff at release its prop obvious, slower people tend to die more, then by all means kick them. But if the duty still gets done, whats the problem? Time saved? thats minimal at best
