DPS who do 4k worth of damage = garbage tier

[HyoMinPark]

All I've ever said is that you don't really need a parser to see that a DPS is performing badly, and that terrible DPS is reflected in the enmity list. I never said, anywhere, that it's on par with or as reliable as a parser, or that it should be used in place of one.

You are absolutely wrong. I can burst for anywhere from 8,000+ to 12,000+ on BRD, depending on how lucky I get in my opener with procs. I can Tactician immediately afterwards to drop my enmity to either 4th (when other DPS are using their enmity tools/tanks are Provoke+Shirking) or 8th (no one is using enmity tools so, when I drop 50% of my enmity, I drop to 8th)...and STILL be top DPS for a considerable minute, sometimes longer.

BRDs also creep up to 2nd fairly often because they burst every 80 seconds, and only have enmity dumps over quellers...yet will be fourth in terms of overall damage. How can you possibly tell all of this without a parser? You absolutely cannot.

What are you going to say to WHMs in Neo or God Kefka? They are generally second on enmity because of the sheer power of their heals, yet dead last on DPS? By the way, Lucid doesn't help enough to lower them by much the next time Almagest or Heartless Archangel comes around.
