So, can we just ban damage meters already.

Heh, in fairness, in an optimal setting both healers have grey healing. I moreso try to look at how close the HPS is, and if they're not close together to see what the overheal is on the healer with the higher healing is. If the HPS is like 13k vs 7k, but the 13k has 65% overheal, I wouldn't consider the second healer bad at all, since over half of the other healers healing was unnecessary.

Afaik fflogs already excludes the overheal in the actual HPS numbers. So it would be 13k effective healing and 65% MORE on top which was pure overheal.

Regarding differences in healings, it's not always that easy to determine if the contribution of healing was 'fair' or not and needs to be done on a case to case basis.

This is taken from one of my very own e1s parses (I'm the whm) and while one might say 'whm had to heal way too much!' I strongly disagree bc the sch and me both hit a very good rank on dps too. It really boils down to healing potencies and therefore it's hard to judge healer logs imo.


The sad thing is, a lot of ppl judge parsers/fflogs and players who use it without knowing what the tools can actualy do for you and how much information you can get out of them the game never offers you. Most players have no clue about their performance and if they don't care that's fair, but if there was an official tool available to improve your performance I believe a lot more ppl would bother using it. Even if it's just to take a casual attempt on bettering yourself I think it would have a huge impact.
