Can SQ-EN draw a line in the sand w/ 3rd Parties?

The thing is, other WoW streamers seem to have done their homework before jumping into FF14 raiding (at least the ones I've seen) and they didn't go in it with their WoW mentality and relying on programs. Now a real question: Do WoW raiders use programs for their first clears too, when the raid is till new?

I haven't raided in wow in over a decade but I would be surprised if people are not using DBM for progression, which isn't a program - it's a addon.

I see. I personally think that using a program (especially for progression) takes away so much from the experience, and while to each their own, I really hope this doesn't become the norm in FF14 raiding.

I don't think it will. I wouldn't be worried. Those who use it fair play. It doesn't take anything away or make them cheaters imo. Those who don't use it, also fair. You do you.
