What you want is an actual analysis of your performance not a DPS meter.
    It's better than not having any info (console players)

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Not really, even if you do find out your DPS is low, you will still need to use other tools to find out why and how to improve. You are still having to go outside the game to actually do anything about it.
