DPS Parser - ToS Violation?

[Ervin]

A third party parser program would be against the ToS.

And what need is there with a parser? People drew up nightmare stories and nightmare scenarios when I was still leveling, about how this, that and his grandma being "so hard unless you are geared". For instance AK, Garuda, Titan etc. I started doing them straight of the bat (except Titan) in the 50/55 class pieces, random collection of rings/necks/ears etc of different levels (28-40 some white non HQ and some pinks) and an ifrit weapon as a warrior tank. I've had no trouble whatsoever, AK has probably been the most simple dungeon there is so far (not counting zerg fest 8 man castrum and that other place where you can be half asleep most of the time).

The troubles I've had havent been healing, damage or tanking issues that a parser can show. It's been people issues, bad players that couldnt handle it even in the BiS gear. People that dps their brains out as healers, people that wont avoid AoE, people that cant follow simple connect-the-dot tactics. There arent enough option when it comes to gear or specs in this game to give a parser any real value. No optional traits or talent trees, just 30 attribute points and 5 optional skills (not many to pick from). Peoples reaction times are whats killing 8 man Titans, just like poor timed stuns or the lack there off kills Ifrit runs, but thats not something you need a parser to figure out.
