    2. Usually accounted for. If a fight is so drastically bad that a melee DPS can't achieve top DPS then it's either A. Melee DPS needs to be tuned up or B. The fight is bad for melee and you won't be taking very many(if any at all) for that particular fight

    3. This question actually supports the use of a parser, seeing where a burst based DPS should be for burst required parts of a fight.(Conflags) or where a DPS isn't utilizing his cooldowns for a specific part(again Conflags). If the conflags go out with no problem, then there isn't a problem, if you're not making it through, the use of the parser allows you to see who needs to improve so your team can progress.

    4. Usually accounted for. If people blindly go about the numbers then they're dumb, plain and simple. Can't blame a parser for this. e.g. can't blame the Bard for being lower than everyone when they were playing ballad/paeon

    5. Irrelevant. Your DPS is what your DPS is regardless if you zoned out for 3 seconds before unloading on a boss or not.
    1. The entire game is not like Titan. And most people are unwilling to pay extra money just to have a better internet connection. I have 1 choice of internet out here in the country that does not have bandwidth limits. I won't pay about twice the money for possibly better internet and have my cap at 1 GB or less, and have to pay extra out the nose if I go over, or worse yet, they slow my internet down to a crawl like some do, which defeats the purpose of trying for a better internet provider. And I also won't pay for any VPN or other such connection, on top of my internet, on top of my monthly sub, when any lag I get in game, only happens in this one game and no other.

    2. Or they are learning the fight, or they are not geared as well as everyone else.

    3. So your team can progress? Good point for a parser. I agree. Unfortunately it will also be used to look down on random DF people. And with a lot of random DF people, after a wipe the rage quits start, which voids some of the "so your team can continue", unless you have a static, and hopefully your static won't be d-bags to each other.

    4. People do blindly go with the numbers. Let's face it. People are idiots. Unfortunately the e-peen strokers will be a far greater number than the genuine "parser helper" people.

    5. Get a DF for Titan or something. You were out in the wild spiritbonding crap gear. Everyone skips the movie, and before you can put in your real gear or the healers buff the tank pulls. It happens. And then someone will rage on you that you did low DPS and are wearing crap gear.
