FFXIV parser/DPS meter

[Astyrah]

Just as soon as dps checks stop being part of the game.

this and boss/raid enrages are basically the reasons why we need an official damage meter. everything in savage raids and extreme trials revolve around meeting a dps check and/or skipping a phase (to make the rest of the run easier) and/or beating the hard enrage in time (again back to dps checks).

(some might disagree with me but) now, if they kept all of that but removed the enrages i would be ok if we never got an official one.

[...] if they kept all of that but removed the enrages i would be ok if we never got an official one.

And the issue with removing enrages and DPS checks is that healers are too powerful to do that - you could cheese pretty much every fight by stacking healers and just stalling when you run low on MP. DPS would become obsolete. Not a very healthy meta either.

exactly why enrages (they will never go away) will always be part of the high end content, and why we need a parser :P
