DPS

I seem to recall parsers being endorsed by a community rep. Since parsers simply read the log in the game without actually interfering with the game code itself I'm fairly certain they are acceptable. Besides we're confirmed to be getting add-on support eventually in ARR, so kinda hard to ban parsers.

They are the only passable way of measuring DPS performance, and are incredibly accurate.

Are there any parsers for ps3/ps4 users lol?
I assume 99% nope and never will be. XD

Parses are not ToS by Sony or SE anyway.

Just because they are looking the other way doesn't make likely. If this continues it may even be banned on the forums to talk about parser club.

Irrelevant. One can say that PC version will have an advantage with add-ons as well.

Yoshi P made a point to distinguish parsers from actual hacks and bots, suggesting they are immediately bannable. For parsers he stated he doesn't want players to mention them in game as it can be used to grief others. That's about it. They are, after all, impossible to detect.

I mean are console users able to use parsers on the console or is it just a pc exclusive program?
Cuz i as a ps3 user always wondered what ppl meant when i hear them discuss dps on the chatlog.

As I said in my post, the people who are getting banned are the people who are posting the results. The parser is a 3rd party program against TOS, but since it doesn't have to run before the game is loaded, the game doesn't pick it up in it's check. So then the only way to know you are using a parser is to talk about it or post the results in-game, but by doing that SE considers that harassement on the people who are lacking dps, and harassement is also bannable.

And while they state they will allow add-ons in the future, I still would like to see that happen.
