Is a Parser ever comming?

[Raenryong]

Parsers are not used to self-improvement.

Yes they are.

They're used to alienate others.

Only incompatible people.

And they do not take into account dodging, killing adds, DoTs, pets, etc.

Yes they do.

To elaborate briefly; you can sort by number of deaths and by damage taken. You can see damage on individual adds and separate by participant. DoTs and pets are included.

People with area effect skills can also pad their numbers by spamming.

And you can account for this.

And you can account for this.

Yeah. The healers will love those players anyway. Gotta pad their heals parses.

I'm sure you're incredibly "skilled," what with needing third party programs to help you play a game that tells you exactly where to go and what to do, but there's really no need for most players to bother with parsers or anything else.

Maybe you should get a job above 27 and hit some fights with real DPS checks before you understate how useful they are. "There's really no need for most players to bother with parsers" doesn't explain why so many DPS utterly fail at both damage and survival.

As I said before, T4 Dreadnaughts before echo required 200-220 from all DPS to clear successfully. If I go in there as DRG, I won't be able to pull that DPS because of my inexperience with the job. If I'm pulling 160 DPS and the Dread keeps eating the Phase 3 spiders, I'm the problem and a parser will tell me that I'm the problem for not being at the required threshhold.

I notice you don't yet have a level 50. Keep up with that mentality and entry level dungeons at 50 will not be kind to you, Especially Binding Coil (The first 5 turns), which is still difficult to do, even with the echo buff, if people aren't pulling their own weight
