    Something could be implemented in such a way that the game client gives players feedback based on what performance would be expected of them in their role in order to beat an enrage etc. I'm thinking healing/damage/threat meters which shows each player clearly whether what they personally did was up to standard based on time spent. Sure it's not effective for a raid leader, but it also ensures that otherwise innocent players are not punished more than they are already by toxic elements of the community. Player imposed PF rules that are higher than the game's requirements are bad enough. We don't need dps snobbery to add to this further.

    It's incredibly stupid that there are DPS checks in the game, yet we're not allowed to know which DPS is failing to do their job over and over.

    If a DPS meter is added, then this is no better than WOW? Lol. Really?
    You do know DPS meters were introduced to WOW due to the game's endgame mechanics? Which in FFXIV, funny enough, are all copy & paste from WOW?
    And then people wonder why a DPS meter or similar tools would be so benifical to this game and it's playerbase.

    The only harm these tool would bring, would be to those with paper thin skin.
    It would benefit everyone else.

    I would also agree, as i remember doing my first Haukke HM and a drg in i90 had a parser and said Bard was the only dps to do more then him and then showed numbers (i was only in ilv 60 i think then)
    He was not rude about it but i can very well see a tool being a bad thing if used moreso to discriminate
