SE's most difinitive statement yet on parsers

[Gormogon]

Seriously? When a scientist first steps out to make a hypothesis he wants the facts/data. Perhaps we should feel sorry for you.

level from 1-50 and learn nothing. You sure told me about scientist and facts.

I suspect the problem isn't parsers in general, but rather the people you played with.

You suspected wrong and I'm not gonna bother naming every little god damn thing that's happened in pugs where people use parsers but are misinformed because they weren't paying attention to the fight itself to realize what really went wrong.

And part of the process of checking and testing mechanics in Savage Coil is digging through parser output to understand what they need to be achieving to clear the content.

Sorry but when I was in WoW most world first "boss" clears are not based on using meters but communication between progression guilds during downtime unless they actually communicated between fights. "Pro-tip that is happening in the current end game scene of FFXIV."

Yet you don't have to take my word for it and can believe on the parser data. All it ever did in WoW just simply gather pointless dps information that can be gotten even without it's presence. People that record fights would even spot the, exact why, faster than those bothering with crunching a log.
