    DPS display could easily be solved with a system already in game.



    In the forbidden land known as PVP.

    Add this after a wipe/clear of an encounter. It doesn't give exact numbers per second, but you can definitely see who needs to step up their game if you can compare two side by side.

    mnk, your dps was lowest on that last try

    mnk, "yea, I was marked 4 times in a row, went almost 30 seconds without GL stacks"

    "sorry, but we gotta kick you"

    mnk, "..."

    Even with mechanics, there's no reason to be the lowest DPS short of poor gear or deaths on MNK. That being said anyone that would kick for low DPS is probably already parsing and knows how you rank according to everyone.

    Are we talking DF groups here? Would kicking people for low dps even be allowed in DF groups?

    Would kicking people for bad tanking or healing be allowable in DF groups? Why the double standard?

    That question was purely rhetorical, thank you very much. No need to be edgy with an accusation of a double standard. By the way, I don't even see anybody bringing that up in this thread.

    Nope that would mean they'd be violating the rules of Vote Dismiss. If you were to be spontaneously kicked by a group of 3 who never spoke a word you could file a report and get those 3 players banned(idk how long) GMs can check everything from chat log to player positions, HP, and damage done to them at given times.
    Party Finders on the other hand are a more little touchy and someone can't just roll up in your PF and expect to be given a chance by every leader, that leader might have heard about you and kick you if wants. PF rules are mostly made by the leader, if Party Finder entry comment says Slaying ring is locked for him and you take it; he can file a report and you can get banned( like personally by a GM). This is why lootmaster is coming. Moreover, if he explicitly says the reason why he kicked you is low dps parsing then he can get banned. Mostly harassment SE doesn't want to see.

    Cuz there's no way anyone can be the lowest. All DPS numbers must read the exact same.

    Jesus Christ in a side car, I love you for this. You know how many time's I've heard elitist pricks threaten or kick the lowest DPS of the 4-6 of DPS in a group!? Too @#$@ing many!

    I'm glad someone here also knows we all can't be Player 1 or place 1st with all the others. Someone has to be in second place, third place, etc. There is hope in this world yet...

    What we really need is a Effort Meter, that calculates your classes handicaps(Cause bards got just about none! Run and Gun baby!), includes your say maximum potential dmg from your stats vs the target, and then how close you are to actually achieving said potential on the target. Bam, Effort Meter. Shows who is giving a sh!t and not.
