If that means staying in Wanders Palace normal because you refuse to get better, then so be it. The only people offended by this comment are the ones holding the game back because of said ignorance.
    "If you want to be bad"... well, there's the first problem with your argument. You're assuming people want to be bad.

    There's a big difference between 'optimal' DPS and enough DPS. If you can beat content with standard DPS, then no one has a right to criticize what you're doing. They're doing their job just fine and the content will be completed. People hate on parsers BECAUSE of reasons like this. People expect you to not just be good but literally the best. It becomes a contest, and eventually someone gets chosen over someone else because 'their DPS was higher'. I've seen it dozens of times and it gets old quick, so having an in-game parser only exaggerates these problems further.

    Your attitude of just wanting to barely pass the bar is truly lamentable.
