With that out of the way, data is data. It's useful to know how the group is doing. Skilled players can throw out good damage while doing mechanics. It's nice to know, but it isn't completely necessary. Plus it's not that hard to say, "Sorry if my damage output was bad, [mechanic] is making it quite troublesome."

So i ask you whom shuns the use, what are you going to do if your group does not meet the damage check?
Ask I have stated, it was a rant. Although I was replying to you, it isn't necessarily targeted at you. Again, as I said, I just had to get it off my chest.

As for what happens if the group doesn't meet the damage check? Everyone go and try to improve as much as they can. Over time, gear will nerf the difficulty of the encounter anyway.
