The Real Problem with Parsers

[Waliel]

parsers DONT really matter that much. often times, you can look at people's hate gauges and get somewhat of an idea of what people are doing damage-wise

The problem with that is it's all relative to the highest threat, so you don't know how many, if any, are above the treshold needed when you hit the enrage. Then there's also Summoners and their pets, Dragoons halving their threat possibly, how adds and some mechanics are handled, etc. It really only kinda maybe works in long dummy fights.
