Please answer our question. Why are tanks and healers held accountable for failure to do their jobs but DPS aren't if a DPS race is the cause of a wipe?

You are all responsible for what you do, there is no favorites in a group, either it works or it don't a parser does not tell you the skill level.

Its like in FFXI a person could buy a account with the best gear max stats, it does not make him the best player.

A person with low DPS could be better than you even if you played right even if you dodged right and he did the same doesn't mean the next boss fight you won't fumble up you put your faith in a tool instead of your own experience, you're not a gamer then if you let the game play you. If you have to use a program to get the job done that's pretty sad.

If I fail that just makes me a better player because I can accept it, then try again until its correct, I don't need a program to show me that like you all do.

A parser can tell you HOW MUCH DPS EACH PERSON IS DOING. A parser does not play the game for you. It's a TOOL THAT MERELY COLLECTS THE DATA PRESENTED IN THE BATTLE LOG. A parser can show you who's not pulling their weight DPS wise and if DPS checks aren't being met, then you know WHY. If you are constantly wiping in a fight at the same point due to a DPS check, then SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. I'm not sure how clearer this can be conveyed to you.

No one is picking on you, so you can drop the victim complex. We're trying to show you just how grossly misinformed you are. It's clear to see that you do not know what you are talking about. By the way, you didn't answer the question.

How do you know how much DPS you're doing, then? How do you think that the people who came up with the best rotations arrived at their conclusions?

Failing a DPS race consistently has nothing to do with dodging or any of what you're talking about. Failing a DPS race consistently and thinking you'll get it next time by not changing anything is best compared to repeatedly smashing your head against a 6-inch-thick cement wall and thinking you're going to break through.
