Ah, once again, people belittling others rather than addressing points made.

This isn't an alt, I don't have any class/job at 60, and I've already stated why that is the case, I don't feel the need to do so again. What you are saying though is really wrong. You don't need a lvl 60 class/job to know about endgame content, or how you can develop a decent skill rotation. It seems many have forgotten that the ARR level cap was 50, and i have 5 classes/jobs at 50. I don't like end-game content in this game, I dislike the stress it induces on tanks and healers. However, I fail to see how my opinions can lack credibility because I don't have a level 60 job/class yet. The day before HW lanched you and I would both have had lvl 50 characters, would my opinion bear any less weight then? No, it wouldn't, so why should it now. You make it sound like something special happens between 50 and 60 that makes someone's opinion about parser use somehow more relevant than another. What a load of rubbish. If knowing how to learn your skills or develope a good rotation is now dependent on being level 60, how did anyone do it?

I've repeated stated I'm not talking about end-game content in any case, so whether I have done any end-game content in this game is irrelevant, of course this isn't my first mmorpg or rpg, and I dare say I've played RPGs in one form or another longer than many forum posters have been alive. Be that as it may, in this discussion and others before it, people have claimed over and over that parsers are necessary to overcome dps check in non-end-game content. I have stated quite a large number of times that I can see a role for such a tool when trying to overcome a specific dps check in end-game content. So I'm really not sure why you wish to harp on about my completion of any end game content, that would be highly relevsnt if I was commenting on end-game specifics, but since I'm not...

Still, thank you so much for switching to ad hominem mode, I do so love character assasination by Lodestone. I always wonder why it is that people switch to attacking me, perhaps it's because they can't argue my points, and so attempting to discredit me is an easier option?
