    I just can't take it anymore. A parser is not necessary to improve upon your rotation.
    This is not WoW where you need to know how much uhh what did they call it? DKP or some crap?
    Slowly as more people have come from other MMO's such as WoW to FFXIV this toxic mentality (that did not exist before) that parsers are necessary seems to continue to be the main point on conversation in the forums.

    If you don't know that you are bad, you CAN'T get better.
    And most DPS, even the "no-WM" Bards, "ice" mages, "no-botd" DRGs, etc. think they are doing good! And they can EASILY get away with it. They can just hit 1-2-3, perform under 50% of their job capabilities, and get carried through almost anything. So they think they are Hydaelyn's gift to the game, and anything anyone says that contradicts this is a troll, hater, or elitist.

    Until they can see ACTUAL proof that they are WAY under others will they (maybe) look into improving...

    Few things wrong with your statement, everything in this world in real life and the game funny enough can only be improved upon by a metric to go by, take sprinters, yes they can run fast but its also important to know what number to do better then, from that number they figure out how to improve it such as fitness training or diet.

    To improve, the whole word requires a metric to compare against, thats how that word is defined, if you do not have a metric to go by, how can you say you improved, you need evidence of this, science lives off of this notion.

    Also most of this playerbase is from FF11 and not WoW so don't blame WoW players, this is FF players as its finest and WoW has nothing to do with this and the asinine behaviour from the I do what I want crowd has always been here.
