parse for ps4 users !

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

You mean just like how you decided not to address any other point in the same post you're quoting?

However, I fail to see how my opinions can lack credibility because I don't have a level 60 job/class yet.

Because many players have pointed out the advantages of a parser in fights where a DPS has more responsibility than a tank or healer, like BisEX and Faust in A1S, and you've never made it a point to address that.

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

That's completely fine, but at the same time you cannot use that to discredit every time someone makes a point about the boons of parsers in endgame content.

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.

I definitely agree with you on that, but it seems a little contradictory because you HAVE gotten defensive in previous posts whenever someone answers a post you've made opposing parser. Also, if players are having a discussion for parsers in endgame, and you reply with your reasons for not needing a parser for content that's not endgame, wouldn't that be a little off-topic. At the same time, I HAVE been in fights where slow DPS has caused wipes in where minimal or very little DPS checks are involved. Last week I helped out my friend in The Vault on the last boss. I was a WAR and she was a WHM. When the flames appeared, there would be 3 flames up before the "purge" attack, which led to her having to heal more. That's not really a big deal, but the fight would get so slow that her MP would run out (she knew when to use Shroud of Saints) because the DPS players were doing such a poor job. Yes, we could look at debuffs, buffs, DoT's, but at the same time, that's not really my job as a tank, you know? I shouldn't be looking out that the DPS players are performing as they should by constantly looking at buffs, dot's, and debuffs. If I do spot these things, and I know how to play the person's job, I can give out some helpful advice, but at the same time, if I don't have the slightest clue about how to play a job at lv 57-58 (like MCH, for example), I can't do much about that. Yes, in the past you've said that a bad player will be a bad player regardless of parser use or not, and I again completely agree with you on that, but there are also many players who think they're doing fine while they're not. Having numerical proof of low DPS values would reinforce someone's point when they say "Hey, we're not getting this fight done due to low DPS, and here are the numbers; let's work on fixing that".

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?

This can go both ways, you know. I haven't seen you argue many of my points and instead you've chosen to focus on how I'm attacking you.

Does this cover how you have responded to him before he went that route as well?

Someone takes the time to respond to your post, individually addressing your points and answering them...and you reply with 3 words? I do not wish in attempting to communicate with someone who refuses to provide a constructive argument and instead types 3 words, or views every response as a personal attack (after I agreed with you on certain points, too) while cherry picking responses and intentionally choosing not to address valid arguments made in the same post, or misinterpreting them, so I'll wish you a good day and end it here.
