Absolute frustration at not being able to see my own DPS (ps4)

[PArcher]

I'll just be honest; when leveling, its not really the best idea to practice a specific rotation for hours on end, since you'll just gain new skills that will change it (fairly quickly with the xp buffs too). And really, any leveling dungeon that is cleared in a reasonable amount of time is fine.

I do recommend practicing a lv50 rotation when you get there, just because lv50 content does pop up with some frequency. Plenty of guides with great rotations out there to get a good start. But even then, unless you plan on doing some serious lv50 work, don't worry too much over it anymore; wait til you get to 60, and your final rotation, for that (or, as final as your gear lets you. Certain jobs' rotations can change depending on how much SS you have, or even if your SCH is using Eos or Selene...so be aware)


That being said, if you are this bothered by not seeing your own DPS at all times...you should just bite the bullet and get a PC. I know if I had a parser, I wouldn't have it on except in content that has real DPS checks or in practice; most randoms tend to be very very bad (example, did a Void Ark run today with a friend who intended to give himself all his Arrows and Balances to be top healer DPS. Turns out, I was top DPS for every encounter except third boss [I died when my heals didn't realize I was tanking]. Now why is this a problem? I was a WAR...even with him feeding me all sorts of amazing cards, that should not have happened)
