    I will just ask the people who mention SSS. Okay you have that website and yes, I've been aware of it, because I've seen it. Now you know somewhat your dps numbers on a dummy
    I know that the dummy require more DPS than the actual fight. So I see ChakoTako want's to improve which is great. They start to calcuate and use the website and see if they improve or not.

    Now, I will ask; They enter they fight and let's say on a dummy they done 1.8k. So it means you somewhat want to be around 1.4k-1.5k in the actual fight. Now let's say you do your mechanics and you do the rotation as you wanted to do, but hold on, now you need to move because of aoe's then might need to move because of earthshaker. What happens? Yes less dps, now I'm not saying your dps gonna be flat out bad because you had to do a few mechanics. You kill the fight, and you think hey I did great. You have some one telling you the numbers because you are curious and all happy. It's 950. 950... Okay. Is that great? Is that acceptable
    Now if that's acceptable, put 3 more dps and tanks doing less than 700 in the same fight calculating that healers doesn't need to dps, because first of all seph isn't that hardcore dps check fight so healers shouldn't have to anyways. So lets say 950 x4 = 3800. Add tank DPS 700x2 = 1.400. 3800+1400 = 5200. Now. I will ask you do you think you could kill seph with that dps? I wont give you the answer I will see if you know.

    Problem is, there is so much more knowing if you improved on a dummy. I improve many times on a dummy doesn't mean I improve in the actual fight.
    You know whats also selfish and super toxic? Having 3 decent/good dps pulling off their weight so 1 guy can just sit there and half ass do it, which happens way too many times.
    Yesterday helped this group with a clear, his friend needed it and this MNK needed it but nobody knew him. We kill it and and hes 700 less but including death so 350 ish less than he should been.Wanna know why we won? Because EVERYONE pulled their weight off. If people played excactly like this mnk without being dead it wouldn't been dead at all. And you know what that is to me? Toxic and super selfish. Wanna know what's even worse? Guy rolls need on weapon when some one else needs it, and the MNK already had the 230 weapon. Selfish and toxic. So before anyone says parsers will turn people into an asshole, please be aware there are people like that and those are the ones I kindly want to avoid, but sadly me telling them they did horrible would just leave them a 5 sec click away from calling a GM saying I'm such a horrible person. While you were wasting peoples time quite few time being dead on the floor or not doing enough as you should been. Toxic I tell ya.

    So the question is, once again. How can you know you improved in a actual fight. Do you go by the good old '' I think I did great'' feeling. Or just hope you did well?

    In the GIF thread that's supposed to be fun and make you laugh someone complained about a healer DPSing and letting them drop down to 50 HP and everyone tore their head off defending the healer.
    Id like to see that quote somewhere, people letting healers drop down to 50 hp and then defend the healer.

    edit 2: Sorry Cnidarian for edting few times.
