Would you like an in-game parser?

Or is it the fact you want to protect those who are so bad, you don't want them to be ''offended''?

See my reason above.
The more we focus on damage numbers, the more DPS checks we'll have, so we'll focus moreon damage, for more DPS checks, etc...

In 10 years of FFXI, I've never been bothered by not having a relic, or a full Salvage or Empyrean+2 set as a WHM, because I didn't let people die. Were my heals the strongest ? Probably not. Was my damage good ? Hmm...no, but WHM damage was crap whatever gear you have. Was I mocked because I put my merit points in Barrier spells ? No. No one cared, because I still did my job. But it was my build, my choices, and the WHM I liked.
Compared to that, this game is bland, it is hollow. And this obssesion plays a big role in it.

And worse...even 1.23 was more interesting when it came to build. Choosing classes over jobs was a tactical choice sometimes, as was choosing gear...but yeah, I'm just lazy, I'm just fishy...and I'm just starting to be bored by this game.

Alright. Intramural sports team and the stats a friend keeps.

So, if I'm the goalkeeper in a soccer team and we win every watch, you'll bitch about how I didn't stop every ball ? Or how many miles I traveled during the whole match ?
The more metaphor you'll make, the less "it's only for helping" you'll sound...
