    That was a really long way to say "no, I have no experience of any current (or near past) endgame content in this game" (you have no recorded Omega or Alexander Savage kills nor extremes from HW or SB). And this quote really shows it, as in the content where parsers are used and needed in this game, enmity reducing abilities are an absolute must-use for all DDs, RDMs and SMNs are regularly asked to raise (in progression at least), and DDs are also using their damage reduction abilities etc.

    How parsers are or aren't used in other games is not relevant to this discussion, as those games work differently (in FFXI for example you didn't really need them, since in most fights - unless it was RDM chainspell stun burn strategy - you could just endlessly die and raise and kill bosses really slowly before they added enrage timers, and by that point parsers were already commonly used...), have different communities and different endgame structures (meaning you join content in a different manner, the requirements are different etc.).
