Built-in Parsers

[Mepplin]

For reasons like this I'd support a personal in-game parser. It doesn't have show other people's dps, only your own. There's really no other way to get better in this game then by comparing damage. Half the "hardcore" raiding community would be shite without 3rd party plugins calling out mechanics for them, without being able to see their damage numbers compared to everyone else, without fflogs breaking down every single aspect of the fight for them. So let PS4 players be able to see their own damage, it's not asking a lot.

Wait... What?! There are third party programs which tell you about upcoming mechanics? o.o
Probably explains a lot! (Like simultanous mechanics happening more and more. Way easier to do your job if you dont need to think about mechanics...)

I guess getting a better grasp on ones own dps is the most significant point.
Why not force everyone to be successful at that certain dummy before joining via tool? Or better: add some option for PF to filter people who have not archieved a dummy-down at that fight.
The last idea would be to give a better idea of how good/bad one is. Just like grades. S for the best, A for good, B for medium. (or something else. Just copied it from hunts)
And have people not being able to eat stuff or use buffing potions. Because that feels to me like cheating. (If one isnt able to beat that dummy unbuffed but barely makes it buffed.) One should be able to beat dummies without food/pots.

Actually that is already happening since those hard dps-checks started. (Heavensward?)
Or what do you think of people wanting to force their tanks and healers to minimize their maintasks in favor of damage? I think it's exactly the same thing. And this is something I'm completely against at. I really prefer that "oldschool" role-system over dps>all. But less and less people seem to care about that.
Nice for people who calculate all of this and show the difference between two parties - one playing more safe, the other "a bit" more reckless. With that more reckless party being faster 2 mins resulting in that being a "pro dps>all"-point.
But one thing is being forgotten. Not everyone is able to hit those 95%+ parses. There are even parties whose members tend to do more mistakes than others; resulting in slower progression. And that should be fine. You cant just throw people out of some content just because of... wait. What exactly? I cant think about a reason for that...

I've seen threads where raiders (or players who are full of themselfes for whatever else reason?) told about their kicks of very bad people who dont care about gear. (ever been new to mmos? did you grasp everything from the first 1-2 months? me not. I started thinking about stats way after I had my first raiding experiences.) Sometimes they even told about having seen their very bad gear (ok - some mid hw-weapon with 63 is REALLY old; but one could be friendly or tell a joke about it instead of insulting them) and how they then started to pull more to force the healer out. Without being the tank. Think about that. DPS pulling another two sets of enemies just to have the healer leave or convincing the tank to kick that healer... And yes. This has been told to have happened in eighter leveling dungeons and daily queues. Far away from any extreme or raidcontent. But the worst point? Those people seemed to be proud about it.
Well I can understand their frustration at some points. I'm not very happy with 80 minute daily queues as well. Or if people are really underperforming (like doing 1/3 of the "usual") or not even trying to understand mechanics which causes them to die. But I dont see it as a reason to insult/harass those people. Why not ask friendly if those knew about their fault(s)? Or if one isnt in the mood to talk to them, why not stay quiet?

I'm sorry. But this game (or its community) is already at that point.
There shouldnt be any further thread coming from built in parsers. Yes the toxic behaviour will (probably) increase. But at least people would get a tool to try and get better on their own.
I dont think they would be needed on every content. Dummies should have them. Maybe even as a PF-Option if that will be shown or not. Making it PF only.

Those common "bigpulls" (door to door) are part of it as well. Some people get nervous easily if they arent sure about their tanking capability and then get dps or healers which eighter seem to want one to go faster or who actually go and pull stuff. The same from the healer. It's not nice to do bigpulls with every healers. There could be some who are new to this. Though I've seen tanks asking their healer if its okay to do bigpulls. Or the healer telling the tank that more is okay if he wants to.
