How would an optional, official parser be toxic?

I see, thank you for your reply. A bit off topic now, but does "Duty Complete" from duty finder not work when you are in a Party?

On topic: I'm not against using parser for yourself to help improve your performance, but as many others have pointed out, all the people who wishes to use parsers already use them, so what benefits do we gain by making an official one?

You can queue into Raid Finder with the Duty Complete options as far as I know, but NA does not use Raid Finder for current Savage/Extreme content. We use Party Finder for that. Duty Finder proper does not have a Duty Complete option at all, so you can’t use it for older content not in Raid Finder.

PS4 players want to parse and they don’t have any options for it short of getting their PC friends to parse for them. But they cannot see the parses in real-time; just after the fact if the PC player uploads them to FFLogs. So, no, the people who do want to parse do not all have the option to do so (short of buying a PC).
