    short version :
    Yes wow fight are harder now than before, even with some addon. and the "rotation addon" are used by the people with bad gameplay unable to adapt to eachfight. Also, FF get his own "helping" bots on vocal to do calls during the fight, and before boss mods did exist, there was the raidlead doing the calls...
    Parser wont create dumbass people, just make them appear. But there is rule on the game, and most of them will discover what ban is (or rediscover...). Because the "real good" players dont care about parsers before Xtrem primals.
    WoW comunity and FF are similar, and more, most of online game get the same kind of toxicity (elohell myth is in my mind toxic people unable to get to gold and prefer to complain about "the others")
    Parser can also shows who is really bad, EVEN if the parsers shows he is the best DPS (not enough interrupt, to much damage taken, all damages on boss, etc etc etc)
    Not wanting parser because it will make appear toxic guys is not a solution to get rid of them, they are a far more large matter. and will always find a way to being toxic.



    Long version with more details and personnal thought :

    For the comunity. YES some are dumb, but again, they dont wait parsers to be dumb. AGAIN the abusiv kicking in leveling dongeon (didnt saw any and did lvl from zero 4 classes from the end of WoD to now) are due to dupmb people, those kind of guys who will find an excuse to insult and being dumbass. you cant do anything and protect yourself from them... And giving them or no the tools are not the matter.

    For the addons there is rotations? yes the people using it are fast spot because they cant adapt to fights. If you speak about WA, most people uses it to display much more informations.
    Bossmods? FF have them, when you go on some teams' vocal you find a bot that does the work... So yes, blizzrad with the easy way of addon have it. And it is really usefull for casual players to do the "normal" raid, or even LFR (... god i hate LFR XD )
    But again, I DONT SPEAK ABOUT PEOPLE DOING LOW CONTENT. normal raid, LFR, is like raid 24 or raid8 story mode on FF. who cares about how good you are in such content? There is, in LFR like in raid24 always some AFK people (and in both side they are kick when spot... parsers help to spot them :-° )

    And lets return to iskar. he gets much more mechanics and things to do than C'thun, the eye is only one. and getting some vocal call from raid leader or from a bot/addon is the same thing.

    Top world of FF and WoW get the same tools to try, on FF they have bots, (or even ACT does this) and on WoW they have weak aura, they have to set to get needed informations.


    Yes, WoW and FFXIV get a quite similar comunity... Most of thing i saw on wow, i did find it on FF, and most thing i did see on FF during ARR/HW... i did then find it when back on wow.
    And, i continue to do all (except top end) content in WoW, when i go on LFR, we wait 3 or 4 wipe before thinking to kick deadweight, those which DPS are not just "bad" no... those when their DPS is so low that we think they did afk during part of the tries. And also those that cant do mechanics at all... And continue with sometime people that dont even have the level to one shot LFR (and LFR is really REALLY easy)

    You speak about the difficulty of leveling content, with the change to the leveling, bosses are not instant kill, so low level dongeons again take a little time to be done. for "heroic dongeons" as it began on WOTLK they are easy, as expert dongeon in FF are. But there is mythic and M+ content (where there is really some competition there). BUT some people run away from those, like they run away from normal raid. doing only DF content (heroic dongeon at best, and LFR)
    And... in such kind of content, we dont care about parsing, as said, on LFR, it is when we get 4 wipe and far from killing the boss (4thwipe => 20-25% left... sorry but there is a matter in an more than easy content)

    For you wow is proof of all bad things of parser ? Dont need wow for this, FFXIV already show some dumbass. as said, they dont need parser to be. I was more kicked in dongeon during 3 years in FF than in 6 years on WoW with DF (FF, at least 11 time... on wow not even sure i can reach 5 kick...) i was kicked one time on FF just because i did ask the tank to slow down a little, to allow me regen some PM as healer... I didnt rage about "bad comunity" it was a duo of silly brainless dude wanting to do the dongeon in 21minutes and not 21minutes30seconds. (maybe on wow this could exist, but a votekick need 3 people, FF only 2, this helps A LOT about abusiv kick... would be good that on FF need the three people click "yes" to kick on 4-man)

    And yes, on wow i had some argue with guys thinking they were god among us. But... i already did see it on FFXIV... while seeing BLM going to ice mode with "ice" (not IceIII, the first spells !) and saying me to "shutting my fucking mouth" because i only was scholar, and had nothing to learn to play BLM from me.

    You say you are anti-idiot? I trust you, sincerely. as said i was on the end of the wow beta. i did see a lot of dumb thing. i HATE the "gearscore" addon, full of shit (and fast died) i laugh to some people not even able to do decently their job with the "eye of anzu" addon and whining they cant finish the raid in heroic mode. But you know what? they have to be kicked from the raid. Because even them, thinking they are good enough for the content was deadweight.
    you did speak about people doing damages on the wrong target and wasting people time. and... parsers shows it without any way to deny the fact ! (when a guy get 95% damage on boss where he should be at 70% or less on boss... and yes... if he does it another try after it is said to him, he can be first damages of the raid, he will have to say good bye! )

    Look back the content the "pro parsers" are speaking. Xtrem primals to do farms (not even simple "kills") and savage. Could speak, on wow side on heroic raid content (and mythic so) or M+ dongeons. but, kicking, and requesting people to master their job in such content is not even "a minimum" it should be a basis rule. You dont master your job? just forget savage. Then the parsers will only shows the guy doesnt master his job. and so... the lesser thing we can ask to do savage content is not there... so yes, kick.

    It is coddling to consider we have to take in any party, never kicking people that dont fit a content. Yes.
    For this now, on WoW, i dont go mythic raid even if i love raiding. My play time, and my focus on the game make me not fitting this content past the 2-3 first bosses of the raid. When you do to such content, you have to admit people will judge you. And it wont be always "hum ok, not so bad continue"
    And parsers is just one way to get numerous proof... and the deadweight finish kicked, as some many toxic people, thinking they are over the crowd, but the parsers show even if they are good in doing damages they are bad in any other way...



    To end (fianlly you think... sorry)
    I understand the fear about stupid people getting this tool, but honestly, in 15 years, in different MMORPG, from EQ to FFXIV, AION, WoW, Tera, BDO, ragnarok online a little, some long activ time on LoL, OW (and other i did play less) Toxic people managed to be toxic. with or without parser or any tool. Just see the "elohell" shit... "if i am stuck in bronze/silver, it is not i am bad, it is i have always shitty people with me"
    Toxic people just want to never admit they are a matter, they are bad, or anything of this kind, they consider they are over the crowd. But sometime, tools allowing them to be some ass are also a good way to get rid of them... it shows where they are bad, (even if, while watching it, they will find 2397643 reasons). And more. in my mind, a toxic guy that shows being toxic with parser is just an unveiled toxic. and maybe finally it is the time to get rid of him.

    YES if parser get officially in the game, at first we will see a wave of such kind of people, and we will see it fast, far before the "good" things parsers will be seen. But i trust in the Game Master team to deal with them (because some "lol shitty noob, L2P, or delete account" is for me a temporary ban, and after 4-5 time, permaban.) It will just make them appear, but will NOT create them !




    For the toxicity : there is some things, now in the game, where parser wont change anything to the matter, that already creates toxicity (not create the people as said it just shows them) like "mentor" system.
    i dont say devs let the toxicity exist and smile, clearly not, but even idea that seems 100% good can make them "live"... and with or without parser there is work to do about it

    Do it. I actually am 100% okay with this.

    Because there are players that already can't do regular combo lines in Stormblood content. They desperately need it since we can't tell them what's wrong because that's toxic.

    Mostly because even with an official parser, the majority will refuse to utilize it because "who cares if I'm doing half what the tank does, I play this game for fun" and "dodging mechanics is more important <dies to mechanic>".

    I'm just going to give up on this thread. No one wants to face the fact that parsers are tools that can fuel multiple things, including toxicity, because they're being wilfully narrow minded and only thinking of how it can benefit themselves. I hope SE don't catch on to the "there will always be jerks" justification that allows people to shrug dismissively at the bad side effects of something, because then the game would be headed down a dark path.

    Fortunately for me I won't have to deal with much or any parser toxicity if the game gets an official parser because I raid with people I know and it's rare when we pug, and if we do we hold a great majority in the group. Judging from many of the comments here I should also have the attitude of "but I'd use it properly so let me have it" given I can easily avoid seeing the bad side of it.

    But clearly looking at the big picture is discouraged so...yea. I'm done. Have fun with this endless argument which has turned into little other than an echo chamber. I look forward to the many clones of this thread in the future. Probably some by Kaiva again as he seems to enjoy bringing up divisive issues.

    So by your logic, would you also support eliminating chat from the game? I mean, there's people shrugging dismissively at the bad side effects of it. And you can replace chat with any other feature of the game (PF, Roulettes, Cutscenes in MSQ Roulette, etc)

    I can assure that if people took that stance ("but it might cause problems by a fraction of the population") regarding anything, we'd still be back in the Stone Age in regards to development.

    These threads always are, both sides justify there own biases and just shout at each other and these threads do seem to be getting more and more hostile though (both sides and I'm not innocent on this one) which I don't think is good.

    Considering the cesspool that has become the thread everyone can concur that is a very polarizing issue, so its very unlikely(if not impossible) that FF14 gets an official parser ever. Those who want to parse themselves just keep using the unofficial parser, since SE wont do anything against you unless you start boasting about it (which is not the objective of the parser right? its for "improving" not "e-pening" unless you wanna use a parser on a toxic manner) so people can just use for themselves, on their static or as a complement to theorycrafting.

    Parsers are tools that could fuel toxic behavior....but literally anything can fuel toxic behavior. A person having better gear than others can fuel toxic behavior, a person having a minion that someone else doesn't have can lead to toxic behavior, a person who buys stuff from the Mogstation can lead towards toxic behavior from others about it.

    Toxic behavior exists outside of the MMO world as well and you simply can't just plug your ears and and shut it off either. People need to learn to stop fearing it and just brush it off sometimes at the end of the day as well. What a few jerks do to your time inside of the game should never spoil it completely.

    I agree. except for the limitations of PS4 users, anyone who wants to use a parser or would get value from it, is already using one.

    It is with the way you think that there is no more chat in feast... to get off a tool that helped toxic people to be toxic...

    in ALL game i played (MMORPG, MOBA, FPS mainly) there were always the same kind of toxicity, adapted to the game, and when toxicity was away, it was because game did throw it away simply.
    I remember when we had finally the readycheck in FF... people did have fun spamming this in raid24... was sooo wonderfull.

    Tools dont create artisan. But artisans uses tools.
    Chat, readycheck, parser, they are only the way those people uses to get toxic.

    Maybe i have a really dark view of Human, yes...

    Or everyone looses in fact.
    I am pro parser, but i would prefer SE to work on blocking any parser than the today situation.

    Official parser = loose for the "anti" and PS4 players get their own. pro parsers on PS4 are happy >9000 and other smiles

    But, in the current state, PS4 players doesnt have parser, and the "anti parser" get a situation where their FFlogs stats will make them allow or not to go in parties to some content (more it continue, harder it will be to find a party that dont check FFlogs). This is a way of toxicity for some part of them. (it seems a great part)



    Without the PS4 matter, i wouldnt speak about official parser. As said by blackmage, if you go on end game content, you can easily discover where to get parser, ACT mainly, they are good...
