getting kicked from end game pfs as soon as I join?

Logs are not much useful today, because poisoned by all the BiS groups running multiple log runs at o9s and making a normal, legit performance of someone at i370 appear like garbage.
Log runs and clears are two different things.

That's quite an exaggeration tbf. Just because some groups do logruns (which is perfectly fine idk why you make it sound like a bad thing?), the percantages of rankings are not screwed. Slightly impacted? Maybe, but it's not "poisoned". lol
Also what do you mean with "normal" and "legit" performance? Just because some players have more skill they are not legit anymore? How so?

- You can't compare yourself by item level ranges and this is super important. Here the best you can do is to pick someone and check his/her first clears and guess.

Gear has less impact than people assume. It can make a difference, yes, but not to the amount a lot of people actually believe. You can still pull out top tier dps with inferior ilvl / stats.


I'm not sure what you mean with DPS sims tho. I never played WoW. Is that some sort of "this is how your rotation should look like" or "this is how you should perform"?

[AmeliaVerves]

The idea behind a sim is to show your supposed max DPS for your current gear under a perfect rotation. It's accurate enough to give you a good idea of what DPS you should be doing.

Oh, this is handy.
I mean everyone who is interested can just check fflogs and see what numbers the top players of each job are pulling and then compare that to their own numbers. Obv considering gear, but it's good enough to get a general idea of where you're standing.

How do you simulate RNG-based things like crits/dhs/procs? Some classes dont have a fixed rotation.

Setting up the whole thing is easier in WoW (and you can't be ban) compared to FFXIV. This translate to fewer players uploading logs.

? You're gonna have to explain this logic to me, particularly the underlined section.
