Commending DPS

[Brightamethyst]

My issue with commending DPSes is that most of the time I honestly have no idea how well they did.

If they didn't do something to stand out, I don't know which one did better, and don't know who deserves it. Even more in eight-man content.

This is the biggest issue DPS have when it comes to recognition. It's often hard to gauge how well a DPS is doing at a glance simply because most of what they do is completely invisible.

Held aggro, didn't spin unnecessarily? Tank did a good job. No one died, debuffs cured quickly? Healer did a good job. BLM did... well, huh. I think I saw some fire at one point. That's good, right?

I mean there is a way to gauge DPS to recognise good DPS players, but you're too afraid of being called out and held responsible. Oh well.

Or we're playing on PS4 and can't run additional programs.

Even on PS4 it's not hard to see what's going on in a bad group, I had a Monk in Skalla today whose rotation was Bootshine > True Strike > Rock Breaker (on single target) or Snap Punch with no positionals, the RDM never used Scatter and hard casted Veraeros.

I didn't need a 3rd party program to see that things were dying slow and people weren't using proper rotations, let alone them using their CDs.
