Please let PS4 parse our dps like pc

[Granyala]

Yes, please. Just a personal DPS counter would be nice.
I understand SE's stance on it, but the way it is right now it's hurting players that don't parse.
Good luck getting into a static if all your parses are uploaded by randoms. Right now I have zero control on what performance data is being uploaded about me.
I might be on an alt job or it was a chaotic run. Being a healer my DPS mostly depends on the party's performance and how much extra healing and rezzing they need. If someone uploads a parse where I was rezing and healing the first timers all the time, it won't look good.

That's not how recruitment works.
People that analyze logs will not only analyze your performance but the performance of the whole raid. They will see that you rezzed, they will see that they ate a ton of avoidable damage.

Most importantly: they will take you to trial runs to assess your performance in a more controlled environment.
We all know random raids can be chaotic.

I really wish people would understand that productive log analysis goes way beyond E-Peen DPS/HPS or %ile numbers.
Sure E-Peen can be a lot of fun on farm bosses but E-peen isn't the reason most raids look at logs.

You are not obligated to reply nor stalk me.

You indirectly referred to me, accusing me of being inable to assess given data. Yes I do feel obligated to respond in such a case.
No stalking involved, I saw the quote per chance.

You seem to be confused on the concept of accountability. Who are you to hold someone else “accountable” if they’re doing mechanics? Are you only parsing when you’re group leader or are you just joining someone else’s group and deciding yourself to hold others accountable? DPS parses aren’t “accountability” but that mentality is exactly why FFXIV benefits from not having them as a support add on.

You're tank.
Lets say I am your healer. I have to do a mechanic and while that happens you eat a tank buster, aren't topped off (b/c I did a mechanic, remember?) and you die.

Now what are the odds that you will hold ME accountable for your death because I followed the mechanic w/o optimizing my play (a.k.a. using isntant casts / stutter step casting etc) and failed to keep you alive?

I'd say 100%. As you should because you died due to my crappy performance (despite me handling the mechanic correctly).

Now I am the DPS. I do a mechanic. I do not DPS during that. My performace is subsequently pretty crap because I have a lot of time I am inactive in. When I am active, I do my schtick correctly, good rotation etc. But in the end my DPS is still too low to beat the enrage and the other DPS cannot compensate for my lacking ability to handle mechanics AND keeping up the pressure on the boss.

Should I not be accountable for that just as the healer in the example above? Why should my inadequate performance be shielded from scrutiny?!
Why should 7 other players wipe repeatedly due to that fact?

SE's stance on parsers is completely illogical and unjust. Part of the playerbase gets to derp however they want and none is the wiser while another parts tiniest mistakes are readily visible and are being punished immediately. Parsers only do one thing: they even the playing field in terms of responsibility between DPS and Healers/Tanks.

They are for you, you may know how to use them, but 95% of the population does not.
Sure parsers are useful and fun, but making them into the game will only make their use necessary like they are in WoW.
It will make this game way more toxic than it is now, simply because people will not treat them the same way you do, they will see someone in grey bum kick him out, despite logs being collect at first time runs with not well geared character and people will be judged left and right without context.

For the sake of normal modes, SE wont give us parsers, people tend to get angry over content easier than savage. It will not improve average skill, just blew casuals from the game away.
