Parsing unfair but okay?

[JennytheJester]

But wasnt there a site that can still pull of that information regardless if it is fflogs or not? I faintly remember that

There might be, but in all honesty and I come from WoW and when we saw someone apply to our guild but they hid their logs we automatically declined their application. Though in my defense we were a US top 25 guild, I need people to be able to perform and see it. I can't just bring them into a raid with 23 other people aside from me and them and yolo it. If we're pushing for progression early, I need to know that person actually is good.

No one being gatekeep. Not having a parse doesn't stop you from doing any content. It may, however, stop you from entittled yourself to a carry.

From someone that never played wow, that is understandable. You wanted to make sure that they are pulling there own weight which is fine.


For 14 I feel like it more to see what were the potency changes to see where they stand at in the category. Another note i feel like it is away to improve.

Instead of trying to impress people who seem to only care about big numbers why not start your own group?

I mean. Eh. Someone who got from Orange down to purple/blue/green parse over the years find it that is has no Value anymore.
Fflog was fun back in the days but not anymore. There are ways to get «top». (Padding, doing raids on monday where there are few people eteetc)

When years go by… people wont care for fflog. I certainly Dont anymore.
There was a person On PF savage (this tier) asked me to show my fflog for his kill run.
He saw blue and thought it was bad.. then i proceed to tell him that he should check out my older ones. Yikes he changed his mind and kept me.
But i left

Im glad i started playing this game on ps4. Made me more aware of my own skills than relying on other sort of 3rd party tool. But after changing to PC during ShB. Ouuf so worth it!

But i dont find parsing any harm if you JUST keep it for yourself. I just dislike the whole fflog thing going on these days… «defining players worth» ..

Realistically anything that's not sub-30 or so should be good enough for most people. Though, you mention your own parses, but I can't seem to find any from ya. Interesting.

I just cleared p1s with a dark knight in 0%... So sub 30 doesn't matter. As long as total DPS checks out.

In the end I have hit enrage more due to people not doing mechanics than DPS issues.

Interesting indeed. I could open and send u dm. Otw it is on private.

Someone always has to parse 0% in a given fight, that does not mean you should dismiss logs in your recruitment process. Try filling your party with nothing but resident grey loggers and see how well that goes. You will never clear the doorboss of P4S like that even if mechanics are performed correctly. At the very least not until the group outgears the content by a huge margin.

Sub-30 is a pretty arbitrary number to give, but nothing wrong with having any form of a standard in your recruitment.

In WoW people will get others or even the group killed just to parse higher it has become so normal and expected to use it in WoW that mechanics takes second priority...

I think it's pretty obvious when someone doesn't know what they're doing at least if you're paying a little bit of attention to other stuff going on than just yourself.
I can't rly think of a time where we died to enrage and everyone survived through the whole fight, if you can survive the whole fight then chances are that you're also good enough to push out enough dps to kill ( and I can easily see by inspecting if you're geared or not ).

I don't rly care if someone parses Orange when they're alive it matters to me more how much time they spend being dead.
But yeah to me I don't use it in fights I don't like the added pressure and it's not fun to me, I also found that I looked at it too much in WoW when I used dps meters.
Better to pay more attention to the fight instead.
But I enjoy it outside of content to hit dummies and see my characters growth with gear ( obv not accurate but still ).
