So this game has dps checks but we can't talk about our dps in game?

So, what exactly do you intend to talk about for this so-called "DPS check issue"?
You want to.. call out someone who's not doing as good as those imbalanced numbers tell us from the BEST players?
Or... perhaps you want to 'motivate' a DPS to do better while, I don't know, they are trying their best?

There is no reason to "talk about DPS during DPS check" I can think of. However, I can tell you how my DC does it;
there was a point of Circle Three Savage where nobody died but we got enraged. This is 100% testament that DPS is not at its fullest potential.
This does NOT need people to be called out for, this does NOT require people to be told DPS check was low.
It simply means this group is not able to go together, because it's imbalanced.
So what do we do? We disband. End of discussion.

There is no reason to rage about the "Can't talk about DPS while there is DPS check" basically you ask permission to embarrass or call out somebody. And that's a huge nope from me too. I am somebody who reclears weekly through Raid Finder and practices through Party finder,
So I understand the frustration, but I cannot agree with this argument. (Sorry!)

The thing is, those "inbalanced numbers" aren't just from the BEST players. So in your example, you guys just disbanded. That's great, but without a parser, how would someone realize they are not playing at a level that needs to be played for that content? Want a perfect example of how this parser and features from it can be useful? https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...fair-but-okay/ post #312 and #314. The person stated "I have to question if, when I'm performing my rotation correctly and consistently, not failing mechanics, and not dying, highly geared and fully materia'd, if I'm STILL registering with medicore parses, if this information is even worth taking seriously". However, because of the parser and the associated analysis, it turns out they were not using critical skills and their rotation was in fact not perfect. Without this information, said person would have never have realized they could potentially be the problem. This is exactly how the tool should be used, so yes, in your group if someone performing relatively low, there shouldn't be anything against removing them since they are causing you to not reach the enrage time. Does that mean you need to ridicule them? No, but it also might mean that instead of disbanding the group, the lower performing player could be removed, swapped in with someone who can play a little better, and then the group could continue.
