To be fair I generally don't look at my parser anymore and stopped paying attention to my damage. I just know what to do now.

But that's only after a long period of actually improving at the game with the aid of parsers and using tools like xivanalysis to evaluate what I can do better.

So ironically it's the high-end players who need parsers less than the casual players IMHO.
