Translation: I need a program to tell me if im doing it right...

You dont need a parser to tell you if you are doing a lot of dmg.. the numbers come up in game, but its too hard to pay attention right? And you use parser to judge others? I guess if you really lack the confidence to play without this I understand your plight, but itll be ok. If it helps ill stand there and tell you that you are dealing good dmg!
