I'm hoping this exchange only last a few pages so people get it out of their systems. I always find parsers have a habit of ruining much of the fun of learning your class, but there will always be people who want to compare their numbers to others. This leads to the inevitable "omg I got X on Titan everyone else is nub" "how did you do X pics or it didn't happen" "here's pic" "those are bullshit because of x y z" "you're bullshit" "no you"...etc ad infinitum. It's a pointless argument, and I'm hoping that is realised before the thread becomes nothing but parse pictures.
Play what you love, learn the mechanics, learn your priorities. For people who really do think they are doing something wrong, I could consider posting a help video if that was what was wanted, but I doubt that is the case. From my experience most players are doing everything right and all parse comparison serves to do is muddy the water.
I know you are both decent dudes, and I think it was a worthwhile discussion to have for a couple pages. It actually served as an excellent microcosm of how poisonous parse comparing can get. But please, as a personal favor to me, if this is going to continue make a new thread.
