Its just the path to the dark side. Like I said, next up is gearscore, so we can fracture the playerbase even more with asinine requirements.

You don't need a combat parser for validation of self worth at the expense of others.
What part of "I want to improve" is difficult to understand?

You must be stupid, i said SUPPOSED to, now it has only easy easy and easy difficulty levels and it wont change before they add logs that they say they are adding. IM one of those people you mention above, my time runs out today and didnt even need to be in a top guild. ToR nightmare modes is easiest raid content in MMO gaming history.

Anyways, pretty much every MMORPG with "serious" endgame, hell even without endgame has had combat logs/parsers in MMORPG history.
And HERE we can agree. If this game develops a serious end game you will see me in line clamoring for a combat log. Until that time the only real impact they will have is going to be mostly negative.

Look at their hp.

<13k hp = noob
14-15k hp = shrug
16k+ hp = pro
18k+ hp = pro tank

And that's why those games communites suck. Period. Because it pits Player vs Player in a PvE enviroment. It is a court of public opinion - and the judges are fledgeling idiots.

Trying a boss 15 times is what raidng and growing with a group is all about. Trial and Error.

DPS parses weren't always available in WoW, they wern't available in DAoC, they weren't available in EQ.

It is a newer trend to this genre. It is a destructive trend. One that I find is refreshingly left out of this game.
