do you really need it? Can you not play without it? Do you not feel confident without one? Ps: you are wondering why people are afraid of DPS meters, but let me turn the question around. This trail and error doesn't only apply to content but also to building your class. it just requires more time to do it but it works. they start experimenting, creating different builds, what feels best, what works, and doesn't gear combo's, rotations, etc. People always want to be the best but not having an addon doesn't stop them. I disagree, if without a DPS meter there is no reason to strive for a better rotation then clearly you have not played a lot of MMO's that do not have this kind of add-ons. The best part is, even if you do try to optimize your character, there is no way of even telling. No reason to put any risk/reward toward your character. No DPS meter does ensure there is no reason to strive for a better rotation. The other question is whether or not Intrepid will stand up and take control of the situation by implementing their own one in to the game directly, thus allowing them control over who has it and how it can be used. The question is - how useful will they be, and will players get banned if they talk about their use (which is the only way Intrepid will be able to know they are being used).

Lastly, of course combat trackers for Ashes will exist, they are already being worked on. The behavior that many attribute to them is actually the behavior of players with or with this specific tool, and will continue with or without it. The above things are kind of not really debatable.Įnd of the day, combat trackers are tools. Players being able to objectively point out which class is under or over powered, rather than just guessing. Players being able to point out that the guy who thinks he is all that is actually not Players being able to prove to the idiot group/raid leader that their performance is just fine Peer reviewing posted builds to ensure they are actually good Players complaining their class is underpowered, or another class is overpowered Players thinking they are the best example of their class Players booting others out of groups and raids for performance reasons Players posting bulds on forums and such for others to copy Here is a very quick list of things combat trackers (DPS meters to people that know what they are talking about) are and are not needed for.
