Post SDPS as an option #190

Open Strumph-8 opened 1 month ago

When you send a parse to EQ it only does DPS. Is there a option I haven't found to send SDPS or could there be?

People get confused by DPS vs SDPS which is why it only does the one. Especially if it were configurable and some people showed one and some people showed the other.

Total damage is the important number to see who contributed the most and DPS is useful to see what people are capable of outside of death or other downtime during a fight. Not sure if it's worth changing at this point as it's been like this for years.

I'll leave this open for now. If more people really want it I could add an option for it. I do think it could cause confusion tho.

DPS is a good gauge of character damage contribution SDPS is a good gauge of player damage contribution

Everyone is used to DPS thou so it would add confusion

Why is JoeBobSuperDPS so low on the dps ranks?! Because they engaged when the boss was at 70% health and only attacked half the mobs the rest of the raid killed...
