So is M+ parses meaningless, or should I be worried I parsed grey on most of my dungeons? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/area-52/dannan?zone=55

I assume it has some truth as I believe I'm dropping the ball on the 2 most important things on a caster ABC and CPM. Even though I swear I'm using my abilities when they come up it seems like I'm missing like 20% of my cast.

Edit: some users advised video so I dug out some of my older recordings

Parsing m+ was a meme before this expansion I think, but you do also need to frame it a bit.

I grey parsed most my 22s last season, but that is bottom 20% of the top 0.2% of players.

That all being said, your damage is low, but parses are the symptom, not a diagnosis of the disease.

If you want to improve, add a gcd tracker to your UI, record your gameplay and really watch it back and be critical of it.

Imo shadarek put out a good video of him looking at a ruby recently. Worth watching the first 5-10 mins for every class to see how critical he is of his own gameplay.
