Dragon Flight scores

Is there a way to show them again?
Since mod 9, all I see is what place I got. 1st, 3rd, etc.
They were a nice way to see how buffs / changes to gear or enchants affected my dps without having to dig through combat logs.
DON'T
PANIC!

    you score high in dragonflight when u hit the empowers. try hit only boss and you will go down ranks.

    Dragonflight points don't matter. Get ACT if you want to celebrate your epeen.

    1. I know empowerers give better score - they have much less damage resistance.
    2. I know the points don't really matter.
    3. No, there is no option that I can see to show them.

    As I stated originally, they WERE a nice easy way to get a general idea if your dps changed dramatically from changes / buffs from other players / etc.

    What is ACT? Some kind of (against the ToS) addon?

    And if it's a violation of ToS, then there will be hundreds upon thousands of users banned.

    ACT doesn't actually interact with Neverwinter, it just reads data out of the combat text file that Neverwinter creates automatically. As far as I know there's no communication between the two programs. Neverwinter isn't sending any data to ACT and ACT isn't passing anything back to Neverwinter.

    ACT is like a reader and recorded what you do, just like you are using Video recording that came with on keyboard, super-screenshot format.
    ACT doesnt do with 3rd party.

    ACT doesn't actually record anything in-game. Neverwinter records the data and saves it in a text file in the Logs folder within the Neverwinter folder. ACT does not have to be running to do so. By the same token, Neverwinter does not need to be running when you parse the data. All ACT does is take the data that the game itself recorded and analyse it and render it into a (relatively) easy to understand format. Ironzerg is correct in saying there is no direct interaction between the two.

    And to be clear, the devs have said that using ACT is allowed.

    ACT - Advanced Combat Tracker. As stated its a log parser that is built to parse logs of all types, Neverwinter included.

    Here's some instructions:

    Note, I've had conversations about whether ACT is allowed with multiple Cryptic staff members as well as community moderators. ACT is NOT a violation of the rules. There have been times, in fact, where the Devs have actually requested ACT parses.

    If you have the most recent version of act it may not work, drop back a version.
