Damage per Second

Damage per Second (DPS) is the amount of damage a weapon is capable of dealing every second. The damage varies between weapons and vehicles, with some having higher amounts than others. To calculate the Damage per Second of a weapon, the rate of fire and damage must be known beforehand, since the equation to calculate Damage per Second requires it. The equation to calculate Damage per Second can be expressed as:

(Rate of Fire ÷ 60) × Damage

When the weapon in question is a burst weapon, the expression is changed into:

(Bursts per Minute ÷ 60) × Total Damage of Burst
