What I am proposing is a way to check your weapons DPS by shooting targets, and said target would display the current DPS. It would be much like the current hit damage number except that it would average the damage for each second. In Dungeon Defenders, there are test dummies setup for you to shoot, slice, burn, etc. and it's really nice to be able to see that one weapon has better damage than another.

This would give us a much better understanding of our weapons, and what methods produce the best DPS, and what methods do not. Also we could compare weapons of different sorts and see which one is the best. This might go well in the ATH, or some other room designed primarily for dps, maybe one for each stratum?

There could even be different targets like wolvers, fiends, undead, etc. these targets would not die, and would be stationary, and would not attack. Given all those factors, we could reliably see our DPS.

Anyone else like this suggestion?

I say expand this out. How

I say expand this out.

How about a Recount option/module? Tracks the following fun things:

DPS (Damage per Second)
Total Damage Done
Total Damage Taken
Total Healing Done

And the stats will show the group's stats so you can see who's the dead weight.
