DPS Class info moved and restructured... tempted to delete
'''DPS''' or '''Damage Per Second''' is generally considered an [[MMO]] term, which describes how much damage a [[character]], [[spell]], skill, ability or item can produce on average per second.
==DPS Class==
In other games, a class role refers to a class or character build that achieves a specific goal during group combat. There are generally four types of these classes: a [[tank]], a [[heal]]er, crowd control, and DPS. The role of the DPS player is to inflict as much damage as possible to the enemy or enemies in the area. The tank keeps the enemy's attention, keeping the enemies from damaging other party members, and the healer keeps everyone alive during the entire process.
==On Items==
Hence, the DPS display is just a general indicator of the type of damage a player can expect.

All classes in the Diablo games are designed as DPS classes[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/bashiok-speaks/], capable of dealing out big damage and clearing any difficulty playing solo.
