So i always had this question what does it mean. When people are LF raid members they say 150K DPS or 10M DPS, what is it ?
150K dps pert hit?

DPS stands for Damage Per Second, 150k means that you are doing 150000 dmg per second.

you download recount or skada addon and test your dps for 2-3 minutes on raider dummy (boss level)

Dude i know what is DPS, and i do have recount, what i mean is how can i know that i can do 150K dps. So here is the question: 150K*60(1 min) = 9M so if i do 9M in 1 min it means i do 150K am i right ?

to be honest if you know what recount is and what DPS stands for; i dont know what you are asking. For us to do the math for you? Recount has a setting that shows you your dps...

im sorry im just confused, it seems like you understand it.

By your math's calculation, it is 150k dps or 9m damage overall within a minute. Hope that answers it. If not, I don't think anyone of us understand your question properly.
