Yoz.
DPS is heavily dependent on skills and buffs used, summons, DoT, the monster etc. The concept of a real-time DPS display is next to impractical, not simply because of the conceptual difficulty and implementation challenges, but also needs to be easily accessible and have sufficiently detailed breakdown without having e.g. 10 lines of different things. Range by itself isn't a bad thing. We all know why damage calculators don't exist readily. I won't bet on Nexon to have a good implementation of it, but lets wait and see.
I suspect they will either have a new UI window, with some form of expandable/collapsible breakdown (this would be ideal, and extremely useful in fact). Let's assume it applies to bosses only i.e. it shows up only when it hits a boss monster. The alternative... would be a new readout on the tooltip when hovering the cursor over the skill.
