A Damage Meter is a tool used in video games, particularly in multiplayer online games, to measure and display the amount of damage dealt by players during combat. It helps players track their performance and compare their damage output with others in the game. This information can be crucial for optimizing strategies and improving gameplay. Typically, a Damage Meter provides real-time statistics and can often be customized to show various metrics, such as total damage, damage per second (DPS), and damage taken. Many players use this tool to analyze their effectiveness in battles and to enhance their skills in games like World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy XIV.
