    There are no dumb questions. How is anyone suppose to know what some acronym means until one asks or hears from another.

    APS = Attacks Per Second

    Edit: For more info on APS, here is one thread that I quickly found....though there might be better ones out that someone can refer you to: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=279561&highlight=attack+speed+basics

    No worries, it was just asked in the BM forums so I'll copy=paste my response from there.

    Aps are "attacks per second". If you look at your weapon you'll see "Attack Rate (atk/sec). That is how many times you hit per second, so 1 aps is 1 attack every second. 5 aps is 5 attacks in a single second. 2 aps is two attacks per second which equals and interval of 1 attack every .5 seconds. The highest damage per second output (dps) in the game is done by having high damage per hit (dph) and high aps so people are interested in increasing their attack rate by finding "-int gear".

    -int gear are pieces of equipment that decrease the time between attacks, meaning you attack faster. More -int gear means more aps.
