Now, obviously this is hugely inaccurate and should not be trusted, for one, it doesn't account for sustained tank boosting/repair/recharge which needs to be 'broken' before you start breaking into the buffer. Mission setups favour sustained tank over buffer so that the incoming damage from all the NPC ships can be soaked up in a managed faship. PVP setups concentrate on maximizing the total damage buffer, in fleets it's highly likely that all the enemy ships will be concentrating on one ship at a time and whoever is picked is going to die, so maximizing the buffer is the best way to slow them down. A mission Dominix might repair 500dps, but only have 60,000 ehp, but a PVP buffer Domi might have no local repair, but 140,000 ehp.

Your little rookie ship with a civilian gun can put out 2 dps, but with good skills and well selected gear it's possible to get almost 150dps from these free ships, with battleships optimized with close range high damage weapons can do over 1000 hp per second damage. To kill Outposts and other non-moving targets you roll in the dreadnoughts and put them in siege mode which renders them immobile while boosting their damage output, even then, capturing stations takes hours and hours.
