Useful Dummy

caveck

Would it be possible to make a useful dummy?
For instance, have a dummy with a 5 minute timer that calculates all of the damage done to the dummy within that time frame and shows you how much you did at the end/or just has a paingiver chart. This would be really helpful for us console players to test out different things who don't have ACT like the PC players.

I like the idea. Maybe even have the dummy give us a breakdown of how much of which forms the damage was ie: critical,Elemental, standard etc

Take this one step further: make this into a "training room" similar to fighting games.

For a story justification, have Lord whatshisface hire the Illusionist to create this training room for PE guard recruits.

-have fixed damage weapons with enchant slots (be able to set the weapon damage range, but make this modifier a temporary item which disappears when you leave the training room.)
-be able to input the innate DR of the dummy
-be able to set the number of dummies available (1 for general testing, spawn a few in a clump to test AoE attacks)
-be able to input the HP value of the dummy, as well as the % of HP it has.
-be able to input the Resistance Ignored of the dummy
-be able to have the dummy attack, as well as set modifiers to the attacks (ex: Crit, Crit Severity, piercing damage, everfrost damage, attack speed, AoE/non AoE)
-be able to set the dummy's base damage.
-be able to set the Tenacity of the dummy
-be able to practice on any boss encountered, with their cooresponding mechanics (ex: if a GF got rekt by Drufti in FBI, he can go to the training room and practice up on dealing with Drufti).
-be able to enter the party with 1-25 players (25 sounds excessive, but it's if you want to replicate Tiamat for some reason)
