practice dummies

Post by synaris »

two dummies that you can initiate combat with.

one made of a lot of cloth and straw. for testing your damage against. so you can see EXACTLY how much damage you can do with your fists or with a weapon and compare different qualities and strength amounts ect. getting the answer to questions like "is this bear cape worth more than a helm?" ect.

the other made of wood, for testing your combat weight against. its unarmed and melee combat weight is its average quality, trippled (so 10 10 10 would be a combat skill of 30) it would be designed so that it would spin when struck, counterattacking you for VERY little (1-2) damage with no wounds, hits for all attack types and ignores armor. so you can test your own combat weight against a fake opponent.

like? hate? what would you change and why?

It has been requested before but its good to remind it to the devs.
I like it. I rate this 8/10 plus a 60's batman insignia for you.

Don't get me wrong, I wasnt trying to critize you. It's a good idea and I would really want to see it implemented.

i know. i just thought i was the first to suggest it. this isnt a fruit basket idea or adding diamonds to the game. i thought people wouldnt think of something more mundane like training dummies.

Jorb sayd he has a file with some of the suggestions on it with herrings on top of it, or something like that. But we dont have a stixked thread with the ideas of the players, so we probably suggest same things most of the time. Even if that post existed, with the sitty search function we have, nobody would notice it or check it. :/

I think I actually drew one even for Legacy back in the day.
