request to have training dummies adjusted

At present the training dummies are a nice addition and appreciated but the fact they lack any form of armour makes it impossible to test effects of armour pen on overall dps output, could you please add some armour values to them. something in the range of a standards tank value in the range of 3k - 5k.

It could be great to have 4 series of dummies :
1. Standard no armor passive dummies
2. Passive dummies with fixed resistances (clearly displayed with perma-buffs on them) to test various debuffs and effects of armor/magic pen.
3. Invulnerable dummies that periodically lose life until a certain percentage (like 10%), to test healing skills (ideally next to normal dummies to test healing on damage). Tricky part should be to make one/them join our group to test group heal... :/
4. Attacking dummies that go hostile on hit (like orange name mobs) with fixed offensive stats (that we can debuff as well) but low damage output (like 100 damage every 3 seconds).
Of course dummies should stop attacking after player reach low hp.

There are conveniently 4 stacks of dummies, now there is a lot of coding left to make them work like this... :p

would be useful to relocate them to mastery/renown trainers area, so you can test stuff

Indeed :p
Better, get one RR + Mastery trainer in War Quarters as well. That way you got one place to build and test all stuff.
So much more efficient, so many spared miles worth of fodder/naphta for our mounts :p

Would also be good if dummys had 0% to be crit for easier testing
