Talk:Training Dummy

Could we call all these mobs "Wooden Dummy" as a race or something? Rolandius ( talk  -  contr ) 10:55, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Horde Training Dummies:
I just added some references to the level 1 dummies in Theramore. I don't play horde so can someone add information for the horde equivalent of this? thx : ) Curvycom (talk) 10:24, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

How do they function?
The page says: "Training Dummies are mechanical NPCs that enable you to test your dps out on different level mobs."

Oh really? And just how do they do that?

I spent quite a while attacking a Training Dummy and it did not report my character's DPS at all, as far as I could determine. Sometimes a set of numbers appeared over the dummy's head but none of them were labeled nor was any key provided -- quite typical of Blizzard, in my experience. They incorporate all sorts of features into the game but never document them. Players must figure out for themselves what the feature is and does by trial-and-error investigation. Personally, I just don't have the time to waste, aside from the fact that I just don't learn anything by trial-and-error. Period.

Someone needs to explain just exactly how to obtain any benefit from using the Training Dummy before we waste more time and effort for no profit.

Should we make a page special for these or a sub section here? ((Yuvyuv111 (talk) 18:33, 27 November 2019 (UTC)))
