    Don't know why you think housing area being a sanctuary makes it a non-combat zone. I can think of several sanctuaries out in the world where you can be engaged with an enemy.

    Prepare to turn your houses into battle training camps because training dummies are on the way as an outside furnishing! Once the implementation timing has been decided we’ll make an update.

    If you do add a personal training dummy for FC/housing, it would be interesting if you could set the dummy to "save" battle data when testing the potency of certain rotations. Such as you set a time limit say 30 seconds to 2 mins, and once the time starts you engage with the dummy until the timer is up and once the time runs out it will give you information like your hardest hitting skill and total damage.

    This, right here, would be ultimate. An easy implementation such as this would allow us to better optimize our gear as well has have one, solid, completely accurate way to test stat changes, dps and curing potency. It would be such an easy addition at that, so it really feels like it comes down to whether the devs actually want to implement it, or not.

    I would prefer that it did actual DPS calculations over the entire time we've been hitting it. Occasionally popping up an average DPS number every few seconds while you are sustaining an assault. This would make it so a lot of players don't need parsers to determine their rotations.

    Please please please please please please please please please please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have been a good boy and not used any parser because its against the ToS, but I would REALLY love this. I play MNK as my main dps class and there is a lot to consider there...DoT clipping, det builds vs crit builds vs SkSp builds and which skills to use if I am overweight in any of those, etc.

    Just giving me a "total damage done" after a time limit has expired would be fantastic! I don't need a dps read-out I can do DMG / TIME on a piece of paper if I have to #longdivision.

    You can have it be really expensive! I don't care! Levi Barb + 3 different X mode weapons + 2mil gil? DONE. You can even use ADS plating or a "Allagan Tomestone of Calculus" that you can make drop from Turn3, make it look like a magiteck-ish allagan contraption. If you are not going to let us parse, at least give me some way to get some empirical data.

    instead of this could we get other issues fixed. so much more where time could be invested in making things work better and improve then adding furniture.

    It's almost like they have multiple teams specialising in different fields working on different things at the same time, graphics artists and story writers really won't be much use on the networking or programming fronts, unless you actually want a complete novice tampering with code.

    Great news. Just hope the FC house and its nearby surroundings are flare proof.
