    Oriental Striking Dummy Level 1?

    Just made an oriental striking dummy. 3 star (90) and when I placed it on my property I immediately noticed it was only level 1, and not level 50 like the others i've made.. is this normal? and WTF?

    I noticed this too, I wasn't sure if it was intended or not, but it's really hard to calculate your DPS seeing any attack completely depletes its HP...

    Hey guys,

    We'll see if it's possible to beef up the oriental striking dummy and change it into a level 50 dummy in the future.

    No thanks, if anything I'd like the other dummies to be made level 1. We bought the oriental one specifically because it's level 1, so our low level members can practice their rotations without missing all the time. There's no reason for them to be level 50.

    There's no reason to have them level 1 lol, wtf are you parsing before 50?

    There's no reason to have any of them at 50, they don't take more damage or less depending on level. There's no "level correction" like ffxi had.

    Also hope they keep this one @ lvl 1; I hadn't previously been aware it was but am now glad to hear there is that option available. (even if all of them should have always been lvl 1)

    Edit: and can SE reps stop coming into threads and saying "we'll look into changing this" based on 1 or a few people's idea? Get a consensus first. (which is impossible to do on this forum because of how many players avoid it)

    Not parsing, but definitely practising.
    I ran into this problem with trying to practice with my NIN. My puny little lvl 30-something NIN couldn't even hit our lvl 50 dummy.

    Yeah, misses don't trigger next part of your combo so you definitely don't need to be parsing dps #s to benefit from 100% acc.

    Of course the other solution would be to make them all lvl 50 but give them ridiculously low evasion.

    I suppose a follow up question to this that I have would be:

    Would the striking dummies stay level 50, or will they be raised to level 60 in the expansion? Or perhaps there will be new striking dummies that are set to level 60?
