Combat Dummy request

[linay]

Are there still execute-style abilities or other abilities that require the enemy's hp to decrease? If there is no such ability, why not just have 1 type of dummy with guaranteed hits at all levels and infinite hp?

All you need is a level 1 dummy anyway. The old leveled dummies are from a time when accuracy was a thing.

Dummy level doesn't matter at all anymore.

I think the problem with lower level dummy now is that it can die too quickly and there is some delay before it fills its HP back up, so that might cause a problem.

I dont think thats the case anymore. My FC only has low level dummies, and it hasn't caused any issues for us.

I'm pretty sure they do just have infinite HP now, and there are no more low hp attacks.

I haven't had any issues with that using a level 60 dummy at my house. It never dies, it just reaches 1 HP then refreshes to full. Combat is never interrupted and debuffs aren't lost.

That's good then if that's the case. That wasn't my experience in the past, but I could remember it incorrectly.

This was only a real issue (or rather 'a bit messy'), when there were still abilities only executable at target HP below a certain value (Assassinate, No mercy).

Yep, that's what I meant by execute-style abilities.
