I almost hijacked this thread: Armor on Target Dummies with this, so I'll move it to my own 
Currently target dummies are quite limited, they have no defence and always show a higher DPS than what you could reach when fighting real enemies. Also none of you homing weapons work on them which can limit how well they perform in the tests.
Here's what I propose, right clicking on any dummy brings up an interface with a list of options, the options are as followed:
The dummies perhaps shouldn't activate any of your set bonuses such as the Spectre and Nebula health regen, as this could be exploited, though perhaps offensive buffs could still work but would be reset immediately upon striking a real enemy so you can test your true DPS.
Other damage reduction bonuses can never be activated as dummies don't attack.... yet.
So thoughts? Good idea or should I leave the site forever and never post again?

Here's what I propose, right clicking on any dummy brings up an interface with a list of options, the options are as followed:
Dummy max health: [Infinite-9999999]
(When it runs out of health it breaks but you can replace it, a good way to see how long it takes to deal certain damage)
Defence: [0-9999]
Damage resistance: [0%-99%]
Knockback immunity: [-100%-100%]
(I'd love to send dummies flying around
)
Projectiles home in? [Yes/No]
Immune to Debuffs? [Yes/No]
Minions target dummy? [Yes/No]
