    Robust is the standard for Trials players ...

    You want robust for any serious DPS testing, as you can build for burst DPS on the regular one. Sustaining the 6mil dummy is a much better test of your DPS skills.

    I have the normal one, it looks better, don't want ugly things in the house :p The robust one, you can find that in every guild hall!

    going for normal the difference:
    3m hp -18,500 Spell resistance, 15,620 Physical resistance
    6m hp - 18,200 Physical and Spell resistance

    All dummies have the same resistances; there is no difference between the two.

    And as others have said, for serious DPS testing, you want 6M. For practice, testing out different gear, and general playing around, 3M works just fine.

    Thx for that info! I found those numbers time ago here in the forum and saved in a txt file to remember, I was genuinely convinced it was accurate. Thank you.

    6 mil if a friend is using eledrain.

    3 mill for self buffed practice.

    No point mastering a rotation that uses ele drain...

    I use the 3mil skeleton for my testing and solo parses. I switch to the 6mil skeleton for buffed parses.

    Standard skellies are usually used for parsing.

    Only difference for me would be sustain - if you have high DPS, the 3 mil skel probably won't last long enough to test your resource sustainability.

    @code65536
    I have not tested the numbers since they were originally released, but have they been fixed? When it was originally released the numbers were what @RANKK7 quoted, tested with the 2H ultimate.

    @IronCrystal I heard the same claim about different resistances a few weeks after the Homestead launch, so I conducted a few tests of my own at the time. The results showed that the resistance was the exact same between the 3M and 6M dummies.

    If they are different then it would be a bug that needs to be reported and fixed. But last I checked, they are not different.

    It's possible they were fixed in that hotfix they did server side or something that fixed other bugs at the release of homestead, including the bug with daedric curse (multiple people using it were stacking per pet or some thing). All I know is on day one of patch the numbers were different and it spread quickly.

    I appreciate all of the info everyone! Seems to make more sense to buy the regular for now from the writ vendor. Thanks!

    Robust one I thought was for testing sustain with full raid buff

    I ended up buying and making the regular target dummy. First dps test was only 24k :(. I got to almost 27k in around 30 minutes but i'm far worse than i thought. Hadn't tested ever before.

    You are still better than most ESO players lol, don't worry. Only need more dps if you wanna try to complete vMoL.

    How do you get the skeleton target dummies? How much are they? Can both be placed within 1 home? Thanks.

    You get the praxis from the writ vendor in your alliances capital city or you can get someone with it to make one. You need various crafting ingredients and an animus stone from the same writ vendor. It costs over 100k on PS4 to make one not including the praxis price. I'd just try and find a friend who has one honestly. I'm assuming both can be placed in a home.
