If those DPS checks aren't cleared, which requires everyone do do a set amount of damage in a specific time, it's an auto-wipe mechanic.
What was the trial?
It sounds like the raid lead was wanting to do a quick check on how much dps people can do. People just starting dpsing trials may not have done parses or a dummy to know how much dps they do and some people lie about what they can do.
I don’t know how experienced with trials you are but nearly all organised trials groups doing vet content will require dps to provide screen shots to prove how much dps they can do on the 21 mill raid dummy, or on console to provide a video. It would take too long to get everyone to do a full parse on the 21 mill dummy so maybe they were just getting people to do a quick check on the precursor dummy.
Most trials have a dps check somewhere that causes a group wipe if failed and mechanics are much harder with low dps.
wait, is that all the dps killing a 3m dummy in 18 seconds or each dps killing the precursor dummy in 18 seconds. I don't understand the point here.
and an 18 second kill is just a burst kill. drop a destro and you're done. this is the weirdest and dumbest dps check i've ever heard of...
Which dummy was it out of curiosity? (just being nosy here). To kill the 3m skele you would need 166k dps without support buffs, and the precursor only 17.8k unbuffed. Seems like a very strange request!
