What about a Trainingdummy in your Hideout?

Hello everyone,

basically what the title says. Would be nice if you could place a dummy target in your hideout, which displays the damage the same like cumulated hits on boss target.
Or even have a small arena prop, that you can freely place in your hideout and setup certain configurations there. Like having enemies in a circle around you, having 5 targets grouped up, etc. etc.

I really like to experiment with skills, but benchmarking is hard - especially without PoB (which shouldn‘t be a must have for any player to begin with). E.g. if you skill into „projectile speed also increases damage“ in your passive tree and put the 40% projectile speed support gem into your ability, no damage increase is displayed in the skill window (which is obviously a bug), but the damage increase is there.

To test this, mapping doesn‘t help, because everything is still oneshot for me. So I would have to pick a map with really crazy modifiers like elemental resistance + life + (…) to test out if this does indeed improve my build.

Or I could join any map boss to have damage displayed, but why should i do a map boss to
benchmark my AoE clear?!

There are already small video clips attached to the skill menu, it also would help newcomers to PoE to hands on test new skills for their exile.

I think this well underlines, why (in my opinion ofc) we would benefit from something like a training dummy (or dummy arena) in our hideout.

What do other members of the community think about this?
