Adjust Dummy Health and Armor Values for Custom Testing

Customizing Dummy Stats

Modify your dummy's health and armor values to simulate different enemy toughness levels. This helps you understand how your weapons scale against stronger opponents.

Steps:

1. Right-click the dummy with an empty main hand to open its settings menu

2. Locate the stat you want to change (health, armor, or armor toughness)

3. Click the edit box next to that stat

4. Clear the current value and type a new number

5. Click Apply to save your changes

6. Attack the dummy to see how the new stats affect damage output

Testing Strategy

Start with low values and gradually increase them to find breakpoints where your damage output changes. This reveals how armor values and durability thresholds work in Minecraft. Test multiple weapons at the same settings to fairly compare their effectiveness, then adjust the dummy's stats to match specific mobs or bosses you're preparing to fight.
