Make Newport archery dummies as punching bags

[Laura]

It would be practical if we could attack the archery dummies in Newport with Hand to Hand, not just archery, so we could practice our H2H skills safely up to a certain level before using them in combat, sort of like punching bags.

And for those who are wondering, no, i'm uh, not asking this for Laurabel =P Most certainly for an alt, of course.

Now that wouldn't be a cheesey way to skill up a monk or bst...

Actually, I don't know if it's a night time thing, but i just noticed the archery dummies/scarecrows were gone in Northern Newport?

But in any case, punching bags/dummies are badly needed for H2H

If its possible to do up to x number of points sure...then again i don't se why not since after it reaches a certaitn ammount hand to hand tends to nto get increases that frequently.

Archery demands attention; H2H could be toggled and you could just idle there till it's mastered.

Ive never had a problem upping weapon skills personally on a character that actually used them.

Something practical i would like to see though is those dummies able to be used for throwing (if they are not already, havnt tried =\) and offensive spells.

There are throwing dummies in the rogue guild in Newport...or atleast there were about a month ago. Of course, only rogues can get there without invis and even then I don't know if someone would get attack with where the dummies are at down there. I think they should add a throwing dummy or two to the area around the monk guild. Perhaps they could enable the ability to use monk special attacks on the monk dummies since they practically require as much attention as archery/throwing.

Well, I believe there are per level caps, so even if a lvl 2 froglok paladin was just idling on the punching dummy, he couldn't master the skill all the way up anyways.

However, a high level character learning a new weapon skill would have enough with a couple hours leaving his char on autoattack.
