[[File:Hel-Fire Animation.gif|framed|An animation to show off the Dummy being struck]]
 
The '''Target Dummy''' is a [[furniture]] item that serves as a test target for player attacks. It can be attacked repeatedly by players, displaying [[damage]] numbers just as [[enemies]] would, in order to test the effective damage output of a [[weapon]] as affected by any [[modifier]]s, current [[buff]]s, or equipped boost items. The Dummy is never destroyed by weapons, no matter how much damage it takes. It can be freed via any [[Pickaxe]].
 
 
The Dummy will also display damage and visual effects caused by damage-producing [[debuffs]], allowing players to test their damage output, frequency, and duration. Though it visually recoils when struck, the Target Dummy is unresponsive to [[knockback]] and will never move.

==Notes==
 
* The Target Dummy has 0 [[defense]]. As enemy defenses lower player-inflicted damage values, the damage values displayed when hitting a Dummy are only base values for the purposes of comparison, and will not usually represent the actual damage effectively inflicted on enemies during combat.
 
* The Target Dummy has an associated entity, which can despawn, making the dummy unresponsive. It can also be teleported and will fall down if there are no blocks below.
 
* The Target Dummy will not attract homing weapons or the attacks of most minions, though the Stardust Cell's ranged attack will affect it, and minions that harm on contact such as the [[Stardust Dragon Staff|Stardust Dragon]] or [[Deadly Sphere Staff|Deadly Sphere]] will deal damage as they pass through. Weapons that invisibly target enemies themselves, such as the [[Medusa Head]] or [[Magnet Sphere]], will also fail to function against them.
 
* Many special effects that occur on damaging an enemy, such as the homing pumpkins of [[The Horseman's Blade]], and the extra projectiles provided by the [[Phantasm]], will fail to activate against Target Dummies.
 
* Striking the Target Dummy will activate the [[Titanium armor|Titanium Armor]] bonus, should you be wearing the full set.
 
* The Target Dummy will not activate the Nebula's full set buff.
 
* Using the Life Drain on the dummy will grant the Life Drain buff
