Huge Dummies of the newbie area.

Could be possible being given information regarding the huge dummies like hitpoints, stats and so on?

I intend to design mobs a bit more dangerous than the mobs in the newbie area but still I don't want them to be overtely superior to the highest mob that the player had fought in the newbie area.

Edit by Dalvyn: Japcil, while I appreciate your help, you shouldn't post information that you get access to thanks to your privilege as a code tester on the test port, at least not without first consulting me (if it's a builder topic) or Mask (if it's a code-related topic).

Here's the huge dummy code.

Note that, as a building rule, dummies shouldn't be any higher than level 10-15 at most. Dummies are not really supposed ICly to be a good source of training.
