I was screwing with the combat, which is amazing so far, and it is very difficult, to at least me and a couple of my friends, that it is hard to chain attacks on mouse and keyboard. This wouldn’t be a problem if we could perhaps have a dummy near the arena, where we can practice chaining attacks. Thoughts and opinions?

Definitely great idea, target dummy would be fantastic

the point of chaining attacks, as the instructor says, is to come at different angles to bypass enemy’s guard. kind of defeats the purpose if you can just come at an inanimate object and never learn what combos to use.
did you play with the instructor? he teaches you how to chain attacks to be effective.
You can always train in tutorial mode (ask for tutorial and there’s planty of opportunities to practice your strikes). But thanks for feedback, we will think about some solution - maybe “training fight” with wooden swords made available in the arena…

Yeah i think the problem for @Daniel_Boon was the dialouges.
A Tutorial is a Tutorial where a person tells you everytime
and every try the same words/sentences.
But we mean a Dummy where you can train without hearing explantions again.
The tutorial should never be changed, it is good as it is, from the construction.
But after that you should have and need the opportunity
to practice without an opponent.
You need also time to handle your newly acquired knowledge.
But Thank you anyway for your open ear!

How about a dialogue option, something like “Hey, I’d like to hone my skills, if you would help me with that…”
"Sure, what is it we should practice?"
Then you could chose a field to practice (e.g. “I think I need to practice riposte more”), so chosing his behaviour in the arena practically.

Sounds like a good idea. It should be further away from the main training ground and also there should be multiple dotted around
That’s irrelevant, Your oponents might as well be inanimate objects in some cases. The point is to train the muscle memory, for basic combo’s, maybe dodges, etc…
yes i did, and its not the fact of getting the person blocking, its the fact that the controls are alittle sticky and its hard to change swing directions quickly with the mouse. its more of how to get the timing down and how to do it efficiently, and then you can move on and fight the 3 combatants.
I love this idea, and you could practice with someone who wouldnt attack, but would block and dodge your attacks. thumbs up! 
Tut mir leid aber das muss ich jetzt auf Deutsch sagen, because it is very anstrengend…
ich verstehe das nicht! Warum man ein neues feature disliken muss.
Kommt mir nicht in den sinn, nicht besser als Oblivion Community.
Einfach und unkonstruktiv denken.
dabei wird jedes Mittelalter Spiel mit diesem bethesda Müll verglichen.
