Doubt it’s needed as a hotfix.
Awesome! 
Dummy DPS-check wave incoming.
You could use the dummy to proc buffs then start cruci and get faster kills tho, probably

There are no such buffs you’d be desperate to activate BEFORE Crucible. You could charge autoattacks but that’s not something that would break the game or be unfair. You can already set up temporary pets if you accept this form of charge-up in speedrunning (most don’t).
Dummy would be useful to check out your stats with buffs on attack. Since Crucible is already very convenient to make changes to your char, a dummy would make it even better.
Fantastic ideas! What is chance they will be in game?
When you mention CC out of nowhere, what do you mean? Can you describe this please? Might be useful to communicate it thoroughly over in @mad_lee’s thread about perceived difficulty increase.
Well I mean CC can come from minor enemies, you haven’t focused on. Also you can be freeze by Moose with capped freeze res or disrupt with 80% disrupt. So CC res is very common in Crucible. And it’s sometimes impossible to physically avoid all of that in cluster of enemies.

Yeah it seems freeze/trap/disrupt resists are essential as threats/debuffs all hitting simultaneously or at rotating increments would be deadly to any build, so those resists in crucible builds would be very very important, and even in overcapped values not enough to completely ensure safety in a situation of cluster.
Personally I want 150-170 in crucible to be an extreme challenge but it does also feel that the crucible mode now mainly exists for min-maxers to test their builds. 90% of the time i prefer shattered realm but its a different beast all over, you need to build your character a bit differently for SR than you would in crucible and generally i find its harder to make a build solid for sr75-76 than it is for 150-170.
I have noticed alot of chain cc nonsense lately though in crucible even with capped CC resists. Be nice if there was some diminishing returns so you cant get spam stunned for 2 seconds every 3 seconds.
