Monsters
From Townstons
Monsters are also referred to as mobs, which stands for Mobile Objects. They are creatures in dungeons that can be killed for experience and loot. In dungeons, mobs are found in large groups and will attack you as soon as you enter a certain range.
There are several categories of mobs. Listed from weakest to strongest: Fodder, Normal, Champion, Hero, and Boss.
Monsters, like players, can be roughly divided into three main "classes": fighters, rangers and mages. Fighters needs to get close to players to do damage. Rangers and mages are capable of attacking players from a range. Note that ranged and magic monsters will move away from you if you get too close to them: they will always try to maintain a set distance between you and them. Sometimes as they are moving away they will give up their chance to attack, so that they can be "chased."
Most monsters fall into five basic categories. To find the listing for a specific monster, check the Category page for its type.
