Column	Accepted Values	Description
Index	Number, one per monster	Monster ID, referenced by all other files (SetBase, MonsterAI, ItemBagManager, etc.).
DropLog	0 or 1	Only controls whether this monster's deaths are recorded in the drop log—it does not affect whether the monster drops items or not.
Rate	Number	General monster difficulty/reward multiplier (used internally in health/damage calculations).
Name	Text enclosed in quotes	Monster name.
Level	Number	Monster level—used in damage, defense calculations, and level ranges for several events (e.g., MonsterLevelMin/Max filters in other files).
MaxLife	Number	Maximum health.
MaxMana	Number	Maximum mana.
DamageMin / DamageMax	Number	Minimum/maximum attack damage.
Defense	Number	Physical defense.
MagicDefense	Number	Magical defense.
AttackRate	Number	Monster hit rate.
DefenseRate	Number	Monster defense rate.
MoveRange	Number	Radius in which the monster moves around its spawn point.
AttackType	Number (fixed code)	Monster attack type (melee, ranged, magical, etc.)—a fixed list used by the combat engine.
AttackRange	Number	Attack range.
ViewRange	Number	Monster vision/detection radius.
MoveSpeed	Number	Movement speed.
AttackSpeed	Number	Attack speed.

MonsterSkill	Number, or 0	Skill used by the monster (referenced in MonsterSkill.txt/MonsterSkillUnit.txt). 0 = none.
Resistance1 – Resistance4	Number from 0 to 255	Resistance to Ice, Poison, Lightning, and Fire, respectively. There are no Earth/Wind/Water resistance columns for monsters in this file.

Notes

• DropLog follows the same pattern as other server files: it is only a logging filter and does not actually disable drops.

• ItemRate and MoneyRate multiply the base drop chance (defined in other files, such as Common.dat)—they are not the final drop chance by themselves.

• AttackType and Attribute use fixed internal server codes; it is not possible to create a new type simply by editing this file.
