Template:Infobox Monster/FAQ

This template exists to answer commonly asked questions about Template:Infobox Monster.

This max hit is too low? Can it be fixed?
The max hits displayed for magic, melee, and ranged in the template are the base values of the monster's maximum hit. This value should not be changed, as it is important to our understanding of how the monster's mechanics work. If the true maximum hit is higher than this value, that should be elaborated in a "Strategies" section or subpage.

The 4th value for maximum hits is the maximum value of typeless damage. This value can only be known through observation, so it will always display the true maximum hit.

Why are the slayer masters out of order?
Sometimes a slayer monster will display the order of its assigning masters out of order. This is a run-time problem with the  function in Lua (see: Lua reference manual § next).

What is "immune to stat drain"?
Stat drain immunity is somewhat of a misnomer. All monsters can have their stats drained; however, some monsters, mostly bosses like Vorago, have the ability to regularly restore their drained stats. This is also called the "overload effect" by some, as the potion behaves similarly. If a monster is listed as immune to stat drain, then it has this stat-restoring ability.
