Monster Modifier

There are some vague or non-exact figures and information on this page. Some spading is required. What combinations of modifiers are possible? Is there a limit on modifiers per monster?

A Monster Modifier is a modifier on a monster that has an effect on the way it looks or behaves. It was introduced with the One Crazy Random Summer path, but can also be encountered outside the path, for example by wearing a dice ring. Bosses are not immune to this, however, after running away from a boss a new random modifier will be chosen.

Monsters can have multiple modifiers, for example by being on the One Crazy Random Summer path and having the Curse of Randomness will make every monster have 2 modifiers.

Modifiers that adjust a monster's stats take effect before adjustments for Monster Level.

Modifiers also function outside the challenge path.
