Monster Modifier

This page is in need of content. Is there a limit on modifiers per monster?

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

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 by wearing the equipment rewards from the path. Bosses are also affected by modifiers, but new modifier(s) will be chosen if that boss is not defeated.

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.
