Monster types are used for the following things:
- A Pair of Stomping Boots can stomp monsters into fine paste based on monster type.
- A Happy Medium can Siphon Spirits of a monster and make spirits (drink) based on their monster type.
- An Artistic Goth Kid will generate free combats based off of the type of monster last fought.
Certain items and skills have special effects only on specific monster types:
- Feeding using the plastic vampire fangs will hypnotize humanoids.
- Torment Plant does physical damage to plants.
- bobcat grenades tear beasts to shreds.
- 4:20 bombs annihilate hippies.
- boxes of hammers destroy objects.
- boozebombs take care of orcs.
- holy bombs, batman obliterate the undead.
- Infectious Bite cannot zombify certain monster types (and these types also do not drop brains during Zombie Slayer runs).
Monster Manuel will display types for monsters you have defeated.
