Monster Special Abilities

The following is a list, organized by mob family, of abilities and resulting effects that players capable of dispelling should be prepared to eliminate. Note: Some groups will allow monsters to keep a buff to save mp or time from dispelling, i.e. a short-lasting Stoneskin (like crabs) or Berserk (in blink-tank parties). Talk it over with your group.
