Damage Modifiers are an attribute you can add to your MythicMobs to increase or decrease the damage they receive from various sources.
Some of these won't work on mobs (such as SUICIDE) under normal circumstances.
Damage Modifiers are completely optional, you only need to add the ones you want to use.

Examples
NOTE: A modifier of 1 will cause the mob to take normal damage from
that source, a number higher than 1 will increase the damage it takes by
that amount. A number lower than 1 will reduce the damage it takes by
that amount. And a 0 will make the mob immune to that damage source.
A negative value (below 0) will cause the mob to heal from that type of
damage. Note that this doesn't work if the mob is naturally immune to
that damage. (e.g. Iron Golems and fall damage, Blazes and fire
tick/lava damage)
In this first example our Armored Zombie mob is just a basic MythicMob with nothing added to it.
ArmoredZombie:
Mobtype: zombie
Display: '&aArmored Zombie'
Health: 40
Damage: 6
But, if we add the DamageModifiers attribute to him we can start messing around with his weaknesses and resistances. In this example we are going to make it so melee and projectile attacks only do 75% of their normal damage to our Armored Zombie.
ArmoredZombie:
Mobtype: zombie
Display: '&aArmored Zombie'
Health: 40
Damage: 6
DamageModifiers:
- ENTITY_ATTACK 0.75
- PROJECTILE 0.75
Alright, we have our damage resistant zombie now. Any melee and projectile damage it receives will be reduced by 25% (This includes from players and other mobs.) but now he seems a little overpowered, so, lets give him a weakness to go along with it.
ArmoredZombie:
Mobtype: zombie
Display: '&aArmored Zombie'
Health: 40
Damage: 6
DamageModifiers:
- ENTITY_ATTACK 0.75
- PROJECTILE 0.75
- MAGIC 1.25
OK, I'd say he's just about done now. Our little Armored Zombie is now well protected against projectile and melee attacks but we gave him a nice weakness to magic (splash health potions).
Our second example is a fire elemental- not only does this mob not take damage from burning, it also heals health when standing in fire, and regains even more health when in lava. Note: This DOES NOT work on Nether mobs as they don't take damage from fire at all, preventing them from having their fire and lava damage modified.
FireElemental:
Mobtype: zombie
Display: '&cFire Elemental'
Health: 20
DamageModifiers:
- FIRE -1
- LAVA -4
- FIRE_TICK 0
