# Introduction # Introduction
Stats are values that affect all kinds of mechanics across Players, Mobs, Items, Skills, and more. The Stats system can be complicated but learning them is worth the trouble for the powerful things you can do with them, such as combat changes, technical utilities, and game design elements. Stats are values that affect all kinds of mechanics across Players, Mobs, Items, Skills, and more.
While Stats system can be complicated to learn at first, its versatility will enable you to do very advanced things, such as combat changes, technical utilities, and the creation of new game design elements.
Stats are defined in the file `stats.yml`. This file can exist in the root directory of MythicMobs (`/plugins/MythicMobs/`) or in a Pack folder. (`/plugins/MythicMobs/Packs/CoolPack`)
Stats are defined in the`stats.yml` file. This file can exist in the root directory of MythicMobs (`/plugins/MythicMobs/`) or in a [Pack](MythicMobs/-/wikis/Packs) folder.
# Configuring a Mob with Stats:
It's important to be aware that players get all of their base stat values from the `stats.yml` file, while mobs get only some of their base values from the `stats.yml` file. # Custom Stat Options
Options that can be used in the Stat in order to better customize it
This example features `Some_Mob` and three configured stats: `CRITICAL_STRIKE_CHANCE` as configured in the `Stats:` section, but also its `Health` and `Damage`.
The Health and Damage stat types are natively handled in the typical format of a mob's configuration. Other stats that are configured on the mob are: `ATTACK_DAMAGE`, `ATTACK_SPEED`, and `MOVEMENT_SPEED`. | Option |Description |
```yml |----------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Some_Mob: | Type | The [Type](Stats#custom-stat-types) of the stat |
Health: 50 | MinValue | Minimum value for the stat |
Damage: 10 | MaxValue | Max value for the stat |
Stats: | Triggers | What triggers the stat effect. Usually just ATTACK or DAMAGED |

# Modifiers # Modifiers

|ADDITIVE_MULTIPLIER|adds a multiplier the base value of a stat| | `ADDITIVE_MULTIPLIER`| Adds a multiplier the base value of a stat |

Note that stat modifiers can be applied to/by mobs, players, items, enchants, and auras. For example, an item may add to or multiply its wielder's attack speed, while an attack may temporarily apply a COMPOUND MULTIPLIER to half a target's attack speed.

The `ADDITIVE` modifiers are straightforward, they add to the base stat.
The `ADDITIVE_MULTIPLIER`s all pool together (i.e. additive multipliers of 2 and 3 becoming a multiplier of 5, NOT 6) to then multiply the base stat after additives.
Finally, the `COMPOUND_MULTIPLIER`multiplies all the ADDITIVE results afterwards - this is a great place for debuffs to apply, since it would typically be calculated after additive stat additions and multipliers.

The two `ADDITIVE_MULTIPLIER` and `COMPOUND_MULTIPLIER` modifiers can be easy to mix up; however, this example should make it a bit more clear: The two `ADDITIVE_MULTIPLIER` and `COMPOUND_MULTIPLIER` modifiers can be easy to mix up; however, this example should make it a bit more clear:
