 * Saucepan will also give you a food effect even if you currently do not have a food effect. This food effect can be removed by Colibri or similiar.


 * All mobs use specials corresponding with their type.


 * Yagudo, Orc, Goblin, and Quadav share hate, whoever has hate they will attack. If anyone pulls hate off the tank all the mobs will attack whoever pulls the hate.


 * Mobs have low damage and defense; damage reduction will help greatly.
 * These mobs are all immune to black magic Sleep (even with the use of Elemental Seal)
 * Light-based sleep works but may resist and has short duration.
