Stabber
Obsolete: This article refers to an aspect of the game which has been removed. It is retained for historical reference only.
Monsters with the Stabber flag will try to maintain their distance (using ranged attacks) until such a time as their target is incapacitated, at which time they switch to melee to attack their target. Stabbers without a means of ranged attack will assume normal monster behavior. These monsters also bypass half the target's AC on stabs.
In past versions, spriggan enchanters and spriggan assassins had this flag.
