Silver vulnerability of monsters

No relevant info on the effectivity of silver ammunition against monsters up to now. Against deep down menaces like Tentacled monstrosity or Orb of fire whose single vulnerability is silver, that should be of interest. Anyone out there able to provide code-based numbers to silver vulnerability of monsters? (I myself don't know where in "git" to look for it.) -- Bwijn 11:28, 7 April 2013 (CEST)

There are some calculations on the Silver page. Is this what you are looking for?
Also I guess we should include a part in the monster section of this page about Silver vulnerable monsters. --Flun 20:11, 7 April 2013 (CEST)
