Question about monster attacks

Ok I am trying hard to figure this out exacly how mobs work in the mobs.dbo

there are alot of attack data so I hope someone I figure this out already.

AttackType
AttackTime
AttackRange
Attack
AttackPlus
AttackSpecial
AttackOk

at this point I know attack time is the frequency of the attacks. Attack is the damage of the attacks. Attackplus I think is the diceroll. AttackOk I think is weather the attack is enabled or disabled. AttackRange kinda speaks for itself.

that leaves these AttackType and AttackSpecial. Attacktype 0 Seems to be normal melee attacks. But it even seems like some attacktypes have negative attacks and thats kinda were it gets wierd. Attack Special I have no idea at all what is.

anyone figured this out?

This is something that i asked EC some time ago because he kind of mastered the skills; the AttackType would be, as i understand, like an AttackID (yeah the mobskills are a little bit weird) and AttackPlus would be some sort of an additional damage or effect from that specific attack while the attackspecial seems to be like, giving an example, Blizabeth's AoE which deals a lot of damage, which is used by this mob just when someone uses an AoE on it.

Again i'm still trying to understand the mobskills too, so i might be mistaken.

yeah its very complicated. Seems like theres more to it though. I thought attackok was 1 or 0 (on or off) but I see mobs that has 3 in that slot which seems to make it more complicated than that. I am trying to make the attacks of the mobs in dimensionscrack. I havent been able to find them anywhere so trying to mix up attacks from current mobs but this is getting difficult too because I dont know what they mean. Do you know anywhere were I can find the attacks of these mobs? would save several days of work for me lol
