Base M
The estimated average amount of damage this ability will deal to a target with 128 Defense or Magic def when used by this monster (3/4 of base damage); actual damage will vary considerably based on the target's actual Defense or Magic def and other factors, but this is a good measure of the relative danger of this ability; a dagger (†) indicates that the ability deals set damage or otherwise ignores Defense and Magic def; numbers in italics are based on factors that will change during combat and should be considered very rough estimates; healing, MP restoration, HP drain, and MP drain or damage are indicated by text color

Dexterity
Luck Elemental Vulnerability Status Immunity EXP AP Gil
The rate of Steal success per item by a character of equal level to the monster; these rates will change based on the level difference between the Stealing character and the monster; hover over a percentage to see the base rate (which is based on being 10 levels higher than the monster); this rate is multiplied by 80%±2% per level difference; only one item can be stolen, so an increase in level may in some cases decrease the effective Steal rate of items later in the list
Steal
A monster will never drop an item if an item was Stolen from it during the battle; only monsters present in the final battle of a multi-battle sequence may drop items
