Mobs

Mobs are in-game computer-controlled entities, technically creatures including Monsters and Animals. Mob is short for "mobile". It is a term that is used in many other games, not only in Don't Starve.

Being as a lot of the Mobs have their own unique behaviors, movements, attacks, drops, and uses, it is important for a player to know the traits of each and every Mob in order to survive, as the Mobs are also the primary danger to the players, being the most common source of Health loss due to their attacks.

Many mobs can be put to sleep.

Classification

Hostile - unconditionally aggressive towards player

mobs turn aggressive towards the player as soon as the player is at a certain distance from them ("aggro" range) (e.g. Spiders and Hounds)

Neutral - conditionally friendly/aggressive

mobs turn aggressive towards the player when the player provokes them due to a certain action, like attacking them or one of their own kinds (e.g. Bunnymen and Pigs)

Passive - unconditionally friendly towards player

mobs will never attack the player, even if attacked or pursued (e.g. Rabbits and Birds)

Exceptions

• for Webber, Spiders will be neutral, but Bunnymen, Pigs and Catcoons will be hostile towards him.

Characteristics

Health (HP)

Each hit by the player decreases a mob's health by:

weapon damage * character damage multiplier

The amount of hits required to kill a mob is:

mob health / player's damage

Damage (DMG)

Each hit to the player deals:

mob damage / player's armor

Attack Period (AP)

The time in seconds between each hit/attack.

Insanity Aura (IA)

Sanity gained/lost per minute when near mobs.

Walk Speed (WS)

Speed of mobs when neither aggressive (hostile and neutral mobs) nor running from the player (passive mobs)

Run Speed (RS)

Speed of hostile and neutral mobs when aggressive towards the player and speed of passive mobs when running from mobs/player. The default Run Speed of most characters is 6

Mob Interactions

Mob Chart

This chart details the outcome of hostility if one mob is to meet another, the left vertical side of the column are the "spotters", and the straight horizontal side are the "spotted". When a Spotter meets a Spotted, the interactions are detailed. Special thanks to Spazmatic on the Don't Starve Forums for providing the graph.
