=Statistics=
Some skeleton archers drop from a higher Treasure Class when killed by ranged weapons. The TC is listed in (#) below. * The TC/Rune drops listed are the highest [[Treasure Class]]/[[Rune Group]] a normal monster of that type can drop.** Champions and Bosses can sometimes drop from the next higher TC.** The max TC/Rune possible depends on which level a monster spawns in, and can vary slightly from the listed values (monsters that spawn in later levels can drop higher level items). See the item [[calculators]] to ascertain precisely what a monster from a given area can drop. {| width="100%" style="text-align:center"

* Regen Rate tells what % of a monster's hit points are recovered per second. Standard is 1.2/sec.
* Blocking tells what % of successful, blockable attacks will not damage the monster. Monsters need not carry a shield to block.
* Drain Effectiveness tells what % of a character's mana and life steal apply to that monster. 100 is all, 0 is none.
* Chill Effectiveness tells what % of a character's cold length applies to the monster. 100 is all, 0 is no freeze/chill at all.
