Description of the fields

entry

Creature's unique id.

difficulty_entry_x

name	entry	difficulty_entry_1	difficulty_entry_2	difficulty_entry_3
Anomalus	26763	30529	0	0
Sindragosa	36853	38265	38266	38267

Anomalus is a 5 man boss located in The Nexus. You can fight him on two types of difficulties (normal dungeon and heroic dungeon). Depending on the type of difficulty, bosses have different statistics like health and damage. In case of Anomalus information from entry 26763 is used when you fight him at normal difficulty and entry 30529 is used when you fight him at heroic difficulty.

Sindragosa, a raid boss encounter located in the Icecrown Citadel can be fought on 4 different difficulties due to the introduction of heroic raid modes in Patch 3.2 (10man normal/heroic, 25man normal/heroic). Depending on the type of difficulty, she must have different statistics. So if you see her in 10man normal raid she will use information from entry 36853, in a 25man normal raid entry 38265 will be used and so on. This is in stark contrast to raid bosses such as Patchwerk and XT-002 Deconstructor, located in Naxxramas and Ulduar respectively, who only have two different raid modes (10-man 'normal'/25-man 'normal'). Hardmodes within the Ulduar raid do not have their own template, due to game mechanics engaging the harder difficulty during the encounter itself.

Here is a special case with the Alterac Valley battleground. There are 4 level brackets where the NPCs are made easier or harder, depending on your level bracket (Added in WoW patch 3.2.2 when level 80 characters received their own bracket for this battleground and all brackets below level 80 received their own level of difficulty). The same concept applies to the Isle of Conquest battleground, with only two brackets.

If you look at the database you will notice a very characteristic pattern which is summarized in table below:

name	entry	difficulty_entry_1	difficulty_entry_2	difficulty_entry_3
Normal Creature	Different than 0	0	0	0
Dungeon Creature	Normal Dungeon	Heroic Dungeon	0	0
Raid Creature	10man Normal Raid	25man Normal Raid	10man Heroic Raid	25man Heroic Raid
Battleground	51- 59	60-69	70-79	80

KillCredit1

If this is a kill credit template -- one that is a dummy template that is used when more than one creature can count as a kill in a quest, then this is a link to the first entry of the creature that could be killed to give quest credit.

KillCredit2

If this is a kill credit template -- one that is a dummy template that is used when more than one creature can count as a kill in a quest, then this is a link to the second entry of the creature that could be killed to give quest credit. If more than two creatures can be killed and count toward a single objective, an smart or C++ script will be required.

npcflag

So if you want a NPC that is a quest giver(2), a vendor(128) and can repair(4096) you just add specific flags together: 2+128+4096=4226

speed_walk

Controls how fast the creature can walk. For vehicles: increases fly speed.

speed_run

Controls how fast the creature can run. For vehicles: increases ground movement speed.

speed_swim

Controls how fast the creature can swim.

speed_flight

Controls how fast the creature can fly.

detection_range

Controls the range at which creatures detect and see players.

scale

If non-zero, this field defines the size of how the model of the creature appears ingame. If zero, it will use default model size taken from the DBC.

rank

The rank of the creature:

Rank	Name	Default Respawn Time Creature.spawntimesecs	Corpse Decay Time Worldserver.conf (Corpse.Decay)	Total Default Respawn spawntimesecs + Corpse.Decay
0	Normal	5 min	60 sec	6 min
1	Elite	5 min	5 min	10 min
2	Rare Elite	5 min	5 min	10 min
3	Boss	5 min	1 hour	1 hour, 5 min
4	Rare	5 min	5 min	10 min

Note 1: An NPC's rank is mostly visual (which also requires your Cache to be cleared to see changes). Changing this value will not change its health, damage, or loot. However, it will change the respawn time of the creature.

Note 2: Respawn times can be modified in two other places: Creature.spawntimesecs (only for that single GUID of the creature) and in the worldserver.conf file under the "Corpse.Decay" settings (for ALL creatures of the same rank). The default `spawntimesecs` for all spawned creatures is 300 seconds (5 minutes). For example, using the ".npc add" command to spawn a "Normal" NPC will give it a default respawn time of 6 minutes (spawntimesecs + Corpse.Decay time). Also, the creature must decay first before it can respawn. For this reason, the Corpse Decay Time of the creature is also it's minimum respawn time, since setting the creature's Creature.spawntimesecs = 0 will remove the Default Respawn Time. In the example above, setting our Normal NPC's spawntimesecs = 0 will mean the creature's respawn time decreases from 6 minutes to 60 seconds.

Note 3: If you want the creature to show a skull or "??" in the portrait (often with Bosses), set the type_flags to 4.

dmgschool

Creature's melee damage school.

ID	Name
0	SPELL_SCHOOL_NORMAL
1	SPELL_SCHOOL_HOLY
2	SPELL_SCHOOL_FIRE
3	SPELL_SCHOOL_NATURE

BaseAttackTime

This is the base time that determines how long a creature must wait between melee attacks. This time is in milliseconds.

RangeAttackTime

This is the base time that determines how long a creature must wait between ranged attacks. This time is in milliseconds.

BaseVariance

Value to customize the creature's damage output. See DamageModifier.

Non-custom creatures should always leave this at 1.

RangeVariance

Value to customize the creature's damage output. See DamageModifier.

Non-custom creatures should always leave this at 1.

unit_class

This is the creature's class, and it dictates levels of health and mana. Also note that health and mana will change according to exp, HealthModifier, and ManaModifier. Not setting this value will report a minor warning in the "DB_Errors.log".

Value	Name	Power Shown
1	CLASS_WARRIOR	health only (equal to rogue)
2	CLASS_PALADIN	health & mana (more health than mage but less mana)
4	CLASS_ROGUE	Health only (equal to warrior)
8	CLASS_MAGE	health & mana (less health than paladin but more mana)

PetSpellDataId

ID, found in CreatureSpellData.dbc, that displays what spells the pet has in the client.

VehicleId

Entry of vehicle if creature is/has a vehicle entry. This field determines how the player appears on the vehicle, how the vehicle moves, and whether or not the vehicle action bar is shown. For example, a vehicleID of 292 will make the player invisible, prevent the vehicle from strafing left/right (but will allow forwards/backwards), and will show the vehicle action bar spells (which are defined in spell1-8). An npc_spellclick_spells entry must be made for this creature entry in order for this to work.

Minimum money that the creature drops when killed, in copper.

maxgold

Maximum money that the creature drops when killed, in copper.

AIName

This field is overridden by ScriptName field if both are set.

HoverHeight

HealthModifier

Used to modify the base Level/Class health of a creature. This field comes from WDB.

ManaModifier

Used to modify the base Level/Class mana of a creature. This field comes from WDB.

ArmorModifier

Used to modify the base Level/Class armor of a creature.

DamageModifier

Used to modify the Minimum/Maximum damage of a creature.

The formulas to calculate the damage output are:

MINDAMAGE = (((damage_base + (attackpower / 14) * BaseVariance) * DamageModifier) * (BaseAttackTime / 1000))
MAXDAMAGE = ((((damage_base * 1.5) + (attackpower / 14) * BaseVariance) * DamageModifier) * (BaseAttackTime / 1000))

damage_base comes from the creature_classlevelstats table and takes its value either from damage_base, damage_exp1 or damage_exp2 according to the creature's value in exp (0 = base_damage, 1 = damage_exp1, 2 = damage_exp2).

BaseAttackTime is either BaseAttackTime or RangeAttackTime depending on the type of attack.

attackpower is either attackpower or rangedattackpower depending on the type of attack.

BaseVariance is either BaseVariance or RangeVariance depending on the type of attack.

ScriptName

The name of the script that this creature uses, if any. This ties a script from a scripting engine to this creature.

VerifiedBuild

This field was used to determine whether a template has been verified from WDB files.

If value is 0 then it has not been parsed yet.

If value is above 0 then it has been parsed with WDB files from that specific client build.

If value is -1 then it is just a place holder until proper data are found on WDBs.

If value is -Client Build then it was parsed with WDB files from that specific client build and manually edited later for some special necessity.
