Note: If set to 3 or 7, additional settings can be set in [BossMonsterparamEx].

Note 2: If you do not, the boss will have only 1 red bar with no skills to use.

Note 3: Unfortunately no values were found here to dictate Shadow Monsters themselves.

WalkSpeed: Basic movement speed to set.

RunSpeed: Running speed to set while in combat or aggro'd.

MaxStay: Maximum amount of duration or monsters that will try to surround a target.

MinStay: Minimum amount of duration or monsters that will try to surround a target.

Note: Not sure what units of measurement are used... Maybe seconds? Note 2: Even with the Min/Max values, results won't reflect correctly due to spacing.

AI Parameters

The following rows mentioning "ai" behavior is a whole guess for me. "All" also includes shadow monsters.

Note: These feel like leftover data from the early days. Most of this can be ignored, except for the last one. (aiViewRange)
