Often this is found on items, where they grant skills, such as The Whispering Ice The Whispering Ice The modifier does not include values for the skill other then the level as they're defined by the skill itself. If a skill is specified, the specified skill (at the specified level) will be granted to the relevant entity. If a buff is specified, Modifiers also include a value for the buff, but unlike for Stats it is not randomized and fixed. The values of stats include a minimum and maximum value, which is most commonly used on items - the actual value of the stat in the cases where minimum and maximum are not the same will be randomized within with equal chances, so for example a Stat with a minimum value of 1 and a maximum value of 3, can either be 1, 2 or 3 at 1/3 chance for each value. (for example, shaper and elder get a corresponding tag)

In particular area and monster effects may be hidden from the player. On the wiki, some of these effects have a custom text specific to the wiki and are noted with (HIDDEN) in the description. Since not all statistics have a visible text, it is possible that some effects are granted by the modifier but are not visible to the player. Modifiers are specific to items, monsters, strongboxes or areas.

A modifier applies statistics, a buff or grants a skill to an entity.
