This is about League of Legends Monsters. For other uses of Monster, see Monster (disambiguation)

Monsters are neutral units in League of Legends. Unlike minions, monsters do not fight for either team, and will only do so if provoked (the exception of this being the Rift Scuttler, which simply runs away when attacked).

Gameplay

Monster behavior & Patience

Monsters reside in the jungle, and will not move from their designated camp until attacked, at which point they become aggressive (are "aggroed"). When aggroed, the monster will acquire the nearest champion, regardless of vision, and then attempt to attack them back. Monsters' distance to their target considers walking travel distance (pathing distance), not straight line distance.

Monsters have a maximum radius they can move before they start to lose their patience. This distance is called leash range and is indicated by a flowing circle around the camp's location that appears for each player when they initiate combat with that monster (with the exception of Baron Nashor, who is stationary). Leash range varies per camp. If the monster is unable to find their acquired target (e.g. the champion enters stealth) or moves outside of its leash range, its patience will start to deplete. Patience depletes faster the farther away the monster is from its maximum leash range and/or the less it is attacked while being there. Non-epic monsters' patience additionally drops when they change targets. They may change their target up to 6 times (without accounting for patience loss while outside leash range) before their patience fully depletes.

When a monster's patience reaches zero, it will enter a state of soft reset for 6 seconds. While in this state, the monster will begin walking back toward its neutral position, healing for 6% of its maximum health every second and ignoring calls for aggression from its attackers until it has returned inside its leash range. Attacking a monster while it is within its leash range ends this soft reset prematurely to restore some of its patience and prevent it from losing any further patience for 1.5 seconds.

When the soft reset grace period ends, the monster will enter a state of hard reset instead, again ignoring all attackers, but now healing at a much faster rate and running back to its neutral position more rapidly. Once the monsters have returned to the camp's neutral position, they will recover their patience after 2 seconds of their arrival and over 2 seconds.

Notes

Small monsters match the patience of their respective large monster as long as it is alive and within 700 units.
Vision of a champion applies to the entire camp of monsters not only e.g. the largest monster in the camp.
When the large monster of a camp dies, all other smaller monsters in their camp will be marked for death for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds of not being in combat with a champion, the marked monsters will die.
Monsters can have different range types.
- The following monsters are melee:
  - Atakhan
  - Ancient Krug, Krugs, and Mini Krugs
  - Blue Sentinel
  - Greater Murk Wolf and Murk Wolves
  - Raptor
  - Red Brambleback
  - Rift Herald
  - Voidmite
- The following monsters are ranged:
  - Baron Nashor
  - Crimson Raptor
  - Dragons ( )
  - Gromp
  - Rift Scuttler (does not attack when provoked, but is technically ranged)
  - Voidgrub

Camp respawn

After a camp has been completely cleared, it will remain empty for an amount of time specific to that camp (its "respawn time"), then all of the monsters will reappear. A camp's respawn timer can be viewed in the scoreboard. An accurate timer can only be given to the ally team if the ally team had vision of the camp when it was cleared; however, gaining vision of the camp's location at any point may still provide an accurate timer on the minimap when the camp is close to spawning (a greyed out timer means 60 seconds remaining, a filled one means 10 seconds remaining until respawn). This does not apply to epic monster camps, which will always provide an accurate timer and be announced to both teams when cleared.

When a non-epic monster camp is cleared outside of vision, it is not possible to know that an enemy has recently been at that location.

A monster camp will not respawn until all of the monsters in the camp have died. For example, if the Greater Murk Wolf has been slain, but at least one of its two Murk Wolf companions has not, the camp's respawn timer will not start until the last Wolf has been slain. The game will automatically kill any remaining lesser monsters in a camp whose large monster has been killed, after 10 seconds of them returning to a neutral state. This allows them to respawn automatically as well, albeit with this important delay.

Monster Rewards

As a general rule, killing a monster rewards its killer with gold and experience.

Killing a large monster without a jungle item ( Gustwalker Hatchling, Mosstomper Seedling, or Scorchclaw Pup) reduces its bounty by 15 and its experience by 15, modified to 12 when killing the Ancient Krug.

Additionally, certain large monsters offer greater rewards when killed, such as an individual buff, a team buff, or a global gold and/or experience reward.

The Crest of Insight and Crest of Cinders buffs are gained respectively from the Blue Sentinel and the Red Brambleback, and may be transferred to another champion. This occurs when a champion kills someone holding a crest, causing the crest to be transferred to the killer and resetting the buffs duration. Either buff disappears entirely if the champion holding the crest is executed by a minion, monster, or tower, or when the crest simply wear offs on its own after a few minutes.
- When the map transforms into the Elemental Rift, the Blue Sentinel and the Red Brambleback become Draconic, gaining this form if alive and respawning in it each time. Killing them in this form leaves behind a buff wisp at the camp's location for 60 seconds. The wisp can be picked up by an allied champion moving near it, granting them the buff. If the killer did not have Smite, the wisp can only be picked up by a champion that does so.
- Once the Baron Nashor spawns at 25:00, the Blue Sentinel and the Red Brambleback become permanently corrupted by the Void if they are not Draconic, transforming into a Voidborn with 30% increased health. Killing them in this form grants you and all your allied champions, if alive, the buff. Any remaining Draconic Blue Sentinel or Red Brambleback that are slain respawn as Voidborn instead.
The Glimpse of the Void buff is granted to the team that has taken down the Rift Herald in the baron pit after they pick up her dropped Eye of the Herald. This buff allows the holder to summon an allied Rift Herald Mercenary, which will then march down the nearest lane and push it until it dies.
The stacking Dragon Slayer buffs acquired for slaying the Dragon are applied to all team members, whether living or dead, and last indefinitely. The exception to this is the Aspect of the Dragon from the Elder Dragon, which is only granted to living teammates and lasts for a few minutes and is lost upon death.
The Touch of the Void buff is granted to all teammates when a Voidgrub is slain. The buff stacks for each grub killed.
- At 4 or more stacks of this buff, it also grants the Hunger of the Void.
The Hand of Baron buff is only granted to living teammates when Baron Nashor is killed. The buff lasts for a few minutes and is lost upon death.

Monsters spawn at level 1 when spawning for the first time, and their level is re-calculated only when they respawn. These exclude epic monsters, which start the game at higher levels and upgrade automatically per game time, akin to minions.

Monster experience reward

While owning a jungle item ( Gustwalker Hatchling, Mosstomper Seedling, or Scorchclaw Pup), gain 80 bonus experience from killing large monsters. Your first monster kill grants 150 bonus experience.

Lore

Summoner's Rift

Historically, the forest where the Rift resides was the site of several battles between the Protectorate (Stag crest) and Magelords (Owl crest) summoners, two sides who sought out to use the natural magical energy of the area for their personal use.

The large amount of concentrated magic has mutated the local wildlife. From giant frogs, Giant Birds to Two-headed Wolves it has also attracted the attention of powerful Dragons who currently reside in one of the battle torn ruins. Sentinels, Bramblebacks and Krugs are creatures made from local flora and earth infused to construct a magical being. The Rift's unstable magic has inadvertently cause the reemergence of Baron Nashor, a large Serpent/Worm largely believed to be dead for centuries. It has his corruption affecting the land around him.

Twisted Treeline

After the fall of the Shadow Isles, the islands inhabitants were changed by the Black Mist. Numerous individuals and creatures now serve the Harrowing's will.

Vilemaw is an ancient spider of unknown origin currently residing in the cursed forest. The "Cult of the Spider" has most of its followers located in Noxus and Demacia. Elise serves as its High Priestess, traveling to and from between the two nations and the Shadow Isles, bringing her followers to live with the Spider God, Vilemaw, for eternity, or so they believe.

Bilgewater

Various monsters from across Runeterra, such as the Ironbacks, Ocklepods, Plundercrabs, and Razorfins are shipped through the black market and used for monster brawls.

Trivia

The icon for the Patience mechanic is reused from the Season Three (2013) mastery Frenzy.

Patch History

V25.S1.1

New epic monster: Voracious Atakhan / Ruinous Atakhan.

V14.1

New epic monster: Voidgrub.
New lesser monster: Voidmite.

V12.23

Bug Fix: Monsters are now properly aggroed by champion summoned units such as Elise's Spiders and Shaco's Boxes.
Leash range centers have been offset from camp spawn location in order to give more space for champions to move and kite.

V12.22

While a monster is aggroed, their leash range will be briefly highlighted and persist around the camp until they exit combat and fully reset. This is the distance outside of which their patience starts to diminish.
New Effect: When a monster loses all of its patience, it will soft reset for 6 seconds instead of fully resetting its patience. While in the process of soft resetting, the monster will path towards the center of its camp, heal for 6% of its maximum health every second, and ignore attackers outside of its leash range.
- Attacking a monster while it is within its leash range ends this soft reset prematurely to restore some of its patience and prevents it from being lost for 1.5 seconds.
- If the soft reset ends from after 6 seconds, the monster will hard reset and in the process will ignore all attackers, rapidly heal, and path to its original position.
  - Monsters move slow while soft resetting and much more faster while hard resetting.
New Effect: Monsters now regenerate patience that they have lost after 2 seconds of being back within their leash range.
New Effect: Small monsters now match the patience of their respective large monster as long as it is alive and within 700 units.
New Effect - Marked For Death: When the large monster of each non-epic camp dies, all other smaller monsters in their camp will be marked for death for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds of being out of combat with a champion, the marked monsters will die.
New Effect: Killing large monsters rewards an additional 15 and 15 when owning a jungle item.

V5.20

Monsters now respond to aggression from players as long as they've reached their home camp. (Previously, you had to wait for them to be above 90% health).
Monsters will get a temporary increase to their regeneration rate if they lose all their patience and retreat back to camp.

V5.19

Jungle monsters now have a Patience characteristic. Monsters no longer reset their aggression based on distance or positioning - Instead, once the monster's Patience is reduced to zero, the monster will reset and return to their original position. During this reset, they rapidly regenerate health and do not respond to further aggression.
- Monsters lose Patience under the following conditions:
  - When a monster is in an aggressive state but can't find any targets to attack (ex. its target died or became untargetable)
  - When a monster's target is too far away from the monster's initial spawn location or the monster is VERY far away from its initial spawn location
  - When the monster is forced to switch targets
- Large monsters display their Patience in a meter above their heads.
- Once a monster has recovered to 90% health, they regain all of their Patience.
- Abilities that pull or displace monsters no longer completely reset the monster's aggro if they already had a previous target.
