What the Mobs data tells us
With no clean category to split 88 Mobs, rank them by Health — it is the number that most often decides a pick, and the table above is already sorted by it. Note: 55 of the 88 entries have no written description in the source data — for those you are reading stats only, so trust the numbers, not assumptions.
By the numbers, the standouts are Bearger/DST with the highest Health (6000). They set the ceiling for the whole Mobs set.
