Monster mechanic

Hi a few inquiries i had like to comment on seeing as i couldn’t find any already spoken of.

when attacking a monster an Icon surrounding it’s pic appears
with a logo, so far i have noticed 2 types
don’t believe there’s a 3rd one but i didn’t pay enough attention.
What do they mean ? - 1 is 2 tridents Crossing each other, the other i forgot-

How do monster Defense work ?
the Concept of cloth, leather, and Plate Only work on players?
if that so, does that mean that weapons with an enhance damage
on such properties are useless On monsters?

example: Catacombs blade - ? -

i saw damage mechanics but i didn’t find any implication on monster’s defense with the spoken inquiries here.
and how can i tell which monster wears plate/leather/cloth type ?

Comments appreciated - Thanks.

monsters are a type -beast, mutant, etc; wear one of the armour types, including ghost armour; and have a size, which determines some bonus’ and how much aoe defence they generally have. so yes, your weapons will give you a bonus.
