They are used with two attributes (available on ANY entity-targeter):
| Attribute | Aliases | Description | Default |
|-----------|-----------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|---------|
| target | | The entity types to target | |

> You can set the default target filters in MythicMobs/config/config-skills.yml
Possible filters include:
- self
- animals *(non-hostile mobs)*
- armorstands/armor_stands
- creative *(ignored by default)*
- creatures *(any type of sentient entity)*
- flyingmobs
- marker
- monsters *(hostile mobs)*
- NPCs *(Citizens NPCs, ignored by default)*
- players
- samefaction *(mobs marked with the same faction type)*
- spectator *(ignored by default)*
- vanilla
- villager
- watermobs
- owner
- More coming later...
You can also turn off specific filters by just adding the option
**targetXXXXX** replacing XXXXX with the filter name, e.g.
**targetPlayers=false** or **targetcreative=true**
Note: As of MM 4.15 or MM 5.0, you can set the default target filters in MythicMobs/config.yml

### Specific Filters
You can also specifically set whether to target a specific type of entity or not by using the attributes below. The effects of these attributes override the effects of the more generic target/ignore attributes for the specific entity type the attribute handles

|-----------|-----------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|---------|
| targetself| | Whether to target the caster of the mechanic | |
| targetplayers| | Whether to target players | |
| targetcreative| | Whether to target players in creative mode | |
| targetspectator| | Whether to target players in spectator mode | |
| targetarmorstands| | Whether to target armor stands | |
| targetmarkers| | Whether to target markers | |
| targetnpcs| | Whether to target Citizens NPCs | |
| targetanimals| | Whether to target animals | |
| targetcreatures| | Whether to target creatures | |
| targetsamefaction| | Whether to target entities of the same faction | |
| targetowner| | Whether to target the caster's owner | |
| targetvanilla| targetnonmythic | Whether to target non-Mythic entities | |
| targetvillagers| | Whether to target villagers | |
```yaml
- damage{a=20} @EntitiesInRadius{r=10;targetplayers=true;targetsamefaction=true;targetowner=false}
```
> Use this to explicitly target players and entities in the same faction alongside any other valid target there may be, while also not targeting the owner of the caster
## Target Limits
All entity and location targeters also support target limits (as of v5.0.4). With this you can limit how many entities/locations are targeted, including the order in which they are selected.
This is done with the options:
This is done with the attributes:
- limit=#
- sort=X
| Attribute | Aliases | Description | Default |

| sort | sortby | How to sort the targeted entities/locations | |
| limit | | The limit to the targeted entities/locations after the sort is applied| |
Lets say you want your ability to only target the 2 nearest players within 30 blocks. To do this, you'd simply set the limit 2 to and sort by nearest:
