=== Get a Single or Nested Stat (`get_npc_var`) ===
This is the primary function for retrieving NPC data. It can get a simple top-level stat or traverse deeply into nested objects and arrays (up to 6 levels deep via the template).

'''Syntax'''
<code><nowiki>{{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|NPC Name|Key 1|Key 2|...|Rounding}}</nowiki></code>

'''Parameters'''
* '''NPC Name:''' The internal key for the NPC (e.g., `npc_boss_tier2`, `trooper_normal`).
* '''Key 1, Key 2, ...:''' The path to the stat you want.
** For a simple stat, this is one key (e.g., `MaxHealth`).
** For nested data, provide each key in order (e.g., `RebirthModifier`, `RespawnDelay`).
** For arrays (lists), use the position number as a key (e.g., `IntrinsicModifiers`, `1`, `BULLET_ARMOR_DAMAGE_RESIST`).
* '''Rounding:''' (Optional) A number to round the result to that many significant figures. This should always be the last parameter.

'''Examples'''
* To get the max health of a Normal Trooper:
** '''Code:''' <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|trooper_normal|MaxHealth}}</nowiki></code>
** '''Result:''' {{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|trooper_normal|MaxHealth}}

* To get the name of a Walker's second ability (nested in BoundAbilities):
** '''Code:''' <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|npc_boss_tier2|BoundAbilities|ESlot_Signature_2|Name}}</nowiki></code>
** '''Result:''' {{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|npc_boss_tier2|BoundAbilities|ESlot_Signature_2|Name}}

* To get a value from a list of modifiers (nested array):
** '''Code:''' <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|npc_boss_tier2|IntrinsicModifiers|1|BULLET_ARMOR_DAMAGE_RESIST}}</nowiki></code>
** '''Result:''' {{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|npc_boss_tier2|IntrinsicModifiers|1|BULLET_ARMOR_DAMAGE_RESIST}}

* If a path is incorrect, an error message will show the full path attempted:
** '''Code:''' <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:NpcData|get_npc_var|trooper_normal|InvalidKey|Stat}}</nowiki></code>
** '''Result:''' <span class="error">Error: Key "InvalidKey" not found in path "trooper_normal".</span>
