well, there are people like me, who have never used a sniffer (l2phx included)...
and the "list of things to do" is ABSOLUTELY NECASSARY!!!
You could also change the list, removing/marking the done/notdone features (so that others would know what has been done and skip it), we could also collect people from this forum and go do some instances/quests together in a party, that way we could make sure we get what we want/need.
Because currently nobody knows what devs are doing (IF doing at all), and surely there are many people playing on PTS now checking things out, collecting info, and many of them are doing the same (new quests for example).

Everyone collect:
- how quests works, like the quest in beast farm, which is depend on how much over-hit you make(probably it has a few different ending), and what reward you get for what result.
- collect data on -> your stats vs how much dmg you make, how much dmg the mobs do on you, even if we make an initial stats for new mobs later we can change them according everyone's test!

Just a suggestion - check all skill enchant routes while you have the chance (which are missing, maybe some stats are wrong etc.). I'm checking the spellhowler.
Of course, if there are some missing, check their effects and record them as well as you can. If you can, try making them yourself, if not, post all available significant info on that skill/skills.
It looks like you can have only 1 lv85 char on account, so dunno if i'll check others.

So devs will really be doing closed development now? No TODO lists, no milestones, nothing? That's not how community works...

How to use a sniffer.
  • Turn it on.
  • Log into server
  • Play around with the NEW content
  • Be sure to hit everyhing and do everything you could around
  • SAVE your sniffer logs.

We will post later a mail where you can send those logs.

I've been trying the sniffers in PTS. L2ph and Hlapex are not yet compatible with Freya, so we have a problem. Another sniffer?

you don't get it, do you? What if what i've done is already implemented by devs? That's what TODO's are needed for...
And +1 to Raikkon35's last post.

New mobs(EP mobs also) stats are hard to get, because mobs have weakness/resists so we need from every type of char statistics > what char do what dmg, how much dmg the mob do back. These information is needed from everyone!

but the main question hasn't been answered yet - what program to use to do it??? Once we get that, the following should be fairly easy, but until then...
Also, are replays of any value? I remember reading that replays save some packets in them, has anyone cracked that?
