Charmed mobs and the pet/group window and buffs

[EvoZak]

Maybe some industrious soul could run WireShark in a sandboxed server with two clients and then charm something. Might be an easy way to find the opcode's value. Then again I have no idea how much data this would mean you have to sift through but it does seem possible.

Was thinking a bit more about the respawn idea.

One thing that needs to be preserved through charming and breaking is the mobs items. I sometimes give my pet nice weapons off other mobs to use and then kill my pet later to reclaim the weapons.

Also, I could see the respawning being used to get a named mob to repop weilding something desirable. An exploit that Im sure most would servers would like to prevent.

The servers dont just automatically send the packets. They have to be coded to, and that's the problem.

Actually I meant you could sniff the packet coming from the client. Still, I don't know how far that would get you. Obviously if the problem is the opcode sent back down to the client, not very.

And great work on finding the OpCode!
