Hey, just thought I'd chime in re: data mining.

I wouldn't really consider this to be data mining, at least not in a way that's super-duper hush-hush, harmful, what have you.

Amusingly, all calculations are done server-side, so sending the stats along is actually kind of vestigal; it may not be sent along in the future, but that wouldn't be because this is "cheating," moreso because the client doesn't actually require those numbers. Not unless we make an ability that reveals enemy stats (which is a possibility!)

So, no sweat! Carry on!

@thrage
Yay thats nice to know.

Also because I'm lazy someone else gave me some data to update the table with (Cyradis4 to be specific), so a few (maybe all) of the missing monsters are there now.

@lemondrop - I think the data might no longer be sent as Thrage mentioned in September, cause I tried to look at the server communications recently and didn't find anything. Course, I could've been doing something wrong, but I was getting stuff for other actions and just nothing but images from the Coliseum, so I'm not sure. If you can still see the data on your end, I'm definitely doing something wrong. Anyway...

Few monsters on the chart need updating, and I've gotten some data for them the old-fashioned way (observation and extrapolation based on existing data) but I couldn't get any of the AGI, QCK, or offensive stat that they didn't have an ability for (STR or INT). Some monsters have both STR and INT skills, but many do not. :(

Anyway, here's some data for missing monsters that I've gotten so far... Don't know level, so can't tell VIT, just health.

Opheodrys Serthis (Stats were changed recently): INT 22, DEF 16, MND 21, Health 670

Carmine Serthis (Stats were changed recently): Health 720

Venerable Shalebuck (Arcane; new monster): STR 34, DEF 35, MND 34, Health somewhere between 1260 and 1300 (inclusive)

Shalebuck (Water; new monster): DEF 40, MND 40, Health somewhere around 1190 or slightly greater

@Sylvandyr
Yea I can still see the data fine. You have to open the dev console of chrome before you load the page to capture the websocket being created then refresh it by clicking it until it sends the data.

I'll get around to updating it here soon lol.

@lemondrop - Thanks for the explanation. As far as I know, four monsters need updating in your table: Carmine Serthis, Opheodrys Serthis, Shalebuck, Venerable Shalebuck. Here's the Carmine Serthis/Opheodrys Serthis stuff. I've highlighted the changes in bold.

I've heard you already got the Shalebuck/Venerable Shalebuck data from Cyradis4, who was kind enough to share it with me. I'm gonna list it here anyway just to have an easy quick reference in the thread while the table's being updated.

Is anyone planning on making an update for the new Mire area?

@fishspeakers - Ask and you shall receive ;)

@lemondrop - Here's the data for The Mire.

@Culex - Is your friend taking into account DEF and MND damage reduction and watching buffs and debuffs carefully? Salve Kamaitachi have Contuse... or if your friend is using Rally/Concentration to buff damage and it falls off mid-battle, those factors would also change the damage output.

[EDIT]: Okay, I just ran through every monster in The Mire again. All of the stats are still exactly the same. I also grind through The Mire a lot and the numbers match what I'm seeing.

@Ara @twitchy - Could lemondrop's topic also be moved to guides, please? :)
