As of GU52, every spell must be re-collected from Live
How you can help is to log in your character running the EQ2PacketCollector.exe, and simply mouse-over and examine all the icons on your spell book - starting with Abilities, Spells, Combat Arts, and Tradeskills pages. Lots of this data will be redundant, but in this case it's better to have too much than too little. Each class has their own unique abilities, but some also share common abilities. By overly collecting this data, we can match up those classes that use the same ability and reduce reduncancies in our database.While the Traits, Traditions and Achievements are a long way off in terms of server functionality, we would benefit by having this data up front as long as we're collecting spell info as well. In this, open your characters "L" page (achievements), and again mouse-over each of the icons on:
Character Development tab:
- {Race} Innate Abilities
Racial Traditions
(I think you can skip the Character Traits, since I think they are the same for all characters)
{Class} Training
Mouse-over each one of the achievement circles.
{Class} Achievements tab:
Mouse-over each one of the achievement circles.
- As long as you can see the tooltip text on your client screen, the collector will have the data in the EQ2PacketLog.log file. Though it is best if you mouse-over AND Examine the spells details
Please accurately name the log to something like {race}-{class}-spells.log. Once you have your collection(s) done, PM me and I'll show you how you can submit your logs for processing.
Example naming:
darkelf-wizard-spells.log or
def-wiz-spells.log etc.
As always, your help in this is greatly appreciated. Please post a followup reply here with the race/class you have completed, so others know what not to collect again. I'll go first.
Edited: JA - changed some of the details for post GU52 spells
