Pre-GU52 Spells Data

Post by John Adams » Wed Jul 29, 2009 4:47 pm

Zcoretri (and friends),

Would you say the data collected for spells before Game Update 52 is still viable, or should I trash it? Not the stuff we have set up in the EQ2DB, but I am talking about Raw Data from packet collects.

I realize that likely only names changed, but unless we have a 1:1 cross-reference of these, I doubt anyone wants to rename these spells by hand. It's likely we will re-collect many class spells/abilities in the months to come, so you tell me... skip the old data, or keep it in case we can simply rename things?

Note: Keep in mind 95% of our current "spells" are name-only anyway - that is, no specific details yet. So it might no be a bad thing to drop the old data anyway.

Let me know your thoughts.

John,

There were some spell modifications as well. As a necor on live I can tell you that the conjy Shard of Essence and the necro Rotting Hearts lines were consolidated to one spell each. All the pet graphics were changed. While i think Necros and Conjys were the exception, it is definately possible that other things changed as well.
