Okay, let's say this: I personally don't see myself doing client edits because they are hard to distribute and also I just like to stick to serverside uhh *everything*. Is there any point for me to try REing the WoW client? Is there still a treasure trove of blizzard secrets I could discover andexploit from the server, or not really?

So if you for example want to send packets, you can abuse the behavior in the client

If something doesn't work when you send a BG update packet, you could inspect the packet handler to understand the behavior

For example the gif I sent you, was doing pretty much what I just described

Understanding the handlers and what they will do once the packet is sent

But if you have absolutely no use for client edits then I would say it is not worth the effort to learn.
