RotMG Sniffer
A free, open-source companion app for Realm of the Mad God on Windows. It logs your shinies to
the Shiny Leaderboard the moment you equip them while in the Nexus, and its optional
DPS Meter shows everyone's damage on the boss you're fighting.
Included
Automatic shiny logging
Equip a shiny in the Nexus and the sniffer asks the site to run Check for Gear for you, so it's logged
without opening the website. It also adds collection items (unique drops, STs, reskins) you haven't verified yet.
- Points still only come from what your public RealmEye profile shows, exactly like pressing the button yourself.
- See your rank, points and everything logged this session in the sniffer's window.
- Always On Top and Small View, so it can sit next to the game.
Optional module · Beta
Boss DPS meter
Install the DPS Meter from the sniffer's Modules button for a live RotMG DPS meter: every player
fighting your quest boss, ranked from highest DPS to lowest, with total damage and share of the fight.
- Sync mode: Dare I say makes this sniffer the MOST accurate RotMG sniffer that is currently available.
Lots of players know that their client receives data from the server about how much damage someone else did,
but the question is how much damage does the user do. Sync mode resolves this issue by allowing 2 players who
are in the same dungeon and have sync mode enabled on the DPS meter page to send their packets to each other
(via HTTPS through rotmgcollectionlog.org), live, while the DPS meter is calculating. This allows the DPS meter
to calculate as if it had received all damage data from the RotMG server!
- Self-learning user damage estimates: Players with the DPS Meter module installed can consent to have
their weapon damage data sent to the server to help improve how user damage is calculated for a specific
weapon. This changes based on enchants, gear, stats and buffs, so the more data that is collected, the more
accurate this will get over time. The goal is for the self-learning estimate to someday be as good as Sync mode.
Read-only and open source
The sniffer only reads copies of the game traffic your PC already receives. It never sends anything to the game,
never changes any traffic and never touches the game client. Your sniffer key can only request gear checks for your
account. All the code is public:

FAQ
What is a RotMG sniffer?
A program that reads Realm of the Mad God's network traffic to monitor gear switches for tracking shinies. The optional
DPS module reads incoming and outgoing packets to determine damage dealt by the player and other players.
Do I need it to use the shiny leaderboard?
No. You can always press Check for Gear yourself on the leaderboard. The sniffer just does it for you.
Does it work with a VPN?
Usually with Npcap installed. The sniffer tells you if the VPN is blocking it and how to fix it.
