What can be changed in modification and what cant be?

[Valis]

Hello everyone,

I was wondering in terms of rAthena  what exactly can be changed and where would I look to start modifying.

I have some background in C/C++/C# and trying to figure out what needs to be modified from SRC or what can just be edited from the existing text configs.

I'm trying to figure out if the following features are doable within reasonable means, i don't wanna go in and start hard coding a bunch of stuff that may already have existing methods. 

> Removing job requirements on equipment 

> Tweaking Novice EXP (Found existing exp table in text format so I'm assuming i can modify that)

>  Changing enemies stats, behavior and existing mobs like Guardians for WOE becoming something else or EMP having less or more health and hit req.

 

Basically I want to know what custom content is possible and what requires a lot more depth, 

 

Thank you very much, and nice to meet all of you.

 

Edit:  OH yeah, what IDE do people use for the scripting language on here?  I have been just using Notepad++

Equipment requirements can be changed in the database.

Mob stats and behavior can be changed in the database.

I would suggest to read the doc folder as well as the wiki (both can be found on GitHub)

As for the IDE -> VIM
