Is it possible to use Hex Editor on itemcache.wdb to make an item not bind on pickup?

WDB files are just cache so the client doesn't need to query the server for the item information every time you click on it. The actual server data is on the server itself, and you can't fool the server into thinking the item is not soulbound by editing your cache.

If you just want to have inaccurate cache, you can easily do that with your own server. Delete your WDB, make the item not soulbound on your server, see it in game on your server - now your cache says its not soulbound and it will look like that on all servers you play on.

You can use a hex editor to change the item in the cache, You probably need to set the file to read only to stop the server from overwriting it tho.

here is the struct for itemcache.wdb (5875)

itemcache.wdb header ( size 0x14 )
