The Warcraft III Profile Request often involves several messages to get complete profile information for a user, partially depending on whether or not the user is in a clan.

The following is the request order:

C > S [0x35] SID_PROFILE

S > C [0x35] SID_PROFILE

contains: profile\location, profile\description, and clan tag)

C > S [0x44] SID_WARCRAFTGENERAL subcommand 0x04, user stats request

S > C [0x44] SID_WARCRAFTGENERAL

contains: detailed user game statistics

If the clan tag of SID_PROFILE is not 0 (if the user is in a clan):

C > S [0x82] SID_CLANMEMBERINFORMATION

S > C [0x82] SID_CLANMEMBERINFORMATION

contains: clan full name, user clan rank, and user join date

C > S [0x44] SID_WARCRAFTGENERAL subcommand 0x08, clan stats request

S > C [0x44] SID_WARCRAFTGENERAL

contains: detailed clan game statistics

Overall, the process lets you obtain the following data:

SID_PROFILE tells you the user's description, location, and whether or not the user is in a clan. SID_CLANMEMBERINFORMATION tells you the rank of the user within his/her clan and when the user joined, as well as the full name of the clan. SID_WARCRAFTGENERAL allows you to retrieve the actual numerical stats of both the user's clan and himself/herself. Profile retrieval is incomplete until all of this data has been processed.
