Proxmark 3 Easy Sniff Range [SOLVED]

From how far can the Proxmark 3 Easy sniff?
Thanks in advance.

HF or LF?

What kind of credential?

Sniff the reader or scan a card or snoop on the communication between the two?

HF, communication between the two, I’m unsure of what you mean with credential. I’m pretty new to this, hence the poorly written question.

Is it the Mifare Classic from your other post?

The ideal set-up for snooping communications like that is to sandwich the PM3 between the card and the reader, it’s quite short range. Though you may be able to still get the wanted data from a little further

I think a decent rule of thumb would be about as far as you could get a scan off the card from the reader

Why the need to sniff from a distance? You wouldn’t be sniffing things you aren’t supposed to, right…?

Yes, it is the Mifare Classic from my other post. I am not planning to sniff things I am not supposed to. That’s why I’m asking! Thought it was better then testing my way to an answer. Well, thank you for the answer. If there is nothing else, have a great day.
