Notes |
| Racht Muvora (body armor) | Driftwood - Papa Trash | Can be bought/stolen/looted. |
| Gloves Of Acquisition (+2 thieving) | Driftwood - Dashing June | For easy stealing, teleport Dashing June away as far East as possible. (picnic lady will disapprove) |
| Pride of Pryce (dagger) | Paradise Down - Gareth's father's corpse | Can be duplicated(along with your helmet) if equipped while doing Meistr Siva's ritual. You steal it from your god when they teach you spirit vision. (must be first time doing ritual. Also you may need to have a human character. Lizards and Dwarves only have duplicated helmets. Other races will need testing). |

| Kallisteis (boots) | Arx - Trader Aravae | Can be bought/stolen/looted. |
| Random belt with +1 thieving | Any belt vendor, loot | It should be common enough to acquire. If you want a specific belt with +1 thieving, Halla's Shiny Ribbon's has it. |
| Eternal Artefact enchantment | any boots. | You can enchant a pair of boots to give it +1 thieving. |
Thievery Tips
- The pickpocketing process can and will end prematurely if something cancels your sneaking (such as a different NPC walking up behind you) or if the NPC you are currently pickpocketing walks out of melee range.
- Because NPCs will usually walk around (making it difficult to pickpocket them), it can be effective to have one of your characters talk to the NPC you want to pickpocket, and then have your Thievery character sneak up behind and rob them while they are preoccupied.
- Undead characters can use their bony fingers to pick locks. Picking a lock with an undead character does not require a lockpick and will not consume a lockpick.
- It is possible to pickpocket usable items (such as food/potions, grenades, elemental arrows, etc) off of enemies before a fight. This will prevent those items from being used by them once you properly engage them in battle.
- If an object that seems like it could be unlocked (such as a sarcophagus) says that it is "too heavy", it actually requires Strength to open, and not Thievery.
- While most characters can be pickpocketed as long as you have 1 level in thievery, some very specific characters can only be pickpocketed with X thievery level. For example, "requires thievery 3 to pickpocket this character".
- While most locks/doors/gates/chests/etc in the game can be opened with the right thievery level, some special ones cannot be lockpicked no matter what.
- You can use Smoke Cover to quickly pickpocket people even while everyone is looking (Useful to rid guards of grenades/arrows, or to get a specific item or two). Bless the Smoke Cover (Grants invisibility) if you want more time stealing. Smoke is not usually recommended as it disappears after a few seconds and can leave the thief in a tight spot.
- Pickpocket NPCs in crowded areas by talking to them with a character and then teleporting that character away from anyone else. The NPC will walk over to that player, who is now out of eyesight of everyone else in town, to tell them not to poof away when someone is talking to them. You can now rob them blind in the comfort of a back alleyway.
- One trick to steal multiple times from the same NPC is to hire a mercenary character, respec them into thieving and then throwing all your thieving equipment on them. You can then dismiss them and hire a different mercenary and repeat the same process.

wanted to steal pryce dagger as i always do, but lohse cant do it. only helmet appears

Обворовать божество может игрок любой расы кроме нежити. Гномы точно могут. Для копирования одноручного оружия с помощью кражи нужно чтобы в левой руке было другое одноручное оружие или щит. Руны, вставленные в оружие и шлем, тоже копируются.
A deity can be robbed by a player of any race except the undead. Gnomes definitely can. Copying a one-handed weapon with theft requires another one-handed weapon or shield to be wielded in the left hand. Runes inserted into weapons and helmets are also copied.

You can infuse an eternal artifact on the Kallisteis boots, which will make it +2 Thievery

Fane (and i assume any other undead) duplicates helmet as well

If you need to work around the weight restriction then bribe (Give the gold with nothing in return) the person for better prices then steal the gold back. Not a perfect solution but it will give you about a 20% discount on the items + likely to get more gold back if you have a high skill in thievery. Make sure you use the person with bartering in your party to do all the trading even if it is because they are only a human.
Merchants will often restock after leveling so revisit them later to get more valuables with a second character or steal even more from them.

Which is the highest Amount of Gold, you had in the end?
My gold was around 1.5 million and inventory full of Equipment and trash with maybe around 100.000 gold worth.

Really overpowered, especially with an undead that does not need lockpicks (sell lockpicks for more gold).
Thievery will help you obtain better gear thanks to unlocking chests, you will also have more to sell due to looting chests, you can steal powerful items and skill books from vendors which makes you stronger right now and saves money, and whatever you steal from vendors you can sell back to them for even more profit.

This skill is just too OP. I've begun running a 2-member-only Lone Wolf run so as to ake the game challenging a bit, and while it is harder with only 2 people during fights, they have the absolute best available gear and 14k+ gold at arond 1/4th or 1/5th of Act 2. And this is with only 4 Thievery, mind you.

You can actually get a second +1 thief dagger. Make sure to get it before doing the ritual in act 2. Have it equipped (as well as another 1 hand weapon and helm you want to dupe). After gaining your new source skill and revealing your clone's true identity, pickpocket him with 5 thievery or better and he will have a duplicate of what ever you have equipped. This will get you up to 13 thievery in act 2 by level 14.

Easy way to steal from merchants in a crowed area: 1) have 1 Character talk to NPC 2) Use different Character to teleport that player away into an area no body is near 3) NPC will walk over to teleported player to tell him it's not nice to disappear when someone is talking to them 4) After dialog ends use teleported player to initiate dialog lock 5) Rob the sucker absolutely blind with the rest of your group 6) Profit!!!!!

Another way to remove stolen marker from items is to get them confiscated/stolen by NPCs then retrieve them. Such as the third floor of the Black Bull.

You can steal from an NPC once PER character. This means you can respec at the ship and steal with all 4 characters. Take it a step further and hire as many mercenaries as you desire and rob towns blind!

How you can unmark "stolen" from ALL items!:
1) Put all stolen goods into a bag
2) Hire a mercenary temporarily
3) Give the bag to the mercenary
4) Dismiss the mercenary
The mercenary will leave and upon leaving will return all your items back to you. The bag of goods will all be considered "acquired gear" from the mercenary, and no longer tagged as stolen.

If you want to steal anyone, just teleport them far away from their main location, but talk to them before with another member of your team. When you TELEPORT someone who is TALKING to somebody he will take NO DAMAGE and this won't start a fight. If it's really not possible to teleport the target, a blessed cloud cover will also work but two turns of smoke is short.

There is a bug or feature, I don't really know, but in 3.0.146.559 still working.
Get a coin purse, fill with much gold as you have. Sell it, then stole it back. Basicly you will only stole the purse value(like 20g) and not the inside value.
So you can buy everything and stole all your money back. I started Arx with 800-900k gold.

Note that you can put items to somone's invertory by pickpocketing and it doesent count as pickpocketing ;)
- Anonymous
Note that if you just take a look at what a NPC has ("pickpocket" someone without actually taking any object), it doesn't count as a pickpocket and will be able to pickpocket him later.

tips (only work with 2+ companion) :
1 - When you want to pickpocket a NPC, start to talk with him with one of your companion, this way he will be lock in is position, then select your other companion (the one with the thievery skill) and go behind him to pickpocket.
2 - to be safer you can use your remaning companion to talk to the closest NPC to make sure you wont be find.
3 - After pickpocketing you can either run somewhere, or put the stollen item on the floor, then release the npc by closing the chatbox. (after that he will noticed the thievery and start talking to one (or more) fo your companion, wait for it, then when its done take back the item and wlak freely.
4 - NPC can only be pickpocket ONCE
Hope this will help,
Taz
Lmfao 360,000. I have thievery at 10 atm, i found every possible piece. There's a unique belt with thievery on it but it's fairly common if you have 1 character with lucky charm (and equipments with + + + that hahahaha). I'm curious about boots I'm in act 2 still.. just combine any boots with an artifact? The eternal plate from that ancient tomb place? It's a good idea to just buy items so they aren't tagged stolen unless you wanna switch characters and put those stolen items on another character, it's annoying scrolling through them all! You can always persuade your way out of it but then randomly the npc will ask another party member to show them their pockets. Send it to lady vengeance worked good... when mass stealing scrolls lol. Some scrolls 1. Cost less AP 2. Take source to cast. So stealing a source spell scroll is like a free source (I just put teleport pyramid next to source vats asap lol..)
