I needed to share my greatest theiving achievement ever!! Usually I get nabbed trying to thieve something from a merchant and up until tonight the best thing I ever nabbed was a Rogue Stone that I had just sold to a merchant in the Docks area...
Tonight I took the gold in the Stolen Goods Olympics. I don't know what happened! My PC is a Level 13 Bounty Hunter with pertinent stats as follows:
Pickpockets: 80%
Hide Shadow: 72%
Move Silent: 70%
Check out this list of stolen goods I took from the Western Merchant in Trademeet (the one with the +3 bow that requires no ammo) :
~ Martial Staff +3
~ +2 Light Crossbow
~ Cloak of Displacement
~ +2 Dagger
~ +2 Bullets (Qty: 6 at 542G a pop thats savings you can't deny!)
~ Staff of Striking
AND
~ Belt of Inertial Barrier!
~ Ras the +2 Long Sword AKA the Dancing Blade
~ Long Sword +2
~ Arrows of Piercing (Qty: 3)
And to boot I sold back all the equipment I replaced after re-equipping myself. I have like a whole new party now and I had to go dig up a fight just to see my people in action.
I can't imagine this kind of success at stealing is normal but I did get caught eventually after my attempt at stealing the last quarrel of Arrows of Piercing. Of course I Quicksaved after every successful steal and I couldn't get the +3 Club of Acid or the Dwarven Thrower. I could barely use all of these items I had to sell some of it back.
Thanks! Just had to share this good good day to be a thief! I might never be able to play another character again after this thief.
