This is a good post. I always play a human female and most of the time will play as a Fighter, although have played as a Mage before. As for your Rogue character, I usually don't pickpocket either, but have found that pickpocketing in this game gets your items you just can't purchase. Seems reasonable to think that if you can pickpocket them, then you should be able to purchase them, but that hasn't been the case in Wiz 8.
