While it won't make the record books as the best first steal, it's what I got, and with only 70.7 stealing, I'll have to say not too bad...



The best part is I got a gain off of the steal...la

Simply amazing... People forget this skill exists & I love it. I may have to make a thief some time this winter and join you, its been too long since I stole from people... Most fun I ever had in this game was sitting at brit bank before the tram/fel split stealing everything I could and really hoping no one noticed and guard whacked me.

Yeah, I was a bit surprised that I only got whacked once trying to nab that. I had 70.8 stealing skill and was in Luna above the bank. Second attempt was a clean steal, but I used an old technique, where the first one was me, just standing next to the mark...la

Was your "old technique" steal through the ceiling/floor? Lol.. I used to steal from people on brit bank roof from the floor level all the time, though they may have fixed that since 15 yrs ago.. I won't post the details of HOW to do that to avoid breaking stratics rules on a fresh account and getting banned again like I did back then. Being an adult sucks sometimes, knowing rules and whatnot... I also don't really know if that works still, I'll go test it out with my 2 accounts. I still have a thief but he's mainly a doom/sa/eodon thief at this point... RARES! gotta catch em all!

LOL, no. Just a technique that seems to get me steals unnoticed more often than not. Can't tell you how many pet summoning balls I stole in various banks in the past completely unnoticed. Granted, I had 120 stealing skill and the balls weight 10 stones, but when I started using this "technique", I rarely got noticed let alone guard whacked. Best part, it's completely legal...la
