Great thieving guide but i believe

 

you missed one thing. Ardroune you lure a knight/guard

 

into the house behind the cake stall by thieving this guy

 

you can hit i think 60-70,000 xp per hour always wield

 

a bow with no arrows so then if you accidentally click on

 

the attack option instead of pick pocket you will not have

 

to relure this guy back in.

Personally, I like your guide, but I hate Bandits and the whole, lure, knock-out, pick pocket method. I have 65 theving, not at all due to bandits. I got a fewfrom pp, and most from master farmers. I have to say that it is a lot easierjust to do one of those as oppsed to Bandits.

Rofl. My chair has a fridge, a cooler, a toilet, a shower, and a barbecue bulit in.

Hey, I may have quite Runescape, but I just bought an XBOX 360 and play way to much COD4 with the Gamertag Lava Mage

in the old days, before the plunder thing came.... yea, maybe...

 

 

 

i tried and get stunned often, not a good method at all...

I'm on my way to bandits now, I'm 56 and I hate PP and Squ'rks ^^

 

Why not start pp lower? I started it at about 55 and it was very fast xp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Btw, i didn't read the whole guide. I just wanted to make a point if you didn't.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you would have actually read it, you would notice my explanation...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What explanation? As far as I can see, you just kept saying, 'nope bandits is way faster'. I've never done bandits, or PP, and I'm level 56, and I recommend doing Sorcerress' Garden until about 55, it breaks the monotony of pickpocketing, and it's generally faster expierience.

My rsn is steiner-99, but if you would have actually read the guide, you would have seen my thieving level:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I got my thieving cape on 25/03/2007, at 20.43 Pm GMT!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:o that's my birthday! <3:

Amazing guide :thumbsup: I'm going to try this ASAP I might go for 99 considering the capes awesome XD

On the road to 99 Firemaking.

nice guide, i still think its sad that people think pp is faster, i am betting most of those people have never tried training at bandits, in fact i didn't know about it till i read this guide :| anyways nice and after i get 99 fishing O_O i plan on 99 theiving and will definatly use these methods.

Very nice guide 10/10, im sure gonna use it to get 99 theiving.

Hmm, so you say at least 130k exp off of knocking those guards out an hour? Well, if you do the math, 130k exp/hour means that you did it flawlessly 7.5 times a minute. Yeh...not going to happen...

 

 

 

Maybe recalculate how much exp you actually get at those levels. 8/10

 

 

 

-1 for not including sq'irk juice for lower levels.

But...it's true lol.

 

 

 

Also, coming from a level 99 thief, who used mainly PP, BUT pickpocketed, did bandits, and other methods from 95-96, it's very, very, very hard. The exp can be very slow, the routine is monotonous, but it can be worth it. If you do decide for 99 thieving, with bandits/pickpocketing, gl, because you're in for the huge long haul. Before PP, only about 200-300 people had 99 thieving.

Good guide i give it a 10/10 eaisly
