Well in the past 2 days i've gotten thieving from 54 to 68 (nearly 69 =o). And btw, this guide has also inspired me to go for 99 thieving :)

 

 

 

And another thing. At first I didn't believe the xp rates, but they really are possible *if* you can stay concentrated for that long. Which is unfortunately hard for me :P

 

 

 

Ye. Its best to break up your levels or do a joint, bankable skill too.

 

 

 

E.g. Get 70-75 thieving, then go to Nardah and get 70-75 fletching (for example)

 

This way, you can have a productive break :P

thats freaking awesome! i saved this page :D

Ima try this, but i use a touch pad. However, that wont hinder me at all. I killed jad with a touch pad, i pk with a touch pad, and i play counter strike with a touch pad (many say this is impossible). So touch pads are ftw :twisted: :twisted:

this will get me to 51 for dt!

 

now 4 more days till unban

What type of blackjack should i buy a normal one a (o) or a (d)

What type of blackjack should i buy a normal one a (o) or a (d)

 

 

 

Makes no difference.

 

 

 

You could use just a Maple blackajack and it wouldn't matter.

 

 

 

Only the material counts, not the type. :D

 

 

 

Goodluck

wow :shock: this is a great guide. i must try this...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ps. make more guides

 

 

 

 

 

pps.is it to soon to say...aow worthy =P~

Very nice i just tested it out, i managed to get 3 pick pockets in 1 go heres a pic

 

 

 

A little tip for dodging thugs:

 

When the thug attacks, you don't have to leave the building. Just make sure the thug is touching the south wall (he'll be standing next to a barrel).

 

How to do this:

 

1) make him follow you

 

2) stand on the spot where he needs to be (touching the south wall)

 

3) click 'walk here' under him; now you should switch positions

 

(if you don't, just repeat steps 2 and 3 until you do)

 

 

 

When the thug attacks, just step north of the barrel (either take a step east or west). He will be blocked and you can run in and ko him without problem, when your health bar disappears (maybe even sooner). This is a lot easier than opening the door. This way, he will always be blocked.

If I am correct the last pickpocket was just a normal pickpocketing, not the "ko" one, because you can pickpocket them normally too but it just has a higher chance of getting caught. Do you get the point ? :P

I used it from 45-55 for a quest requirement and knew about it before this guide, found it on the RSOF, i've always told people its fast as hell but people never listen. Nice guide and glad you enlightened everyone else about this awesome method

And this method is really faster than PP?

Very helpful. Considering I was going for 99 next anyway :)

Wow. I'm going to use this to get to 50 Thieving.

 

 

 

Nice guide. 9/10

 

 

 

:thumbsup:

Hats off, thankyou for this :D

 

 

 

Absolutely great guide.

 

 

 

One little nitpick is that setting mouse buttons to one doesn't really help, as you do all the clicking with one finger instead of sharing it between two. Can you be uncoordinated between two fingers?

Sorry all, i've been on holiday for two weeks, but im back now am i'm gonna add a host of new pictures, tips etc to the guide.

 

 

 

I'll try to answers as many questions as possible;

Hm, thats a valid point. But i found, personally, one click is a little easier... Sure, it hurts one finger twice as much, but i did find it easier to control.

Up to level 91, i definitely think it is.

 

It also costs a little less - just the cost for wines really. - not to mention to 5m+ pure cash profit.

Very good point. I'll add that to my guide later.

 

:)

 

 

 

 

 

Right, now to get back on and get to bandits.

Wines are very good but have you thought about cake?

 

They're 66gp and heal 12 as opposed to 80gp healing 11?

Shame.

 

And I just made a video guide too :(

 

 

 

I'll link this thread if it's okay.

Shame.

Really is a shame. I was going to raise thieving... it being my lowest stat.

Silly Jagex killing blackjacking :|

I do hope it´s a bug, since I was kinda looking forward to thieving some more using that method :cry:

Well...dont worry.Even the emote is slower,you still can pick twice a turn(the time needed is about the same with the old verson)

 

Don't quit this guide....it still can help a lot of people

Is that true? I tried to pick twice, and on 15-20 attempts, i came out fruitless. I couldn't get more than one in...

I think thieving is still the same speed as before, just thieve using the text in the chat window. I did it at master farmers before and after the graphics update lol, it's still the same there, I'm ASSUMING it's the same for blackjacking, you may want to look into it.

Even if the update does kill blackjacking, what does it really matter for thieving? People now are just going to have to settle for what 20k xp/hr less in PP which is much easier on your eyes/fingers.
