Hunter and Thieving.

[gorgoroth]

Well Hunter and Thieving are two of the skills i want to get to 99 as soon as i can. Im doing Hunter at the moment and im guessing i wont move anywhere untill i reach 99. Im doing Red Chins for hunter and im getting about 40k Exp a moment at levl 66. Now here are a few question:

 

 

 

Hunter:

 

 

 

1.) What will my exp rated be when i reach 70, 80, 90 Hunter? (How many Chins per hour)

 

[Getting about 150 - 160 Chins a hour at the moment]

 

Thieving:

 

 

 

1.) With a current level of 43, how shall i start my journey to 99? Which methods should i use? I heard about Black Jacking but i have no idea what it is and how you do it(any quests to unlock it?)

 

 

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

You need to do the Feud Quest to do blackjacking.

 

 

 

Also, I believe that the lowest requirement for effective BlackJacking is level 45.

 

 

 

The setup is very basic:

 

Buy around...2k wines and a maple blackjack.

 

 

 

Carry the 2k wines with you and 1 spot for gp and wield the blackjack, and fill the rest of your inventory up with food.

 

Lure the Bandit (or whichever one you're trying to get) into an empty house, close the curtains and knock him out.

 

If you knocked him out, pickpocket him 2x really fast, and repeat.

 

If he's not knocked out, immediately do it again and he won't have time to attack you.

 

 

 

If he does become aggressive, run out and away until he's unaggressive and repeat above.

 

 

 

When you get low on food, refill by selling and rebuying wines from the general store in Pollnivnech.

 

 

 

Repeat above till you have reached the level you want.

 

 

 

I believe that this is the best method till you can reach the highest room in Pyramid Plunder (Level 91 or 92). Once you can, switch to that.

Like this ^^

 

 

 

Except no need to buy more than naiventory of wines. Just drop the jugs as you drink them, then buy direct from the bar in Polly (right next door to my favourite thug thumping location).

 

 

 

No need to run too far away if you mess up, just run around the corner of a crate or table, so he can't reach you and then wait until your damage bar disappears - then carry on.

What is the exp/hour rate with black jacking? Any kind of profit?

[ddaanniiellh]

There's a guide on BlackJacking in the Archive's of Wisdom...it has the xp/hrs in there.

 

 

 

It is profit, but I'm not sure what the amount is for the lower bandits.

 

It still shouldn't be too low. If you can stun them 100% of the time, you get 80 gp per successful stun (If you're fast enough).

 

That should come out to ~1200 successive stuns per hour (I'm guessing it takes takes around 5 sec for the bandit to wake back up). So that's...around 96k per hour?

I'm sure I read somewhere it was 3.6 seconds per cycle (ko, pickpocket, pickpocket). You do fail quite often to start (and it takes a while to get it right). But don't give up! I'm getting over 120k ph at level 73.
