Best thieving methods

Featured Replies

Hi! I;m planning on training thieving up to 65 (preferably) and I was wondering what the best method is (currently have 48)

 

1. Sorceress's Garden

 

2. Pickpocketing (if so, please tell me what)

 

3. Stalls (Again, tell me what stall)

 

 

 

Thanks in advance ^.^

The quill is a miracle, for it drinks darkness and sheds light.

 

Oh right, by the way, I'm a girl. No more calling me a guy you lot~

I think i would pickpocket the master farmer. The one in Edgeville. Just try to lock him in the pig pen and empty his pockets...

I think blackjacking in Pollienech is the best XP nowadays. Until 60 at least.

That would be Draynor Village.

Best is PP :thumbup:

 

This is infact the best by far. Might even be the best till 99.

Technically black jacking is best to 99 and can exceed 270k/h with perfection . I hate black jacking and suck at it however so I would just PP lol

Theoretically, Blackjacking is far superior, but hating it, I would probably do a mix of master farmers (that may just be because I like the seeds) and then Pyramid Plunder, which is supposedly almost as good as blackjacking, and with usually better rewards.

I got from 57 - 60 thieving in about 45 minutes blackjacking... I'm pretty sure it's good exp...

Blackjacking is probably the quickest but it's a lot of clicking so you might wanna split it up with some pp and master farmers.

The entire game is clicking -.-

 

Unless you have arthritis, (in which case you probably shouldn't be playing runescape in the first place) I'd stick with blackjacking. I can go 45 minutes non-stop without a problem and only a few mis-clicks. Once you get the whole "double pickpocketing" thing down, it's really easy (not to mention the massive exp).

You're hardly in a position to give advice. If you've only blackjacked from 57-60 Thieving and gained the approximate 70k experience required in 45 minutes, then not only are you not adequately practiced in this method, but you also did something wrong while you were blackjacking; trust me when I say that training from 57 to 60 Thieving is nothing compared to having to blackjack to 99 and that you should have gained at least double the experience you earned in your 45-minute spree had you been training correctly.

 

 

 

To the OP:

 

Pickpocketing the Master Farmer in the Draynor pig pen will suffice for your purposes, however, if ever you plan on additional Thieving in the future, I'd suggest trying out both Blackjacking and Pyramid Plunder. If you can tolerate Blackjacking and are fairly skillful, then that's excellent; it's far and away the best experience. However, if you're anything like myself, you'll get bored with it and turn to Pyramid Plunder. Don't misunderstand--Pyramid Plunder will still be somewhat frustrating, but not nearly to the extent of Blackjacking (it must be the pillaging aspect that makes it tolerable, at least). :P

 

 

 

Also beware of dubious advice, it would seem. :?

 

Some of the people in H & A are very helpful and knowledgeable, but others are just here for the easy post-count, I think. Always look for sources provided and confirmation from others. Also, while it may not always prove to be accurate, check the posters' Hiscores links (if provided); in general, more experienced players will actually know what they're talking about.
