99 Thieving - Questions

[Norriie]

I'd like to go for 99 theiving soon, and I'm just curious how I should go about doing it.

 

So, I'm asking all you smart people some questions. Answers would be greatly appreciated :]

 

 

 

1. I assume pyramid plunder is still the fastest way, yes? I'm level 67 thief right now, should I start out at pp right away or is there some other place I should train first?

 

 

 

2. How much money can I expect (hope?) to make? Or, rather, anyone know an average of how many pharoah's sceptres I might get?

 

 

 

3. Exp/hour averages? I've heard once you get to the last pp room you can get 200k or more, is this true?

 

 

 

4. What gear should I wear to pp? Also, what should my inventory look like? I'm pretty sure I've completed all related quests, and my stats are in my sig if that helps.

 

 

 

5. Pyramid plunder strategies? What will I have time to do?

 

 

 

Thanks in advance for your help :twss:

Mostly you just want light armour, so d hide should do the trick. When I went there 60-63 thief I just prayed and used dds spec + whip to get through the combat. Maybe 5-10 monks and a prayer book if you've completed the great brain robbery, and a couple of super anti's if not.

On my trip to 99 thieving I used...

 

 

 

Items worn:

 

Spottier Cape

 

Boots of Lightness

 

Pharaohs Sceptre

 

 

 

Inventory:

 

2-4 Super Anti(4)

 

Monkfish

 

All my Tireless Run Scrolls

 

 

 

I would summon a terrorbird and would only use prayer on the mummies. I would sip 1 dose of my anti right as I got into the first room, as the dose lasts for 5 minutes and so does each round of PP.

If you want, you can also try to get 90 agility for the legs and top therefore you would be light and have your def up some.

I would do that if I had the patience to get 90 agil ;P

 

But I've got a spottier cape, lightness boots, and penance gloves, so I think it ought to be enough to get my weight down low enough.

 

 

 

Thanks for your responses, everyone. ^^

Bumping for a couple questions have not yet been answered

5. Pyramid plunder strategies? What will I have time to do?

 

 

 

You only get 5 mintues per game, which at lower levels is alot of time, and higher levels not so much.

 

 

 

Best thing to do is always go through each room thieving the golden chest in the center, then use the doors. Keep doing this until you get to the highest level room you can use.

 

 

 

One you get there, loot all the urns first, then the golden chest last (to keep scarabs away until the end). Do NOT waste time with the Sarcoughagous as they do not give any thieving xp.

 

 

 

At lower levels you will have time left over, while at higher levels you will be pushing your limit to get to the highest room.

 

 

 

Also, try to play the game on worlds with other people. Doors for the rooms only reset every 60 seconds or so, so if you see someone go through a door before you, use that door as its a high chance you can use it before the doors reset. This saves alot of time in figuring out which door is the correct one of the 4 to use.

[Norriie]

Ah, ok, I'll try a highly populated world then.

 

Thank you :]

Okay..? I'm sorry, but that doesn't really help me.

 

Do you have something to contribute?
