Stealing

[Crypt_Fiend]

while in dialogue with a character that sells you items can you use the steal button on that screen without being caught.

[Maurice]

Nope, you have a chance of behind caught red handed. The better your pickpocket skill, the better your chances for success will be.

If you get caught in the act, your reputation will drop 2 points, and the merchant will go hostile and leave the area you're in. He won't 'unturn' later in the game, he's angry for good in that case.

Thanks again.

Certain merchants have a lesser chance of catching you too.Check the previous topics on this subject.(Sell to merchant ,steal it right back,sell it again =$$$$$$$ But remember you have to sell it to a fence the second time.). http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

If you want to be able to Steal and get rich easy and suit up your squad. Go to Waulkeens Promenade..(sp prolly ;D) Go to the blacksmith he is on near the left and up top in a room, its like the top most door. There is 2 Guys there, 1 who sells armor and 1 that sells random junk but has a lot of magical arrows. I recommend (sp?) stealing Full Plate Mail +1 for all your Melee People and stealing a lot o Arrows for your Thief. Now you need to Have a PickPocketing Skill of around 150 to not get caught. So drink a Potion of Master Thievery and use the gloves of pickpocketing. And if your looking for money, steal a lot of arrows of dispelling and sell those bad boys...there like 1300 a pop. There might be errors in this but that's because im Tired http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/smile.gif
