Should I lower stealth/stealing from 120 for equipment?

Alexei · 19th June 2008, 01:55 PM

I calculated it up and I can make a pretty decent suit with them but I'm still not sure if I want to lower stealing/stealth.

Here's what my skills are at
120 Stealing
120 Stealth
120 Ninjitsu
100 Snooping
100 Hiding
110 Magery

After this I have 50 skill points left over and if you add the bandana and the shadow dancers...thats an extra 120 points.

I was thinking of going with either tracking or detect hidden.... I think tracking would be better especially at gm but not sure...who knows maybe even wrestling or magic resist....

If you are going to have 120 extra skill points left over......

Are you going to be stealing from people? I might go with something like fencing to be able to use shadowstrike..

Couldn't I just use egg/smoke bombs and be just as effective?

I believe smoke bombs share the timer that hiding uses. (can only use it every so many seconds). You could sit there and spam shadowstrike all day though.

Why so much in magery? I'm going to assume a production shard since you are talking about putting a suit together. Elf, human? What style of thief do you enjoy playing?

Answer these questions and we should be able to help you out...la
