Stealing Levels and Lock Picking Levels..

[SephirothYuyX]

Currently my thf is at 30, wanting to raise to 45, but id rather stay on track with BLM again since i havent lvld it in over 7 months..

But i was wondering at what levels can i steal which coins succsesfully? I want gold ^^

And at what lvl can i pick locks? mainly looking for which lvl i can pick locks at FeiYen for life belts.

I saw a thread, i thought was on this site, that gave what lvl you need to be succsesfull to pick most all chests/coffers, anyone know of that thread?


Also with the stealing.. is it possible to go blm/thf and steal gold coins from mobs? or will i have to lvl my thf to a certain lvl?

[Fire]

shrug most that stuff is just bs heh, whm in my ls opened her BD coffer with 45 thf ;p as for coins its all just luck~ best to wait for 45 for hide tho ;p

I planned to steal gold coins from the af mobs in mosaic/davoi and theres a zone like 5 steps away, so I think i might go ahead and try that..


But the thing im wondering is.. i will prob go blm/thf instead of thf/??? would a /thf have the same chance as a thf/ at the same lvl?

i wouldnt think a 61blm/30thf would have a disadvatage compared to a 30thf/???

I want to know the coffer part of your question since I hit 50 lastnight.

Here's a good source of info about coffer picking at various places, courtesy of allakhazam: CLICKY

Ive now attempted stealing mobs at the monsaic/davoi zone and ive gotten 4 gold coins in like 4 hours.. so thats like 6k an hour..

And in terms of my standards.. thats good @__@;; since i usually farm cotton and get a stack that sells for 6k an hour..

Instead of going for gold beastcoins, you should try stealing Mythrils. There are a lot of places you can jack those from, Davoi is one of them, Gustav/LabyOnzozo gobs you can steal/hide, and if an exp pt is there- they will kill them, and refresh new ones for you to steal from.
You will have a much higher sucess rate with mtls. They're ~20k/stack, and better gil/hr for the most part, especially if you're thf is only lv30

This is a bit off topic, but I guess it's close enough =). I'm level 25 right now, and just got the RSE glove quest. I'm supposed to go to the Maze of Shakrami (sp) and get the plans (or whatever) from a Treasure Chest (or Coffer maybe, I don't know). I'd love to do this at level 27, so that I can use them right away.

So anyway, on to my question. What level can I pick the lock of the coffer/chest to get what I need? Can I do it by 27? If I can't (or even if I can..) what level could one Thief (me) and one Warrior (my brother) take the monsters that drop the key? And what monsters are those? Also, any other info that you think would help me get my gloves would be great.

Thanks for any replies. I could have just gone out and figured it out on my own, but I didn't really want to go get myself killed trying for something I can't do anyway.

At lvl 30 I went to ordelles to help a whm and a drg get keys for their hume RSE, we didnt had any problem killing the mobs one at a time. Later I went to Shakrami to help an elvaan, and got killed by some aggro and linking crawlers. I opened 2 of the RSE chest, in gusgen mines, using skeleton key at lvl 31 the same day. About RSE, check the link:Zebraflood

Does anyone know if a mob has a certain coin refresh rate?

Say if i steal a coin from a mob, can i steal another right after steal is ready again?

Or does that mob have to be killed/spawned or have a certain wait period before stealing again?


I wonder if anyone knows a formula for steal succses/rate.

You can only steal one item per mob. If you steal Zone, zone back and steal again from the same mob you'll NEVER get another item from it. Just like if you have two thf's in a pt and one steals an item and the other steals after that person will NEVER get an item from that mob.

I downloaded a stealing guide from a-Technina, Carbuncle 59THF/43RNG/33WAR/25NIN Rank 6- post, even tought I took note of the posters Name I dont remember from wich site I downloaded the guide, so I cant post the link, but I pasted the following:

Just to clarify no it is not possibly to steal twice from the same mob. If you think it may have happened to you, it was a different mob wandered in.

Cool, thanks for the reply, and the link =) I doubt I'll be getting a Shakhrami Key any time soon, so I guess I'll go try to pick the lock when I get near 27. =) Anyway, thanks again for the reply.
