ok, im a theif. my question is, is there any good tech theif items out there? im currently using some creep armor and some other junk, it just is so nice, but because of my pick lock skill, my tech is thru the roof. if there is no good theif tech, then should i just start throwing points into 1st lvl spells to get my magick up? also, where is the friggin book salesmen in tarant university place? i hear of these fabled tech books that help you make stuff, but i cant find the friggin salesmen. a name and address would help
What's the big problem with being a tech thief? So you don't get bonuses from magic items, big deal, you can still get your hands on anything you want if you have high enough pickpocket and prowling. And lock picking works much better then unlocking cuntrip spell. The real pity is that you can't steal all the person's money at once, only 100 gold pieces per try. Does anyone know if its possible to steal more?
make the auto lockpicks, theyre third in mechanical. as a thief you might want to learn all of mechanical so you can have arachnids following you around to help you fight and in your pocket when you need to prowl.
In the last building in the university there is a room with a Human & a Dwarf. The Dwarf is the book seller. Thief items, Oiled Thieves leather gives 1/4 point in prowl, pickpocket, & spot traps. Two Charged Rings give + 4 DX. Eye Gear, + 2 PE. Janya's drugs, +2 each ST, DX, PE. I have seen a Mechanical Dagger do 72 points of dammage backstabing. Or go mage thief. Max your lockpicking without spending CPs on DX by using Agility of Fire. Other low level spells that are very useful; Shield of Protection, Purity of Water, Disarm, Stun. And the Phantasim college tops out with Invisibility.
