Thieving/Training
This page was last updated for (v0.20). |
Introduction
This page goes through the general method and tips of training the Thieving skill.
Equipment
There is no strict requirement to start Thieving, although food is highly recommended for anything with a less than 100% success rate. higher health will allow you to go without food for longer, and damage reduction Armor will allow you to eat less food. Thieving Gloves or Gloves of Silence will be helpful if you can afford them, but are not necessary.

In addition the following items can be worn to increase success chance:
The Gloves of Silence provides a 50 increase to stealth, a .1 second reduction to your thieving interval, and an additional 150 to each successful theft.
The Thieving Gloves purchased from the Shop provide a 75 increase to stealth.
The Golbin Mask can be pickpocketed from Golbin Chief and provides 20 stealth and 2% extra mastery
The Sneak-Ers are pickpocketed from any thieving target at a 1/15000 chance and give 40 stealth as well as 5% extra gold
Training
Prominently Thieving leveling will be done by swapping to the highest experience per action enemy to gain levels quickly, as long as the success chance remains fairly high. it is worth considering spending extra time pickpocketing the Golbin Chief for the Golbin Mask and Bandit Thug for the Thiever's Cape to increase exp rates as well as success chance. Farmer is also worth pickpocketing even after better targets are available. This gives the player a large base of seeds either to start Farming with, which can be done alongside thieving. finally, if the players prayer is high enough, Protect Item and Stone Skin can be used without costing any prayer points.
Items of note
- Chapeau Noir - Provides increased double drop chances of both gp and items rewarded in thieving and combat by 10%
- Bobby's Pocket - Can be sold for 4,000
