'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is used to pickpocket [[GP]] and items. Each Thieving attempt takes a base 3 seconds, reduced as low as 1.8
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is used to pickpocket [[GP]] and items. Some items obtainable from Thieving are unique to the skill and cannot be found elsewhere. Many of these unique items are [[Equipment]] which provide bonuses to Thieving and other non-combat skills.


Thieving can be done with [[Offline Progression]] if the success rate is at 90% or above.
Thieving can be done with [[Offline Progression]], although the player must do so with caution as it is possible to die if the player's [[#Success Rate|success rate]] against the [[#Thieving Targets|NPC]] is below 100%.


== Mechanics ==
== Mechanics ==
=== Action Time ===
Each Thieving attempt takes a base time of 3 seconds. Having at least {{Icon|Mastery}} level 50 with the NPC being stolen from, the 25% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery Pool Checkpoint]], and {{AgilityIcon|Rooftop Run}} each reduce this by 0.2 seconds. A further 0.5 seconds reduction is achieved while the {{ItemIcon|Thieving Skillcape}} is equipped, 0.1 while the {{ItemIcon|Gloves of Silence}} are equipped, and up to 5% with {{ConstellationIcon|Ko}} ({{MasteryReq|Ko|20|type=constellation}}). All of these reductions combined result in an action time of 1.65 seconds, the lowest possible in the [[Full Version|base game]].


=== Success Rate ===
With the [[Throne of the Herald Expansion]], the {{ItemIcon|Superior Thieving Skillcape}} can be used for a 0.8 second reduction (0.3 seconds more than the {{ItemIcon|Thieving Skillcape}}), 0.1 seconds while the {{ItemIcon|Grappling Hook}} is equipped, 3% with the {{AgilityIcon|Elite Pillar of Expertise}}, and 2% once {{PetIcon|Harold}} is unlocked. The lowest possible action time in the expansion is therefore 1.1 seconds.
The chance of success is <math>\frac{100 + \text{Stealth}}{100 + \text{Perception}}</math> resulting in a guaranteed success once your stealth equals their perception.


There is no need to stop gaining stealth at this point however, as more stealth can increase the chance of getting your loot doubled, as well as increasing the chance of getting the targets unique item (if applicable)
Note that these reductions do not reduce the duration of [[#Failure|stuns]] which occur when a pickpocket attempt fails.


=== Stealth and Perception ===
Simply put, stealth is a measure of how good the player is at stealing, while perception is a measure of how difficult an [[#Thieving Target|NPC]] is to steal from - The player's stealth competes against an NPC's perception. It is usually preferable to maximize stealth as this increases the success rate, chance to double items, and the chance to receive an NPC's unique item. An NPC's perception is fixed and cannot be reduced.


=== Loot ===
The player's stealth, the NPC's perception, and the resulting success rate, doubling chance and unique item chance can be viewed in game by first selecting an NPC and then hovering over the {{Skill|Thieving|notext=true}} icon.
 
Stealth can be maximized as below. Note that two sets of gloves can only be equipped simultaneously once the [[Combat Passive Slot|Passive Slot]] has been unlocked.

==== Success Rate ====
The chance of success is <math>min\left(1, \tfrac{100 + \text{Stealth}}{100 + \text{Perception}}\right)</math>, resulting in a guaranteed success once the player's stealth is the same or greater than the NPC's perception.
 
For example, a player who has stealth of 200 while pickpocketing the {{Icon|Bandit Thug|type=thieving}} will have a chance of success equal to <math>min\left(1, \tfrac{100 + 200}{100 + 220}\right) = 0.9375 = 93.75\%</math>.
 
Some NPCs have a perception that is greater than the maximum possible stealth, therefore it is not always possible to guarantee each pickpocket attempt will succeed.
 
==== Item Doubling ====
The additional chance to double items due to stealth is <math>min\left(1, \tfrac{\text{Stealth}}{4 \times \text{Perception}}\right)</math>, double items can therefore be guaranteed from stealth alone if the player's stealth is at least four times the NPC's perception.
 
For example, a player who has stealth of 330 while pickpocketing the {{Icon|Bandit Thug|type=thieving}} will have a chance to double equal to <math>min\left(1, \tfrac{330}{4 \times 220}\right) = 0.3750 = 37.50\%</math>.
 
This is additive with the chance to double items provided by other [[#Skill Boosts|Thieving specific]] and [[Double Loot|global]] sources (up to a maximum of 100%), and multiplicative with the 35% chance of quadruple items from the {{ItemIcon|Leprechaun}} and {{ItemIcon|Devil}} [[Summoning#Synergies|synergy]], for a potential 8x multiplier to items received from Thieving.
 
The item multiplier applies to all possible item drops, being: NPC common drops, general rare drops, [[#Thieving Targets|NPC unique drops]], and [[#Areas|area unique drops]].


- ''See also [[Combat#Loot and Rewards]]
==== NPC Unique Item Chance ====
The chance to receive an NPC's unique item upon a successful pickpocket attempt is <math>\tfrac{100 + \text{Stealth}}{10\,000 \times \text{Perception}}</math>.


Successfully pickpocketing a target will always award the player with [[GP]] between the minimum and maximum of the target. There is also a chance to receive loot from most targets as listed on their "common drops"
For example, a player who has stealth of 800 while pickpocketing the {{Icon|Merchant|type=thieving}} will have a unique item drop chance equal to <math>\tfrac{100 + 800}{10\,000 \times 300} = 0.0003 = 0.03\%</math>.


In addition to the rewards for the specific target being pickpocketed, successful attempts also have a chance to reward the player with three rare items, as well as multiple area specific items, and in most cases, an item unique to that npc, in addition to the normal loot:
=== Loot ===
- ''See also [[Combat#Loot and Rewards]]''


{{ItemIcon|Bobby's Pocket}} has a or 0.83% chance of being received on any successful pickpocket. Although the item itself is useless, it can be sold for {{GP|4000}}.
Successfully pickpocketing an NPC will always award the player with [[GP]] between the minimum and maximum of that NPC. There is also a 75% chance to receive an item at random from the NPC's common drops, provided the NPC has any possible common drops at all.


{{ItemIcon|Chapeau Noir}} has a <math>\frac{1}{20,000}</math> or 0.005% chance of being received on any successful pickpocket. When worn, it provides a <math>\frac{1}{10}</math> or 10% chance to double loot acquired from {{Icon|Combat}} or Thieving.
In addition, each successful pickpocket attempt will also have a chance to reward the player with the [[#Thieving Targets|NPC's unique drop]] (should they have one), the [[#Areas|area's unique drop]], and all of the following general rare items:
{{ThievingRareDrops}}


{{ItemIcon|Sneak-Ers}} have a <math>\frac{1}{15.000}</math> or 0.067% chance of being received on any successful pickpocket. it provides 40 stealth and 5% global gp
The chance of acquiring area unique drops is <math>\frac{1}{500}</math> or 0.20% per item, while the chance of acquiring an NPC's unique drop is dependent on the player's stealth and the NPC's perception (see: [[#NPC Unique Item Chance|NPC Unique Item Chance]]).


The drop rates of area unique drops vary per area, and the drop rates of NPC uniques vary depending on your stealth compared to their perception.
It is possible to receive common drops along with any (or even all) rare or unique drops from the same action. The chance to double items is only rolled once per action, therefore if the quantity of items received is multiplied the number of rare items received will also be increased. Even if the NPC has no common drops, any rare or unique drops can still be multiplied.


It is possible to receive loot, alongside any (or even all) rare or unique drop all from the same action. If the quantity of items received is multiplied due to either a potion or equipment effect, the number of rare items received will also be increased, however the chance to multiply items is only rolled if normal loot is also received from the same action.
The various ways in which loot can be multiplied are detailed within the [[#Item Doubling|Item Doubling]] section.


Loot can be multiplied in three ways: Raising stealth can be used to provide as much as a guaranteed chance to double items, at a rate of 25*<math>\frac{stealth}{perception}</math>, meaning that 4x the targets perception is needed to guarantee your loot be doubled solely from stealth. {{Skill|Agility}} can provide +<math>\frac{1}{20}</math> or +5% chance to double items gained through the Rock Climb obstacle, however this is in the same slot as the rooftop run, which is usually preferable for thieving. Equipment items can also provide a separate doubling effect (currently, the items/skills that provide a chance to double loot are the {{ItemIcon|Chapeau Noir}}, Master tier Slayer gear,{{ItemIcon|Aorpheat's Signet Ring}}) and {{ItemIcon|Ring of Wealth}}. All the bonus mentioned stack additively.
GP gained can be increased by the following bonuses. In addition, the 50% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] increases GP gained by 100% and each NPC mastery level increases GP gained by 1% for that NPC only.


GP gained can be increased by the following bonuses. In addition, the 50% [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool checkpoint]] increases GP gained by 100%. Note that any flat bonuses (such as that provided by {{ItemIcon|Gloves of Silence}}) are increased by any percentage bonuses that are active.

Further, the loot and GP gained can be modified in various ways by {{ItemIcon|Leprechaun}} {{Skill|Summoning}} synergies, see [[Leprechaun]] for a list of each synergy.

=== Failure ===
=== Failure ===
Failed pickpocket attempts will stun the player for 3 seconds and deal damage to them up to the target's Max Hit; damage dealt this way can be reduced by any sources of [[Damage Reduction|damage reduction]] (DR). Damage taken while Thieving is potentially lethal, although this damage can be offset by consuming [[food]] manually, or automatically with the {{UpgradeIcon|Auto Eat}} upgrade. For {{Icon|type=thieving|Chef}} specifically, the {{ItemIcon|Pig}} and {{ItemIcon|Leprechaun}} [[Summoning#Synergies|synergy]] can be used to completely negate damage from failed attempts. As with {{Icon|Combat}}, {{PrayerIcon|Protect Item}} can be used to prevent the loss of any equipment upon death.


Failed pickpocket attempts will stun the player for 3 seconds and deal damage to them up to the target's Max Hit; damage dealt this way can be reduced by any damage reduction provided by [[Equipment]], [[Pets]] and {{PrayerIcon|Stone Skin}}. Damage taken while Thieving is potentially lethal, although this damage can be offset by consuming [[food]] manually, or automatically with the [[Shop#Auto_Eat|Auto Eat]] upgrade. Specifically for {{Icon|type=thieving|Chef}}, the {{ItemIcon|Pig}} and {{ItemIcon|Leprechaun}} [[Summoning#Synergies|synergy]] can be used to completely negate damage from failed attempts.
Damage dealt by failed thieving attempts does not currently count as an Enemy Attack for the purposes of expending prayer points or potion charges, yet they still provide their respective damage reduction or item protection effects. This is not the case for {{ItemIcon|Yak}} tablets however, which are expended each time the player takes damage. While Yak does provide damage reduction while thieving and consumes a tablet during each stun, [[Synergy|synergies]] involving {{ItemIcon|Centaur}}, {{ItemIcon|Witch}}, and {{ItemIcon|Minotaur}} do not apply or expend tablets, as no ranged, melee, or magic enemy is being fought.
 
The time spent stunned may be reduced by 25% while either {{TotH}} {{AgilityIcon|Rooftop Climb}} is active and/or {{TotH}} {{ItemIcon|Masquerade Mask|Masquerade Masks}} are equipped. Additionally, there is a chance to avoid stuns entirely while any of the {{ItemIcon|Thieving Shorts}}, {{ItemIcon|Grappling Hook}}, or {{ItemIcon|Superior Thieving Skillcape}} are equipped.
 
== Areas ==
The chance of obtaining each area unique drop following a successful pickpocket is <math>\frac{1}{500}</math> or 0.20%. Each area unique drop is rolled separately, so it is possible to receive multiple area unique drops from a single action. The chance of obtaining area unique drops is tripled when the 95% Thieving [[#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery Pool checkpoint]] is active.
