This article is about training the Thieving skill. For the skill itself, see Thieving.

Training

Leveling is largely 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 XP rates as well as success chance. Farmer is also worth pickpocketing even after higher XP targets are available. This gives the player a large base of seeds to use with Farming. Finally, if the player's Prayer is high enough, Protect Item and Safeguard / Stone Skin can be used without costing any prayer points.

This spreadsheet can be used to calculate your XP per hour on individual targets, as well as GP per hour. Make a copy of the document and fill in your own details.

Stealth

Because of the unique Stealth and Perception mechanics (please see the main page for more details), it is useful to increase your Stealth as much as possible in order to maximise your success chance.

Food

Food is highly recommended for anything with a less than 100% success rate. Higher Hitpoints 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. Auto Eat is useful for idling, but if the enemy's Max Hit is higher than your Auto-Eat threshold, it is still possible to die. Your current Auto-Eat threshold can be found by hovering over the Auto-Eat icon. To reduce the target's Max Hit, wear equipment that provides Damage Reduction.
