Im just forewarning you, do NOT become a thief, its not worth it. They have nothing special. Be a warmie that can spit a lightning bolt and kill you in one spit!! Who can beat that???!!
I think we should be able to steal someones tongue or something.
steal (persons) tongue.
You reach into (Persons) mouth and rip their tongue right out!
They fall to the ground bleeding from the mouth, and slowly dieing from blood loss.
But im serious the thieves guild is now the weakest guild I believe.

Sniping= deadly attack move with LX available to thieves and rangers. Add our own special sauce to the bolt, makes it even better.
Backstab= one of the deadliest and most potent attacks in the game. Now that backs are a critical area, it's even deadlier. Again, special sauce makes it even better.
Stalking= I can stalk room to room in crossing with a 1 sec Rt. Tell me another guild that can do that.
Stealing= I can steal someone's coins and/or gems, and be back in the shadows and away before they can prep a spell or get a weapon to attack me with.
If that makes us weak, well then, I guess I'm a weakling. But, those that I've left dead or impoverished in my path would likely argue with you on that.

"weakest" is a relative term.
While it's true, we don't have the immediate mass killing power of magic or the utility of magic being able to do anything, anytime.
We have our strong points. Those that are able to play to those and avoid our weak points do fine.
Though we'll see what happens with the hiding rewrite and stealing rewrite. Things change..........

>>when a 20th circle warmie can spit a lightning bolt out of there mouth and kill a 70th thief in one blow to the chest with it.....isnt that a lil crazy you think?
There isn't a 20th warmie out there that can kill me in one cast, and I'm no where near 70th. If they killed a 70th Thief with one cast and they are 50 circles below him is because that Thief sucks and didn't train his skills to his best advantage.
Subai
PS- They don't spit the bolt out of their mouth, they call it down from the sky.

Well thats a logical arguement. I wasnt aware when I stalked into a room and advanced a critter that I had let him know I hid either. Yet they still retreat :p
Was just pointing out something that truely is nullifying us in a time of others having their guilds more defined. If you dont understand what I meant by that, basically, we are the stealth guild yet players and critters are able to retreat from us reguardless of whether they have seen us or not.
Just something I would like to see changed. Thankfully Damissak did mention this is something he would also like to see changed, so maybe its on the agenda.

Eh? I'm just talking on a character vs character basis here.
If I'm being stalked, and I think I'm being stalked, just having an idea, I'm going to move away from where I'm standing.
Though, I think there should be a chance that you 'retreat' to melee on the hidden person. That'd be fun. After all, you're not quite certain where they are.

A combat theef is the most over powered character in the game
Poison - no gobal caps
Backstab - over 200 ranks it's unstoppable
Inv Kookie - Just plain sick
Weapon Kookie - goes way over the global cap
Snipe - Just plain crazy with poison <wince>
Hamstring and the knockout moves - with over 200 brawling these moves are just nasty also
A combat theef is something to be feared and dominate PVP if they know how to fight.
Just ask Subaitart, Laros, Soim, Bris, Eyoni, Willy or Paleth to give ya a demo

<<A combat theef is the most over powered character in the game>>
Powerful in our element, yes. Out of it we are very vulnerable.
<<Poison - no gobal caps>>
It's ... P-O-I-S-O-N :) It's supposed to be lethal. To get poisoned I have to be able to hit you. To be able to hit you I have to be a decent fighter. If you think I can walk up to Galain and give him lethal poison you're sadly mistaken.
<<Backstab - over 200 ranks it's unstoppable>>
Wrong. I have well (a lot) over 200 and there are plenty of people who can stop it.
<<Inv Kookie - Just plain sick>>
Shard Magic Shop has a spiffy refractive field rune you may find useful.
<<Weapon Kookie - goes way over the global cap>>
Which will soon be put under the cap.
<<Snipe - Just plain crazy with poison>>
You poor thing. Should I get you a pacifier? :-P
<<Hamstring and the knockout moves - with over 200 brawling these moves are just nasty also>>
Ah , you don't know what you're talking about on this one.
<<A combat theef is something to be feared and dominate PVP if they know how to fight.>>
The game isn't built around PVP.
<<Just ask Subaitart, Laros, Soim, Bris, Eyoni, Willy or Paleth to give ya a demo>>
Good to be a thief, eh? ;)
<<I think that's exactly what Webs was sayin, that there are no checks in place for poison and so it's very powerful, not that it exceeded any checks, but that they weren't there to begin with. Just an observation.>>
Read the above. There is a very big check. I have to be able to hit you to deliver it. If I can't hit you I can't poison you.

In addition, poison is not a skill or ability you just 'get' in the normal sense of the word. It takes time to create, and to be able to make the very powerfull poison you speak of, the pioneers had to spend countless hours experimenting. And they don't share their secrets easily. (A good thing, for you guys.)

Another point, more applicable to the absolute clueless: I have no idea youre there but decide to walk across the meadow to get out of the sun.... and coincidentally away from your stalking location. I see that as more common even. Just because youre stalking me doenst mean you can always follow my random movements. And if there has been combat, any critter/character is going to be on the move trying to find their hidden attacker. They might not see you, but still walk the opposite direction looking for you.
