− | I plan on sharing my knowledge as best I can in this wiki. If I make a mistake, don't harass me, just correct it! It is a wiki after all. As a hobby I help out in [http://www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia], so I know some basic editing stuff, but nothing complicated. If you have any tips, please post them in my talk page! Also if there is a page you would like to see added let me know.

− | == Rewen's Guide to Pilfering ==
| |
− | My skills in Shadowbane shine when I play my scout, and ever since I made my first one I have never felt that my main was anything but. It wasn't until a mentor of mine gave me some very intelligent words that I ventured into the world of the thief. He said "you know, Rewen, a good scout makes an excellant thief". It made a lot of sense. As a thief, you learn quickly how to make yourself subtle to those you intend to exploit, but the one class that you really have watch out for are the scouts, because, from the ground up, their purpose is to take away your most powerful weapon: stealth. Being a scout, you know all the tricks and all the little details you can use to your advantage to sniff out and reveal, cripple, or even kill other stealthers. That said, I would reccomend becoming a veteran scout to anyone who would want to be a good thief.
| |
− | | |
− | I should say this: thieves are called thieves because they were built to steal things. A lot of people are so concerned with simply killing that they don't even train peek or steal to GM. They're insane. I am not saying that thieves can't kill anything, but like a scout, it's not their primary function. Think of it like an open ended mission where the objective is simply to take advantage of a player or group of players in every way possible. This can include stealing from them, hitting them with bleeds and then hiding again to piss them off, or killing them if the situation calls for it.
| |
− | | |
− | === Your Template ===
| |
− | I must say I am very biased in race selection, but I find the most versitile race for thieves in an [[Aracoix]]. You can no longer loot from the sky (those were the days), but flight is still a survival tool I couldn't do without. Of course you can choose whatever race you want though, it's not going to prevent you from getting a lot of loot.
