Stealing

Main / Skills / Thievery / Stealing

Description

Stealing is the skill used when trying to pick up or drag items in houses or on deeds where you do not have the proper permissions to do so. In these cases instead of the usual 'take' command in the menu, you'll see a 'steal' command. You may need to toggle off the 'Lawful' as well as 'Faithful' states in order to be able to perform the action. Higher stealing skill reduces the risk of guards noticing you.

Restrictions

Non-premium players may not use the steal skill, as it requires at least 20.50 body control.

In Freedom stealing is disabled and instead gives the message: That would be very bad for your karma and is disallowed on this server.

Messages

When Body Control rises over 20.50, you'll see the message "You now feel confident enough to steal things" in the Event window.

When stealing, any players in local range will get the message [08:37:12] You notice Mattowns trying to do something fishy!
