- (Guest) (12 posts) Mar-10-02, 06:20 PM (Pacific) "On pickpocketing and equipment..." I'm having trouble pickpocketing despite a boosted skill of 95, 100 DEX and 82 speed. I might be swiping too much stuff from the merchants, and the only really good thing I got was a stun rod from Sadok right after I bought one (ouch). Question one: do npc's become less suspicious over time and allow you to PP even more? I would like to get some nice mantis armor that Antone supposedly hands out like candy for some. Question two: if I PP an NPC of all his things, will he have more stuff again at a later time? This is PP, not shoplifting so it would be great to know, so I can get enough mantis armor for two. Question three: by the way, does anyone have a list of what Ferro sells? I haven't gotten to him yet but it would be great to know.   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

You would have to track down an older patch in order to take advantage of pickpocketing at it's finest.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Personally, I have no problem with it because a) it makes things more realistic, b) it's more of a challenge and c) it's the way the game was intended to be in the first place, according the Curries. 2) Yes, after 24 hours he will have more stuff to PP but it's unlikely you'll get enough mantis armor this way for two. It's easier to buy it legitimately and with the Alchemy merging skill, it's quite easy to build up a lot of cash in a short time. 3) His custom items are Mirror Armor, Vampire Chain and Ivory Blade. He also sells things like the Infinity Helm, Snakeskin Boots, and the Cloak of Many Colors. My advice is to have at least 500K before visiting Ferro because you'll need it. His prices are steep and he has lots of good stuff. To the best of my knowledge, no one has published a list of everything he sells.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
