Hi, in many of the builds I see people putting points in pickpocket. Is the reason for this to steal from other players? Or, does this skill help in other ways? When building rogues I have neve put points there so I was curious.
Peace, John.

Yes there are many bad guys that carry heal pots just like we do, a character with enough points in PP are able to steal these. It makes the Lloth run go by much faster. Just think for every Heal you steal that is like dealing 500+ points of damage

DOH! I was up til 2:30 on a Lolth run of all things and only got 4 hours of sleep... I will have to factor it in on my next character. Thanks for such a quick answer!
Peace, John.

It has three uses: 1. Steal the heals off the Drow making them a bit easier. 2. There is supposedly loot reputed to be only accessible by pickpocketing the holder. 3. As a possible defense against other players, should a need for such a defense ever arise.

and 4) talk to someone around town, that person will mention that pick pocket is needed to access a certain secret....

2. There is supposedly loot reputed to be only accessible by pickpocketing the holder. That sounds fun, any chance on getting a location on where to try this? Or is it one of those secrets?

Another good use for pp is to steal your weapons back when you got disarmed by vrocks i.e.

Is pp allowed on other players? I was playing with a group one time and suspected that someone pick pocketed me. I asked them what was going on but they just laughed. Again is it allowed? At least I will know for the next time...
BTW I read the lengthy thread about pvp pp but it was so long I jumped to the end and did not really see anything "official" concerning pp. Also are you allowed to kill another player with due cause or just report to DM?
