StayFrosty05 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 (edited) Though my Dovahkin is neither Thief nor Assassin, he is stealth based and cunning and devious in battle....I want to build up his Pick Pocketing Skills without him stealing anything....I want to be able to use the Pick Pocketing for him to be able to reverse Pick Pocket all manner of nasty poisons and/or Disarm opponents....The skill needed to Disarm is fairly high...Does anyone have any suggestions for me as to how to boost his Pick Pocketing skills up without resorting to having to remove items (theft) whilst practicing the skill to boost it up?....Suggestions and advice would be deeply appreciated....Thank you.

CaptainRC Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Well, the female beggar in Windhelm will train you in pickpocketing... at a price, of course. However, if you want practical experience, the next time you go to a bandit lair, pickpocket them first before killing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the Pick Pocket trainer can raise it, but only so far without practical application and I have thought about the Bandits, the concern I have with them is I am pretty sure if they are pick pocketed first, the items then get tagged as 'stolen' in the Dovahkins Inventory...as he can't deal with Fences, I guess his only real option would be to forgo selling the loot and just have to drop it instead...but yeah, that may be the only way to achieve it....is a shame really.....Thank you Captain.... :happy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here comes the important part: I don't know if this will increase your skill or not!!! It is just a theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have been thinking along those lines myself....it really doesn't look like I have any option but to steal at first, just to get those numbers up and hopefully it will still build once my Dovahkin just starts reverse pick pocketing instead.
