So I decided to take up the job of a Thief...

[Fat_Smurf]

Also do you lose less exp when you die as job compared to dieing while training?

Yup.

Not sure of the actual percentage, but it's like 0.15%

pretty low I can't rememebr exactly but it was around 30k xp at lvl 76-78

Don't be a theif if you're not lv 80.

Not true.

Start when you like, help higher lvls locate trade runs, share the profit when in thief town.

Everyone knows my thief name in xian, but soon i will semi-retire then i may give away my best strategies etc.

As for advice you can take away.... learn who the most active thieves are on your server. Write down thier ign.... when you see trades leaving the cities or even passing through your grinding area, PM them.... they will be thankful.

I personally have several people that randomly pm me.... some are high lvl some are low... but if they ever want a share of the profit or experince, they get it.

I often have traders and hunters ask me 'how did you know we were here'... the simple answer is that lvl 35 noob you past 1 min ago told me.

Obviously as a high lvl thief the best information comes from other thief friends and your own guild/union.

The worst thing that you can do as a thief is to screw your own party members... never do this... so many noobs think they can get away with leaving the party after the goods have been picked up by thier transport... or when back at the thief den. Yes, you will get the loots to yourself on that occasion, but if you do that in my party i either tell a hunter friend where you are, kill you myself... or the worst thing, ban you from any thief party i have in the future. This is not good because all the top thieves know each other and therefore trying to get in a thief party at anytime will be difficult for you.

Above all tho... dont leave any Survivors, always help your party dont leave them to hunters on thier own... and most of all have fun!

even if im a trader under 40 doiing a trade run of more then 1 star, i tell me guild our situation, then tell them my alias, they come, kill the hunters/ other traders let me be XD

yea lol haite i hunt for my guild ^_^ pm me if any thiefs give u probs
