Talk:Artful Pocketer

Reverse?
Does reverse pickpocketing count towards this? I keep getting caught stealing from people with 85 sneak, and a stealth boy.--Jolipinator 19:05, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

No, it doesn't. I've changed the page to reflect that. I'm not entirely sure on this, but it seems like Luck might be a factor in pickpocketing. Some NPC's also seem to be much better at detecting pickpockets than others.2.2 Dog 18:23, May 6, 2011 (UTC)

Not sure of Luck, could very well be. What I've noticed is the value of the item your stealing seems to play into it a good bit. When it comes to stealing ammo or crappy knives/machetes it's easy. When it comes to stealing weapons the harder it is. It took me two or three tries to get the ammo from Sterling. La Longue Carbine took hundreds. Not sure if weight plays into it either. Haven't seen anyone really carrying heavy, worthless items. Not sure if the NPCs perception ties into it as well. --Pyoobez 01:39, July 16, 2011 (UTC)
