The ability to steal stuff, off someones back!

Post by ViciousGamer04 »

Now this would obviously be a very risky endevaour but my thought was that there should be a skill to literally steal something off someone's back. As in, their equips. This should require a skill in it's own and perhaps certain types of equips that are hard to make but they could literally rip the stuff right off the persons back and run off with it. Bahaha, would make for some interesting experiences.

Random Nub Farmer: "mai god, he stole mai scythe"

Warrior Guy: "Haha, hold up a sec." *whips out sword* "brb."

Random Nub Thief "Oh hai there..." *notices sword" "oh mai godddd' *blood spattering and loud screams*

*Warrior guy returns scythe*

Random Nub Farmer: "Why's it all bloody..."

I would think he means without knocking the victim out cold. It can be argued that some kind of pick-pocketing skill might make sense.

His little dialog seems to be of a mugging though.

Yes. Something to that sort. I'm not sure that it's a need atm but pickpocketing would bring more realism to the game imo.

Lol?

it's about some lowly farmer getting pick-pocketed by a thief and a warrior guy in their village getting revenge and re-obtaining the scythe that was stolen.

pick pocket happened prior to the dialog. The opening is the farmer complaining about something that happened (not specifying that it was pick pocketed).

Also... pick pocketing a scythe out of someone's hands? I reckon you need a different word for that
