The Introduction
All right lets kick this guide off with a small intro into the stat of thieving. Thieving is a members only stat, may require lots of food(may be free or not free), and can also be very frustrating.

The Beginning
To start thieving there isn't any requirements, but a few things I suggest. These items are gloves of silence(increases chances of not getting caught while pickpocketing), tolerance for getting caught, food cakes will do just find(can steal more later on), light weight armor (boots of lightness, spotted/spottier cape and penance gloves if you aren't using gloves of silence or aren't pickpocketing). For more information on how to get these light weight items check out my "Mining Pure ess Guide."

The First few Levels
Now thieving in the beginning you don't have much of a choice; all you can thieve from levels 1-5 is men/women. You will have to pickpocket them 49 times for level 5. This should only take 10-20minutes max (if you are slow). At level 5, you should start doing cake stalls. Once you are level 15, go do HAM members. Remember cake stalls remain good experience until 40 thieving.(would take 2303 times stealing from cake stall from 5-40) I HIGHLY SUGGEST DOING THIS AND BANKING YOUR CAKES. If you bank your cakes, you'll have plenty of food for later levels.
If you are going to thieve from cake stalls stand as show in the picture below.


An ok Thief
You are now 40 thieving from any of the methods above. It's time for master farmers but don't get to excited you wont be here long. (I only suggest farmers level 40-42 because you can get better experience at guards at 42.) It would take you 194 thieves from master farmer for 42.

Suggested spot to thieve Master Farmers from
So you've now got 42 thieve, lets move on to guards; Out of my experience, I personally think guards are most frustrating things to pickpocket. They catch you all the time, but are still great experience. If you are going to thieve from guards,(I suggest this) you should thieve in Ardogue. In Ardogue, there are many guards as well places to steal food. You can do guards from 42-45(344 times) or 42-55.(2605 times) If you get 45 thieve from guards, you can go do sorcerers garden mini game. This mini game gives pretty good thieve experience and is a good break from pickpocketing. It also requires the completion of the quest "Prince Ali Rescue." I will go in more detail about sorcerers garden later in the guide.


Suggested to thieve guards here, for you can go steal cakes when needed.

55 Thieve and Then Some
Now once you are 55 Thieving, it's time for knight's. Knights give 50 GP(gold penny's) each successful pickpocket. Doing knight's 55-99 you would make 7 million GP. Knight's are said to be the 2cd fastest way to 99 thieving.(Suggested for skillers) Now if you want the most profit out of 99 thieving, you would get 55-70 thieving from knight's. A total of a woping 6,758 times from knight's. This may take a little while but if you are truly determined it should take no longer then 2 days. Paldins give an unbelievable 80gp and 2 chaos runes. This is like 200gp an thieve. Now if you did paladins 70-99, you'd make 20mil+ and thieve paladin's 81,034 times. Now don't that sound like fun? If you are a skiller, I wouldn't suggest doing Paldins.

Lock Knight's inside a room and move them into a corner. This makes Thieving much more efficient.

Great Experience Different Methods
Another way of thieving is called black jacking. This methods was introduced by the quest, "The Feud". To start this quest you need to talk to Ali south of duel arena. In this method you lure someone away, knock them out, then pickpocket them. You need 65 thieving to do this to a Menaphite Thug which is the only good experience if your black jacking while many people think PP(Pyramid Plunder) us fastest experience level 71-99; it isn't. It's only fastest 91-99 getting around 250k exp per hour.(Will be mentioned later in guide) Black jacking at levels low as 70, you can get 200k experience an hour or as low as 50k experience per hour. Black jacking is only good experience if you are good at it. I personally was never good at black jacking. The max I could get an hour was around 120k. Yes, this is some pretty good experience, but I strongly hated doing this so I continued with knight's.

Pyramid Plunder?
Pyramid Plunder is considered one of the best ways to train thieving. At level 71 Thieve you can get 120-150k experience an hour while at 91 you can get 250k experience an hour. In order to do pyramid plunder, you must have at- least 21 thieving. I suggest having the Pharaohs Scepter so you can teleport to PP. Even if you are a level 3, you can still do plunder. Yes, it may be a little hard, but I have done it.There is a bank beside Plunder that requires the quest "Contact" to do, if you would like to do the quest; go here.


Skillers, don't feel left out. If you are going to be doing PP I suggest having started Itchians little helper so you can take the secret rock in and out of the city. Doing this lets you bank your Sceptre so if you die, you don't lose it.

Bank that skillers should use.

This is not my video, nor do I take credit for this video. I am purely posting here so people know how to do plunder.

Sorcerers Garden?
Sorcerers Garden is a small thieving mini game.(You can also receive Farming exp. from it.. In order to play this mini game, you need to have finished "Prince Ali Rescue." This game is about getting Sq'irk fruit and making them into juice. There are four different gardens to choose from. All requires different levels. All garden levels, experience, amount of fruit shown below
Winter Garden:1 Thieving, 5 fruit(one glass), 350 experience each glass
Spring Garden:25 Thieving, 4 fruit(one glass), 1,350 experience each glass
Autumn Garden:45 Thieving, 3 fruit(one glass),2,350 experience each glass
Summer Garden:65Thieving, 2 fruit(one glass), 3k experience each glass

Each of the gardens give fruit that you can get from the tree in the center of the maze, but if you get caught you'll be teleported out of the maze. If you are going to do this mini game, I don't suggest starting until 45 Thieving.

Your inventory should be all beer glasses, 1 pestel and motar, and the rest light weight equipment Spotted/Spottier Cape, Boots of Lightness, Penance Gloves, and Agility Armor

The Skill Cape
Finally after all the hard work of pickpocketing, stall stealing, plundering, avoiding mages, black jacking and more. You are finally there! You get one of the least common and rather good looking skill capes. There is still less thieve capes then fish capes, wc capes, attack capes etc. and they are not that common at all. You can buy the skill cape in rouges den from Martin Thwait.

Tips and Tricks
Very well known but if you do not want to accidentally attack what your thieving from weild any type of bow without ammo.
Don't concentrate on only thieving do something else why your thieving. Even listen to music etc.
Switch off how you train every time you get sick of training thieving a certain way.
Don't listen when other people tell you "you can't do it" because they're most likely mad because you got higher levels or they tried and gave up.
Try having an account your not training thieve on and when your bored you can get on the account to train strength or whatever type of pure it is so you don't lose where you were training thieve.
If you are plundering get a group to plunder with. With about 3-4 people you get better experience because doors don't change as much. In world 66 you might have a big group but doors always change.
World 66 is thieving world.

Thank you for reading my 99 thieving guide.:nuts: If you got any suggestions if I over looked something etc. let me know so I can fix it.>_<

If any images are stolen, you'll be reported for ripping them which is a ban.​

 

Just add some more details, go into depth on some of the most important aspects of thieving. Nice guide though, 7/10.

What about menaphite thugs...u can thieve them at lvl 65 and they give 220k-240k per hour + from levels 65-99, you make 5m

 

dark if you read the guide they are included

 

ok guide 6.5/10

 

Awesome Guide 10/10. Went over all the aspects of achieving 99 Thieving. I will definitely be using this.

 

You diddn't add some information, which is frustrating. I personally tried to use your banking method only to see that you must have started or finished a quest. If you are going to show methods, make sure to add in that you may need certain quests. Otherwise great guide.

 

well if your talking about the bank for plundering for skillers i mentioned that you needed to start itchians little helper in middle of guide

 

Great guide!
