Overview

Waiting in the shadows, planning where they'll strike next, the mischievous Thieves are a force to reckon with. Swift and powerful, few can keep up with a Thief's attack speed and power, whether they're slashing their way in battle with a sharp dagger, or striking from afar with a bow. Striking them down isn't easy either, coupling their high flee with the ability to become invisible and poison their pursuers, Thieves have only magic to fear.

A Thief just wouldn't be a Thief if they weren't able to steal from their enemies, which makes them in turn quite adept at item gathering and money making. If the player decides to play as a Thief, frantic battles and high degrees of fun are guaranteed. They're also a very good choice as first characters, since in the beginning they don't have to rely as heavily on equipments to be able to fight consistently.

From job level 50 and base level 50, Thieves are given the choice to take the trial to join the mysterious order of the Assassins or continue plotting ever more daring crimes as a Rogue.

Job Changing

Once you are Job Level 10, head off to the Pyramids, which are northwest of Morroc. At the pyramid moc_ruins58159, enter, and head for the middle of the map to the Thief Guild moc_prydb145130. Once inside, follow the hallway down and take the left gate (90, 115). Talk to the Thief Guide and tell her you want to be a Thief. She tells you to talk to the man next to her. Talk to the Thief Guildsman, who changes your job to Thief and rewards you with a Novice Main Gauche [3].

Alternatively, after attaining Job Level 10, advance to a Thief class at Criatura Academy (izlude 125, 257 or 130, 257) in Izlude.
