Didnt anyone of you notice that he was asking wut str, dex, and con affected with the thief, he didnt ask what race was better... just wut each stat the abilities were dependant on....

I agree. Why gnome thieves?
Not that I might have one in my account or anything.
I thought the thief looked interesting.
And I bought it pretty cheap.
If I had it.

Why gnomes? Stats suck.

RACIST!!





Anyway, somebody said he chose dwarves because you can't 'power train' anymore. What does this mean exactly?

power train: give some of your low lvl dude huge amount of gold an get it to die to some monster an then steal the gold from the monster .

you can't power train anymore? when/how did this happen?

[Tony]

After reading all the post, I STILL don't know which race to go with.

[TimmyRamone]

Why don't you just get one of both?

[Tony]

Ahead of you buddy, making two thieves and I think I'm going to TRY and play them at the same time. I was gonna ask about that stradegy but I had already made one post. Gotto take things one at a time, and thats rolling the damn dwarf lol

[alone]

Rather than be worried about double posting (glad you didn't), edit your post

There's nothing wrong with running them both at the same time- I actually find that at higher levels, my dwarf (yes, only one..) levels much faster than my Halflings or Human.

'They' (yes I said they) found out about power training and considered it an easy way out of getting arch thieves, you could just stick as much gold as you wanted on a monster, lets say 10 mill. I don't know how much a thief could steal from a monster holding 10 mill in 1 stam but for each one gold you steal, you gain 5 exp. 10 mill times 5 pod is approximately 50 mill exp. You could arch a thief in 1 day if you had that much gold... I believe so.

Gnome thieves are cool, mine is, with his awesome 3.1k pk count he hits avg of 170-230, which does the job

Me and andy, (Eternyte) Had a little test for a few hours, we brought every race of thief to the arena,

Human

Dwarf

Gnome

Halfling

And you want to know what hit the best and commonly hardest?

all were 4 stat level 30 thiefs,

The gnome hit for 170-220, (Armageddon)

Human hit for 220-250 (Mythical)

Dwarf hit for 130-280 (Repulse)

Halfling hit for 200-250 (Trust)

Thats the average hits we got hitting things for 2 hours in the arena thats the final results..so that might help you.

Even if Gnomes are not the best race as Thieves, sometimes it is just nice to be different.

Killing monsters is much quicker than stealing gold.
