Blackjacks – Lure and Knockout

During The Feud quest, adventurers can learn a new way of thieving. A way where they will take minimal damage and not get caught. You can get your hands on a blackjack during the feud, or after completing the ‘rogue trader’ miniquest for Ali M, or by buying one from the trader near the kebab shop.

Right-clicking with a blackjack wielded gives the option ‘Lure’. If you lure your target away from prying eyes, you should then go ahead and ‘Knock out’ the target, leaving a safe pickpocket with no chance of taking damage. Please remember, there is always a chance of you not knocking the target out.

Thieving from the people shown in the table below does not require a blackjack, however if you lure them and successfully knock them out, your pickpocketing success will be guaranteed. You will not be able to knock someone out if you do not have the Thieving level required to pickpocket them. Successfully knocking someone out will give the Thieving experience shown below:

H.A.M Dungeon

The H.A.M dungeon is located north west of Lumbridge, and is a perfect area for low (or any) level thieves to train their art. To get in, find the trapdoor in the damaged house, marked by an exclamation mark on the mini-map.

Right click on the trapdoor and select ‘Pick Lock’. If you fail to pick the lock, simply try again, and eventually it will open.
Picking the lock earns 3.8 thieving experience and access to the caves.

 
Buying a stethoscope for 10 coins from Martin Thwait will help increase your chance of successfully cracking the safe (which will earn you 70 experience)

If you are successful in looting the safes, you can obtain coins or even gems.

Failure in cracking the safe will trigger a trap, and you will take damage.

‘Minor’ Helpers:

The Bandits Brew will help, as drinking it will temporarily increase your thieving level by one. The drink can be bought from the bandits in the the bandit camp for 650gp.

Gloves of silence, made by the fancy-dress store owner in Varrock - if you have two lots of black kebbit fur and 600gp - will increase the chance of success when pickpocketing. A warning however - the gloves will eventually wear out if you are caught pick-pocketing too often!

Training Hints and Tips

• When pickpocketing NPC’s, try to lure and trap them in a room to limit their wandering.
• Find a quiet world so that there are no other players trying to kill the NPC that you are trying to thieve from!
