Can the Blackjack be used against other players in the Wilderness?
The Blackjack can be used against other players, however you no longer have the option to knock an opponent out. When using the Blackjack in combat you will randomly daze your opponents for a short period of time.
After stealing from a stall, how long do you have to wait before you can speak to the owner again?
You have to wait ten minutes before the trader will talk to you after stealing from the stall.
I have heard that there are chests that give Nature Runes as a reward once searched. I can’t find them, where are they?
You can find one of these chests near the East entrance to Ardougne just before the market place. Try looking in the building to the South of the path.
You can find another one of these chests on the second floor of the house just North of Ardougne church. You will need a Thieving level of 28 to successfully steal from these chests.
Always remember to search for traps first!
How do I start thieving?
Pickpocket men and women. There are plenty in Lumbridge, Varrock, Falador and other cities and towns.
Am I less likely to be caught thieving if I wear special equipment and stand behind my victim?
Generally, Thieving is only affected by your thieving level. In the HAM area, though, you are less likely to be caught thieving if you dress as a cultist.
You can also use the Hunter skill to get gloves of silence, which greatly increase the chance of pickpocketing successfully.
