what do i do to thief properly?

Do it with groups...

no no i mean how do u spawn thieves on the mercs? im still new to this

Lol, could someone please write a 1* popping guide?

Jubbaca, spawning thiefs is a baaad thing to do *shakes his finger like your grandma*

He said mercs, that means hunters not traders....


You can't spawn NPC thieves at your own will, and the NPC theives you are going to spawn will be hostile on you...

Attack them yourself, it's the most fair way.

well when i said merc i meant merchants.. but yea.. i try to thieve merchants but i look retarded cuz thieves arent spawning...

what does 1 star popping mean??

ok first of all, your too low leveled, any hunter will kick your ass and "merchants" are your level.

Second of all, your being an a55hole for trying to 1 star pop. This forum does not support that. A real theif finds 2* caravans and up, and HIMSELF kills the caravan (or with other REAL PEOPLE, NOT NPC THIEVES)

3rd of all, I hate you for being an a55hole.

Here comes another locked or deleted thread.. xD! Dop, use the search button found on top of the page and I am SURE you will find a grand explaination of that.

Juw, what you are asking for a tutorial for is not allowed by the forum rules, it is clearly explained in the sticky. Here is how you thief properly: You take a thief suit, a camel and a bandit return scroll. Run around Jangen and Donwhang in your thief suit until you find a trader. If you click the trader and start attacking horay, if not, move on. If that is not clear enough for you, you can always use the search button!

dont 1* pop, just dont
thieves cannot summon other thieves at will
DO THE DIRTY WORK YOURSELF U LAZY...person!

You see a 1* coming.

You are on your trade horse, in a harmony circle, or just running around.

You follow them closely, your thiefs will spawn and will go straight for the trader/hunters (not yourself unless your all by your own somehere with no one else for the thiefs to attack).

High levels love to use this on level 20 - 30 players, usualy the thiefs do 3*s spawning 3 level 42 - 62+ thiefs, their attacks can range from 1000 to 3000 depending on the level of the thief.

For the traders being attacked by these thiefs your best chances of staying alive are to quickly get off your trade horse and make a harmony circle, thus preventing you from being attacked by your own or others thiefs.

Thx for your time to read my guide, ill be happy to educate you more and how to pop, and how to prevent popping.

I hope both sides of the triangle are happy

Ummmmm wrong!! Your best chances of staying alive when your a lvl 20 and the NPC thief is lvl 4x or greater. Is to Zerk and run. A lvl 20 can not repel lvl 4x mobs in a harmony circle. As you said the range of attacks are 1k to 3k. A pure str lvl 20 does not have 3k HP. He'd be dead in one to two hits. And a pure int.......the NPC thief could just glare at him real mean like and *bap* he is dead.

*coming from a lvl 70 who loves popping noobs



the only way to stay alive as a noob running from someone popping is to be on a HORSE not a camel, and DO NOT let anyoen get ahead of you - if worste comes to worste play ferry games till the higher lvl gets bored. (usually doesnt take long lol)

If someone tries to pop on you and they're well above your lvl, do NOT get off of your horse, just run and mass pot it.

poping is cruel and unhumane and killed me 2ce with a boatload of special items stupid popers

If all else fails just abandon your horse and save your xp.

Before you get popped, you have a "Real" Thief following you,thats when you get off your horse and make a harmony circle (obviously you are level 23) That stops the poppers npc thiefs attacking, soon they will get sick of following you.

Zerking with a trade horse behind you isnt a smart move, 100m then, whoops we have to stop and wait.

Uhm, I only lose .20 from death by a thief (thats a player thief, not npc). So i'd rather not ditch my 5*, because thats just giving up too easy. Thx

Geesh, 3 quotes in arow, i should check more often.



VERY TRUE, also head for the ferrys and go back and forth, even if you have npc thiefs, they fortunatly dont know how to use the teleport

Notice I said if all else fails... also this is about if someone is trying to pop you while your trying a one star and how you might stay alive, we weren't talking about five star loads because obviously then the player thief would attack you...


No it doesn't...the higher player thief's npcs can still attack you.





Notice he says your best chances of staying alive while a NPC thief chases you, it implies that your horse is dead or about to die and your getting chased. So you zerk to run and save yourself...

Also you didn't need to triple post just to quote each one, you could have quoted all three in one post, like what i just did.
