This post will probably sound like a whine or a complaint. If you aren't into that kind of thing, feel free to skip it.

I'd just like to say that trapper thieves still aren't quite there yet. The knockout traps are maybe 1/10th as effective as a good blackjacking, and I'd still take weaponbutt blackjack over a knockout trap anyway. I spent a lot of time searching for better and better trap components, but they didn't seem to make a lot of difference from what I could see.

I liked waylay, if for nothing else than putting a good scare into people. Other than that, I really wish I had put my thief points into a different path. Weapontrip + cheapshot turned out to be a foolish goal for me, since weapontrip was often wildly unreliable.

Anyway, this thief was my third rogue attempt after doing a thug and pickpocket. I liked being able to kill people, but ended up doing it mostly with cheap flee/knife tactics. I figured I could probably make a decent Maran, but after waiting 100+ hours to get interviewed I was fairly discouraged with the task I was sent on. I guess I just caught the fearless leader on a bad day, or else I wasn't that interesting.

Anyway, everybody I spent time with died out long before I pulled the trigger, so good luck to everybody else's new incarnations. I'm already hard at work on crafting my next "ideal thief".

because you wanted to hurt me. Good luck with your next.

Good luck with the next ideal thief.
