  • -= Thieve's Guild =-

    If you are thinking on becoming a thief post here. If you have anything else thief related post it here.

    I am having trouble deciding, I want to be a thief, but I don't know what race to be. I was thinking about becoming a Hume Thief/Monk, or a Mithra Thief/Monk. I'm not sure yet, post your suggestions please.

    I'm planning on becoming on Mithra Thief/Monk personally. And then once I'm high enough, Mithra Ninja/Thief. I think both of those combos make really nice dodgers

        Yeah, nine out of ten people who have raised thief will tell you that it's the hardest job to raise, but it's one of the most rewarding in the end. They do very little damage, have little HP and defense, and the only thing they can rely on is their ability to dodge which doesn't always work out since they don't dodge all the time, so when you get hit you get hit hard. But, thieves get the best damage dealing ablities such as sneak attack and backstab at higher levels, not to mention the treasure hunter ability. Until you get to level 15 (sneak attack) thieves are scrawny little things.

            I'm gonna be a Mithra Theif/Beastmaster...

            I think its a cool idea...

            My other jobs would be...
            1. Ninja
            2. Monk
            3. Paladin
            and
            4. Dark Knight

            At least those four...

            Thx for the sig TenTako!!

              I think that it would be great to have a Theives Guild in the game...

              ...you know like a Linkshell or something like that...

                Yeah, being a thief is definitely not a walk in the park at lower levels. Even if you constantly check every monster before you fight it you occasionally find yourself getting mowed by lower monsters. One's defense just isn't there.

                The dodge thing is pretty good, especially once you have a few levels under your belt. But until you can begin to dish out some decent damage it will not save you.

                On the upside many parties would love to have you, especially after 15th level. With the treasure hunter and gil steal abilities you definitely add to the prosperity of any group. Sneak Attack is pretty funky too, and very useful in a party environment.

                It will be interesting to see a Thief/Ninja combo... or something there abouts. Then they'll be pesky ninja clans sprouting everywhere.

                  I've always wanted to be Mithra TH/?, but it just seemed so hard to level. My new resolution is to just level warrior to 18, then swithch to TH/War, I figure a two class char will have a better chance. Then I'm gonna take my thief to 30, and get Dark Knight, then take that as a main. I think it'd be really cool to have a cute little mithra with a huge sword, who can deliver sick damage, and dodge all attacks. Just my fantasies!

                    Some good advice may be to lvl WAR until lvl 18. Then switch to THF. So it will be easier as a THF/WAR. Thats just a thought.

                        Yeah, that would be a good idea... or Monk. The evasion abilities would blend well together.

                          I used to be really into the Thief/Monk thing, they have complimentary Claw technique usage, and you can boost hp and dodge stats, guess it just depends on where you want to go with your char. I figure there's no reason not to try out a few subs and see what you like I think WAR, MNK, RM and RNG, NIN would all be decent subs.

                          To the person who is RNG/TH, how is this combo? Do you ever play with TH/RNG?

                            I'm shooting for a Paladin/Thief combo. It will be hard, but I'll swallow my pride and ask people to help me level up in my early days...

                            By the way, the Paladin learns a few healing spells, right? Does that mean he is a hate generator as well as the "Taunt" ability? :sweat:

                              I'm gonna go with THF/MNK.I'll probably start out with a monk and once I'm able to get a subjob i'll switch back and forth between the two. . .

                              I want to try a couple other job like Redmage, Ranger, and Samurai and for all of those i'll sub theif
