Pick Pocket Policy: Mobs you don't own.

Clearly only seeing it from one side as well..

What's a rogue supposed to do to get gems for jewelry upgrades? Are there typically groups around to assist in farming these materials? Will the 'other side' group up with the rogue to help him?

The status quo is forcing the rogues into this underhanded style of play.

I would be annoyed if a rogue was pickpocketing mobs while I was specifically farming for plat, but in a group setting the amount of plat we make is a joke anyway so I don't mind at all.

What? Rogues behaving... Rogue-ishly? *gasp*

I don't know how you think you can justify stealing from YOUR OWN GUILD it's not like a rogue contributes anything but dps. I hope those guys smartened up and gave your ass the boot.

for people saying to bad casters rogues cant solo, to fucking bad rogues cant solo go roll a caster to do your farming.

Yeah, because playing another class to improve your class makes a lot of sense.

It wouldn't be so bad if groups were more common. Which is probably why rogues without a solo class are doing this in the first place.

ooo i stole it right into the guild leader's inventory =P yahh

im a bad guy. how about the people who got full suits of planes gear and then left an hour later? they should show back up to the guild and hand us some money, right?

bah, non-issue =P i steal your stuff, sucka. i dont need to roll a caster

[RKromwell]

Only time I have a problem with pick pocket is when we are in a group. If you are picking the mob dry, folks that depend on split to make money are getting screwed. If I am in a group for five hours and only make two plat, all in copper, there is something wrong.

Pick-pocketing should follow the same rule as mob tagging: if someone else attacked it first, it's theirs and you leave it alone unless they ask for help. If I were in a position to enforce rules, I would consider PPing from another guy's mob the same as KSing, and it doesn't matter one bit how much rogues struggle to farm. At least they have a way of doing it, just go for the mobs that aren't currently being killed by somebody else. Warriors can't farm either, but you wouldn't accept them actively trying to steal your kill just because the class can't farm on their own. As was always the case, playing certain classes means resigning yourself to the fact that your income will either come from grouping and winning the rolls, or from farming with another character. Using the weakness of your class as an excuse is idiotic, and PPing seafuries or sand giants while others are in the process of killing them is precisely the same as KSing.
