General Information[edit]

  • Has low attack power and armor but very high agility.
  • Dodging and rolling is easy, as is lining up to backstab enemies (bonus damage).
  • Their insanely high Luck means you will get plenty of item drops and usually not be at a shortage of herbs.
  • However, while the starting Buckler and Dagger are fast, they don't provide much in the way of attack power or damage reduction, and due to low Strength Thiefs cannot readily use any of the other equipment that is found frequently in the beginning of the game.
  • Thieves do have the highest starting Soul Level , which gives them an advantage over other classes early in the game, though it is more expensive to level up from the start.
