[ecla]

1. Make sure 'Cautious Mode' is active
2. Click on the Quartermaster and it should do a sleight of hand attempt. Roll high!

[nathnathn]

it might be a bug or something but im just not getting the option even if i walk right behind him.

Same here, pretty sure it's because it selected a character that wasn't proficient in Sleight of Hand.

This..
Its working fine.

Tried with the same 4 characters, still didn't work. Solved it by swapping out one of my premade characters for a different one.

You need sleight of hand obviously, only ever done that part with a rogue myself.

[Jus' Chillin]

Yah, which is why I agree with nathnathn it must be a small bug. It put my Rogue in the first mission and wanted my Ranger in the fourth. Maybe because of a higher dex?

Still, a Paladin instead of a Ranger isn't a bad trade.

I have made very cookie cutter builds.. First was Pala, Ranger, Rogue, Wizard. My second was Fighter, Cleric, Rogue, Wizard.
Both times it chose the rogue for that segment.

Jan(21) Release still can't pickpocket with Rangerf +3 sleight of Hand

[Xeterog]

+3 sleight of hand? so, unless your ranger has a dex modifier of +1 (12 or 13 dex), this means the Ranger is not proficient with Slight of hand, which the game tells you that you have to be in order to pick pocket the guy.

(prof at level one is +2 to your roll, Dex of +1 will give you a +3, but it would be higher if your dex mod is higher, so if your dex mod is +3 (from a 16 dex), then being prof in the skill will give you a +5)

[Isterio]

Proficiency in Sleight of Hand and a value of +5.
I go into stealth mode and CAN'T pick pocket anyone. There is no prompt. All it does is start a discussion.

Also, I had my ranger in the rogue turorial for some reason, instead of my rogue.

[.O.]

that is weird, the only time I had issues with pickpocketing in that tutorial mission is when the character selected is not proficient in sleight of hand.

Also I may be wrong but I think it picks the character based on either Stealth value or proficiency with thieves' tools

[charles_watkins]

I've got a Ranger with dex 19 and +6 slight of hand. I can get the key but I am instantly spotted by the Quartermaster, even though his back is turned and the other guy is over at the gate and looking the other way. The dial goes red before I can move away. Once there is red, I can't get far enough away before I am terminated. Is this just a string of bad rolls?

I thought this was a bug from the last update. I have not been given the opportunity to pick that pocket since, with a multitude of runs.

[Grumpy Old Dude]

I havent played since before the spring update on 3/25,but i am seeing this crop up more and more and more often. I have to think, it a bug of some sort, the sheer nr of people experiencing it.
