Improving stealth skill

[Spectre7]

has anyone found a good way to improve this quickly?

I got mine up a ton right at the start of the game. The store that sells food has a second floor. Snuck my way in there, then just did laps of the place upstairs while sneaking. :p

Yeah just take off all your gear to give you 0 noise and sneak into houses while the owners are asleep. Of course one cheap way is to do it in Skalitz during the tutorial and just sneak in a house next to a guard.

nice thank you

[Spectre7]

for some reason I thought i tried sneaking next to sleeping people and not getting improvement but i will go try

[LordBlade]

I spent forever in the tutorial area, picking every plant, sneaking constantly, making a fortune 1 gold at a time from the dice guy. :p
Broke into every house, stole everything. Had to murder one lady to do it though, as she never left the bench in front of that one house. :p

Yeah once you get to a certain level it's pretty slow. Just make sure you're in an area where you're trespassing and there are people nearby.

Oh yeah the tutorial area is one of the most broken sections in the game. If you knock out the villagers you'll also get a little bit of combat xp too.

Sneaking seems to improve in chunks. So when I'm sneaking around the store, I won't see it change quickly, but every 30 seconds or so of sneaking will give me a few points.

I didn't try to improve stealth skill, u will have it lv up later, just do the optional quest(burn arrow and poston the food) before attacking pribyslavitz (u may stealth for half hour)
because in talmberg siege u really need good stealth skill

1. find teacher to teach you (only avaible one time in each 5 lv)
2. go stealth and kill bandit camp at night

At prib I decided to attempt to kill the camp to see how far I could get, first couple bandits killed dropped a couple halberds which make early combat ridiculously easy, cleaned the entire camp with only a few minor injuries. They can't catch you if they are dead. It also seems like wearing a helm that hides your face is enough for cumans to ignore you at that camp, they'd walk right past me looking for the intruder only to get a halberd to the back of their heads, no sneaking involved.

I still would like a good way to improve stealth, got a few levels doing the pickpocket tutorial over and over.

For that one lady I figured out that if you let her see you enter the house she will come in to chase you out. Then you hide by the door and slip back in while she is walking back to her bench.

Only house I couldn't rob was the upstairs of the Bailiffs building because the door glitched.

God be with you!

When you do things like pickpocketing, lockpicking and knock out while in stealth it helps increases it, might work with stealth kill as well. I find agility the hardest one to figure out to increase though. If you're a naughty person your stealth skill increases pretty quick.
