How Can I Pickpocket 0% Chance Items?
Even with level 100 Pickpocketing, almost all of the perks in the tree, several worn items giving pp % and you still see 0% chance items that you can't grab. How do you grab these? Are there ways to pp them? If so how?

Weird I have never seen something have a 0% chance of success with 100 pickpocket and most of the perks.

What is the item?

make yourself a set of fortify pickpocket items (gloves, boots, ring, amu if im not mistaken)

pickpocket while detection meter says hidden, that seems to give a big bonus.
pickpocket while they sleep, if u got that perk.. i think thats about it...

some things like abnormally large stacks of gold will probably always stay at 0%
also i guess some people are just fixed to not be pickpocketable.

i did see 0% now and then, and could move the value up with modifiers... but that wasnt with 100 skill points i admit... im not much of a pickpocketer :)

Primarily gold. Like, when you try to pp the guy you just give tons of gold to for leveling your skill of choice.

I don't see how fortify alchemy would benefit pp at all....

well... you put on fortify alchemy equip and then make a fortify pickpot potion... which will be much stronger than normal fortify pickpocket potions... depending on your overall alchemy total f course^^

When I pp gold off of a skill trainer I only buy one rank then pp, saving before I pp and reloading when necessary. This way it's never a 0% chance. It takes longer, but I still haven't seen a percentage lower than 12. (That is at 100 pp skill and having all the perks.)

best way to pickpocket is to quick save, pick pocket, if it fails quick load, repeat till item is stolen, quick save and repeat the previous steps for all other items you want.

to raise your Pickpocket skill you should do as suggested earlier and enchant some gear but as a cheat you can paralyze someone and as they get up you can take eveything they have with 100% success.
of course you should have the quiet cast perk and a paralyze spell instead of a weapon but that is for you to worry about.

Hmm. So, would I be successful in this if I had Lv 100 PP with 5/5 Light Fingers(Perk), Cutpurse(Perk), and Night Thief(Perk)(assuming Skill Trainers actually sleep rather than stand around 24/7)? As well as Lv 54 Sneak with 3/5 Stealth(Perk), Mufled Movement(Perk)? And under the assumption that I have no gear to increase % of PP or Sneak.
