Can you pickpocket trainers for your money back?

[docterj208]

I was just wondering if I could find a random trainer on the street, get trained, then rob my money back. Would totally be the best thing ever!

[docterj208]

yes, yes I can :)

You can but you won't be able to get it because it is set to 0% chance of success.

There are a few trainers that you can use as followers. Training and then exchanging items will let you get your money back without stealing.

Yeah, Faendal of Riverwood is likely the first sucker you'll come across. He can train you in Archery up to level 50 without cost. Once you get him as a follower (from telling Camilla the truth about Sven's letter) you get some training, then get him to open his inventory, take back the money, get more training, take back the money, and so on.

Who else can you do that to, in the game? Anyone know?

I think Unofficial patch fix this :/ can't find these gold from follower inventory or pickpocketing them. Oh well, I made 300,000 gold legitimately on my lvl 78 anyway (I'm about the 0.00001% of player who actually spent loads of perk points on vanilla Speech Tree).

There is a Speech perk tree?

:O Ya, do amazing things like selling everything include stolen goods to any merchants, and possible to bump up their available gold by $1,000 to $1,500.

The Companions provide multiple trainers who will follow you if you complete enough of the questline. Another option I have utilised was finding trainers who are also merchants, especially further on in the game when I can't sell my most valuable items for full price, but actually have plenty of money.

Boom Boom, do you use http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=10989 ? (If you use mods, of course)

Well, :(, I just went to Riverwood and trained with Faendal. He wouldn't give me my damn money back, thieving Elf. >:3

I think he needs a trip to Bleak Falls Barrow again.

I make him run through the swinging axes, even though I know there's the pull chain (◟ᅇ)◜

No, there is a Perk on Speech Tree that allow you to sell stolen goods to any merchants you invested money in. Most people probably don't know, *sighs*

I know
I'm too lazy to get it

But all that mod does is make miscellaneous items worth a bit more

[docterj208]

so wait... can I? Or can I not steal money backk? An artcle on IGN said yes, but it could have been outdated.
