Rogues should be able to ninja coins from zones unseen. "Get coins corpse" should be an unseen action for the rogue class!

Just a thought.

sure they have a steal skill, only makes sense really, or a slight of hand skill. Guess the arguement could be made for gear as well.

cool idea but can be bad for looting issues. like say a rogue looting a rare off a rare and group doesn't know it

That's why just coins!

And a high nance attribute increases the chances of a successful steal, ya know. All that distraction involved...

Seen it on other muds, plant and palm.

Bit unreal because skilled rogues could plant a canoe in someones inventory.

Else, here is a nice trick:

I think in Ashiwi's case she needs a new skill:

Really cool idea Ashiwi, and for the last time she said COINS! So there is no real risk to it. Personally I think it should be an elf only skills since all other races kinda suck too much to be good at anything.

While it's in keeping with RP, I don't think it would be a good idea to implement into the game. It serves no real purpose or functionality....too many other really important coding issues imho. Besides, there are several things that each of the classes can't do that are in keeping with the thematics and/or gameplay of D&D.

[Treladian]

One rule of pencil and paper RPGs is that you must be VERY careful whenever something is introduced that can cause mistrust between players. Ninjaing loot may be a minor issue in a zone group, but could be a huge pain for a ranger or dire in an exp group that relies on money received to replace arrows that break in the group. The things may technically come from trees, but they still aren't free.

If rogues get this skill, then i demand a barbarian skill called shakedown. It would envolve picking up a nancing elf by the ankle, and holding them upside-down until all of their coins fall onto the floor. The barbarian would then throw the elf 150-200 feet, and pick up the coins while cackling maniacally. The elf would be unconscious upon landing, and if it happened to land in a water room, it would sink, drown, and die.

::cough::

Have you ever noticed that some people take things way too seriously? Lighten up people! Of course I didn't expect something like this to actually be implemented, that would be silly. Silly, get it? Oh wait, of course you don't, nevermind.

Trel... again I say, relax.

Now, I want this implemented ASAP as my bank account has recently taken a rather severe beating. If the coins just magically appeared in my account it would be even that much better.

Thanks in advance!

[Ashiwi]

Oh, and as for Thanuk's suggestion, I really think elves should have an innate response to the barbarian skill of "shake down." Any time a barbarian grabs an elf by the ankles and hoists them up into the air for purposes other than consensual, an elf should have a high chance of using this automatic skill, deeply rooted in the elven love for dance and professional ballet, the "nutcracker." This skill basically leaves the barbarian incapacitated on the ground while the elf teaches them the finer nancing skills, giving the breathless barbie a step-by-step introduction to the "electric slide" using the northerner's face, abdomen and groin as the dance floor.

[thanuk]

Upon completion of the "nutcracker" skill, the barbarian should reflexively use his innate ability to vomit the contents of his or her stomach directly on the elf, covering them in a sticky puddle of iron ration goo. The elf would be so disgusted that it would be stunned, silenced, and incapacitated for a number of minutes. It would also setbit the elf's nancing skill back to neophyte, as the trauma of the incident would remove any shred of happiness from the elf, and subsequently, its nancibility.

You've forgotten the elven innate already in existance, the somewhat overpowered "I'm rubber you're glue" skill which keeps our brightly colored faerie frocks fresh and frouncy in even the most extreme conditions, such as barbaric fluctuations in environmental Ph. I will, however, offer you a metal bowl if you wish to keep your somewhat less attractive clothing tidy.

I suggest downgrading the rubber to glue innate of elves. In the true sense of "nerfing" abilities, the elf would indeed remain rubber - foam rubber. The poofy substance that makes your giant fingers is the perfect absorbant for the bile most foul.
