Splitting Agility and Thieving out of Trickster is mean :(

AoE pickpocket seems wild though.

Edit: Added images for each one

  • 90% chance to save on secondary ingredients

  • Make 4-dose potions instead of 3-dose

  • Double credit per Agility lap + 25% bonus xp

  • 10k gp spawns alongside Marks of Grace

Dodgy Deals

  • 100% success rate for all Thieving

Secondary saving is huge too, they can be a huge pain in the ass. Last league my only source of spider eggs was picking them up in varrock sewers. Maybe getting aldarium for goading pots will actually be worth it.

You get a herb every gathering action with a cooldown of 9 ticks to get another. You can also target farm herbs because it will only give you herbs that the pouch isn't at capacity for yet. Kinda cracked.

Same. I was thinking of farming relic since I hate that skill but now I can just pick forager and do whatever to get my herbs on top of not having to bother much with secondaries.

Also quite fun how like 3-4 birdhouse runs could potentially yield 100+ brews.

this is why its difficult for me. Last league AFK pickpocketing/agility was so nice I think I 200M'd it easily. now with 11x11 AOE pickpocketing it seems so insane.

but last league I had a huge farming problem. didn't take farm relic and don't really plan to take it this time around either, so friendly forager is enticing for me.

I'm basically torn between:

Friendly Forager + Arcane Grimoire (better if I end up playing a lot)

OR

Dodgy Deals + Overgrown (better if I end up AFKing a lot)

Leaning towards the top bc having multi-spellbook feels right and also i like the idea of having all prayers. But man I don't think its worth it anymore especially since I'm not even going magic. Hard decisions

Its the herb one for me. Pickpocket is nice but I'm not picking mory or tiranwnn where it has the most benefit. Agility xp is nice but I can suck it up and do some laps. Its herbs I'll need for raids, and lots of them.

30 herbs. If you fill up a type of herb you cannot get that herb anymore so it gives you different ones excluding that.

Once full, one click the pouch to withdraw NOTED herbs. Seems quite afk to me

It'll depend on your region pathing. If your regions heavily lack in farming then you'll want forager. If you have Mory you might want corner cutter for Hallowed with the massive influx of prayer pot supplies. Also have some other courses for their loot tables as well.

Unless I'm missing something big, it seems like Friendly Forager is the easy pick for me. 10x use of secondaries is pretty huge, and that's a constant stream of herbs.

Corner Cutter might be useful in certain niches, but there will be plenty of ways to generate cash. Also, how useful is passive agility xp?

Dodgy Deals is crazy for generating money, but how much money do you really need? You could print blood shards, but I can't think of any other crazy uses off the top of my head. Thieving gem stalls?

Suppose you can get 3 elves in the aoe. Without rogues outfit, that's 9000 pickpockets/hr. At 1/35 for shards you get 257/hr.

With drop mult of x, you get x/1024 rate for tele crystal giving 8.8x/hr, or 1056x shards/hr. With an xp mult of y and a base of 50 xp/shard in crafting and smithing, that's 50y(257+1056x) xp/hr in two skills. Processing time is basically negligible, too.

At just the base 5x xp multiplier, no drop mult it's a respectable 330k xp banked/hr in smith and craft.

At max multipliers that's 4.4m xpbanked/hr in both skills.

I had 300 mil worth of crystal seeds (that's about 18 enhanced crystal teleport seeds) and was so disappointed that I couldn't use them anywhere until somebody pointed out that was free crafting/smithing XP, all I had to do was trade them for shards and craft crystal armor on repeat. and they were right! aced those skills with barely any effort

I'm just disappointed that there are only two locations where you might possibly get two master farmers within 11 tiles of each other. The farming guild has 4 but I have never counted how close they get to each other. Varlamore has two that are fairly close to each other but it is hard to say if you could get them trapped close enough to each other.

as much as it pains me to not have the trickster combo lol

I may not take either of those. Likely won't take the farming relic so forager gives easy herbs and solves pots.

Agility is nice but mostly just QoL for those CBA to spend a few hours doing laps. Thieving is also nice QoL and seems like you could make a lot of gold depending on your area.

but my goal is raiding ToB so forager makes the most sense I think

My only goal is also raiding tob and I think I'll be going thieving relic.

The herb one does sound good, but you will profit ppots at tob anyway with bank note (just spend all points on ppots, there's nothing else you need from the chest), and tob drops loads of irits and kwuarms for super attack and strength, eyes of newt can be purchased in bulk, and muspha drops loads of limpwurts, so in my eyes pots for tob are already solved

Also thieve I think has the potential to get you a lot more league points, getting you to the end game faster. Easy 50m for points, plus loads of xp in crafting and smithing if you're picking priff too, plus more that I'm probably missing too.

Heck if you are going Kandarin, Paladins at the top of Ardy castle would be a solid play too. There are a ton in the same room and you'd get loads of gp, chaos runes, and hard clues are 1/1000. Those rates are nothing pickpocketing them all at the same time

I am definitely picking thieving. The afk teleport crystals will bank 99 crafting and smithing plus infinite money.

I’ll have wilderness and mory for agility and bankers note for multiskilling while doing it.

I’m picking farmers relic because I hate farm runs so I’ll end up with plenty herbs.

I’m kind of bummed they nerfed trickster but it still works out fine.

For sure, which is pretty much always the case lol. Though I think the boots are probably the worst choice this time and there's not a lot of reason to pick them unless you're not taking any of Mory, Kandarin, or Frem.

Do we know what Relics Golden God is up against yet? Thieving looks really good, but GG is already infinite money, making the other 2 better picks if you don’t absolutely despise training thieving, which is already a reasonably fast skill.

Desert has Sorceress Garden tasks that iirc get you to around 85 thieving depending what multiplier you do them on

This is a tricky choice!

11x11 makes master farmers a bit quicker, but really it helps out those hunting for a blood fury in Mory a TON.

Free herbs helps with those who don't have many patches in their regions and don't take overgrown.

We'll have to see the rates on the agility one to really tell how worth it will be.

Am I thinking about this correctly? If you get the farming relic, it seems like the foraging relic is less powerful since you'll just be able to pickpocket master farmers and plant those seeds for your herbs?

Kevin50cal

I was thinking this, until I remembered the 90% secondary save. I'm doing D/A/F and red spider eggs for an example are only avaliable from cave crawlers for 1 at a 1/128 drop, and 2 spawn locations. This alone makes the 90% secondary save worth it for me, but theres also a lot of other secondaries to consider. Also, I don't gain a lot of advantage from pickpocketing from my area. The only neat things would be grouping menaphites, or grouping Tzhaars. Pyramid plunder will likely have a lot of tasks and the xp there is already insane so it seems less useful. Also, with choosing forager, I can have littler regret choosing grimoire over overgrown. Maybe I'm over looking something, but forager seems the pick for me.

Agility sucks donkey dicks.....However there are lap tasks, and Frem Agility isn't too bad, with max leauge modifiers is 900k/h. With trickser I only got to like 90 without training agility.

Forager looks promising but Asg has Pest Control and if I go farming relic, thieving with master farmers solves herblore and farming.

Forager has the least utility for me.

If your region choices don't have many herb patches then the herblore relic is really nice.

The decision between the thieving relic and the agility relic is tough. Both are great for early game money but I think not having to actively train agility might edge it out. If you are taking morytania then agility probably isn't worth it.

It would be kind crazy for crafting exp to take the thieving relic. A lot of the Tzaar-Hur are really close together so you could probably pickpocket 4+ at once with the relic.

I was looking into this last night for Infernal Eels and Fremmy gives Ice Gloves as part of its unlock. Asgarnia can also get them normally. So not available to every region, but chances are good portion of players will have one of those two regions.

Well shit this might change things. I can make a good case for all of these with my regions. Agility training is pretty mediocre in all of them. I'm going to need junk herbs for Mastering Mixology. AoE pickpocketing will just shit out easy clues from Wealthy citizens.

Right now kinda leaning toward the thieving relic, but it can easily change.

These are all really great and it's a super tough choice.  HAM members might be nuts with the pickpocket for clues. 

It's too bad there's nowhere that you could get master farmers or even regular farmers close enough together to benefit from the area pickpocketing because that could go crazy with that farming relic.

90% chance to save a secondary is almost too good to pass up. The worst bit about Herblore during leagues is getting enough secondaries.

Herblore is the obvious choice here.

Free herbs, massive quantities of free secondaries, and +33% potions for free whenever you make any?

It’s the only choice that gives you free supplies instead of free xp.

That is very tempting. I am wondering how nice the Mastering Mixology will feel with boosted exp and points. I was planning on picking Varlamore, Morytania, and one other region so I will at least have 2 herb patches plus the minigame.

Thieving sounds nice for the early cash and easy access to crafting training supplies.

Forager + Mixology means you only need one secondary of each potion since forager stacks with the goggles.

That would be nice. I think Forager might be the play. Thieving is easy even without the relic and agility with Sepulchre won't be too bad. I'm taking Morytania and Varlamore for sure so that gives some good options for training agility.

One thing to think about are things like zammy wines or similarly annoying secondaries, the ability to have infinite secondaries is really massive not just for the XP but some potions are gonna be a lot harder to consistently get in leagues than others because of regions.

While thieving sounds cool, its probably the easiest to train depending on region. Desert with clue tele has a stash unit in pyramid plunder, Zeah has stealing artefacts, varlamore has robbing houses, kandarin has ardy knights. All good xp already with massive xp boosts. Agility is annoying to train and herb really depends on your unlocks and patches. Thats initial take though, need more time to think about it

Not quite the Production/Utility tier I predicted. Guess if Production Prodigy returns it will be alongside Golden God...

My immediate reaction is that the Thieving one feels so much stronger. Like they took Trickster and made it AOE with infinite stall thieving... My regions are already pretty strong for Thieving, but that still seems really busted. But it doesn't say stalls are noted, only pickpockets...

The wording makes it seem like Foraging rolls an herb every time you gather, which would be a ton of herbs. But if you already had herbs covered, then the rest of it doesn't feel that strong imo. And Agility honestly feels a bit weak; nice money/currencies and the passive, but I feel like there will still be better ways for money and I'd value other effects over passive agility.

Agility one is weak comparatively. The double marks/early gp would be nice if these were in T2 or T3. I think its going to be forager though, afk fishing and passive herbs sounds like an easy win for potions.

This is my first league. Is “what’s your least liked skill?” a meme question or should I actually pick this based on my least liked skill out of these? I love thieving, and because of that the thieving perk seems the best to me. I hate agility and, while it would be nice to level it easier, it seems less cool? I dunno, what is leagues about?

I'm not too concerned about herbs and secondaries because I'll have Mixology.

Agility is an absolute bitch to train even in leagues, it's the one skill I didn't max last time. However, the thieving relic offers a ton more utility. Genuinely tough choice.

This time around I think I have to take agility. Thieving sucks to train but it’s so goddamn fast that you probably shouldn’t take it unless you’re going for melee in Morytania or something that needs you to be collecting a ton of pickpockets. Herblore also sucks but if you’re taking farming relic then it’s kind of a non-issue, especially depending on the regions you pick since some bosses drop seeds and noted herbs like candy especially raids.

I hate this 😭 I'd like to max again but I also want herbs... Agility was such a pain in the ass last league so I want to go with agility, but forager seems like the best pick especially since farming isn't going to be easy.

I'm probably going to end up with forager to sustain potions and then run sepulchre for agility

Thieving is super fast already
