You will get a quest at level 50 to pick pocket the green swamp things which are around level 53 I think. I can't imagine anything more boring then just sitting on a body that I've already killed. I would be done with this, but the Ally seem to enjoy killing the Horde in swarms and then rezz sitting like little children. All told I went up to around 216 at this time, but the locked boxes are 220 or higher so I am still using the pick pocket technique. I went to Tanaris and attempted to get higher around the pirate town. Get picking!Ĭomment by ThottbotI bumped my skill to around 175 in Tarren Mill in (forgive me if I don't spell this correctly) Durnholde Keep, then on to the Wetlands in the swamps along the coast near the Ally town. Other fun items are the Steamy Romance Novel, Exotic Cookbook (How to Serve Man), and. Pet Rock (Sell to stupid people) See, if you'd just been pickpocketing them, you'd be making bank on items that are no longer acquirable in the game. If you dont pickpocket, you're missing out on a huge amount of awesome flavor items! The raw cash, mats, and vendorables from pickpocketing are undisputably a handy bonus to your gold intake.Įmpty Wallet (I give one to people who beg me for gold >:P) Very handy if you're combat spec and use potions as an 'oh shi-' tactic. You can get a potion or food roughly 7-11 levels lower than the mob you loot something around 1 in 8 tries. POTIONS AND FOOD! (nearly forgot this one) I can rely on picking up a lv 55 potion from 65-ish mobs regularly.

You have almost the same chance getting a gemstone from boxes/direct pocketing as you do mining against higher level mobs (almost always an Aquamarine/Blood Garnet) The drop rate of blinding powder in junkboxes is increased even further I've got 4 or 5 stacks of extra powder in my bank for all the stuff I'm getting.

Since sap will no longer break stealth, you no longer have any excuse not to pickpocket mobs. Comment by FoxpawSome lovely updates as of 2.1.0 that might want to be noted:

Pocket potions gone
