Thief equipment is easy to spot as it frequently (though not necessarily) has Damroll, Dexterity, and Thief Skill Level all at once. Occasionally a thief item will also increase Hitroll, Charisma, Strength, or Constitution. An example of a Thief item would be the following lowbie neck item:

Artifact armor
NECK
1 Armor Class
  • +1 Thief Skill Level
  • +1 hitroll
  • +1 damroll
  • +1 Dexterity
Requires Level 19 Thief
Keywords: rat black medallion chain metal



Backstab Weapons

When using the Backstab skill picking the right weapon is critical. It must be a pointed weapon meaning one of: pierce, stab, sting, gore, or bite. A weapon meant for backstabbing is generally spotted by its stats which will be one of the aforementioned damage types, it will have high Damroll with little or no Hitroll, and usually includes Thief Skill Level. The weapon (perhaps obviously) also cannot have the NO_BACKSTAB flag which means the weapon cannot be used for backstab, though this flag is usually found on Warrior weapons with pointed damage types rather than Thief weapons. Note: a good backstabbing weapon generally also makes for a good Crippling Strike weapon due to both skills ignoring the target's Armor.

One of the most iconic backstabbing weapons is The Lost Spear of the Ancients:

Artifact Relic
6 to 66stab
very slow Speed
  • +10 damroll
  • +2 Thief Skill Level
  • +1 Dexterity
Account Bound
Requires Level 29
NO_SAC
