ESO Pickpocketing.

Hello all you out there in Cyberspace!!!

Cordelia here,

   So, if you ever played Skyrim or Oblivion, you know that Pick-pocketing and stealing were the best ways to make easy gold. I'm here to tell you that this is still the same for ESO. Here is a quick guide to the best way to make some quick and easy gold by Pick-pocketing.

So as you know there are 5 different tier colors for items: White, Green, Blue, Purple and Gold. As is true for all else in the game, these items represent different tiers and different monetary value.

****But before we begin, you may want to go into your options, and turn on Auto Loot for Stolen items and turn off "prevent attacking friendlies".

First, start off by making a new character under one of your profiles. Select Aldmeri Dominion as your alliance.

Run through the Tutorial and if your inventory gets full at any time, instead of destroying the items, try sending them to someone you can trust to hit "return to sender" for you so you can still sell those for gold.

Once you reach Auridon, run around and start scouting out which NPC's are alone without anyone near them. Make sure your inventory is empty and that you know how to get to the Outlaw's Refuge (this is where the fence is located). While you are doing this, also try to get an understanding of the routes guards take. Especially because you may gain a bounty during this process.

Then, start sneaking around and find all of the "Easy" and "Medium" targets. These will be ideal for this "mission" of sorts. REMEMBER, the guards in ESO cannot be killed so once you obtain a bounty avoid the guards at all costs as they can and WILL kill you. If they succeed, they will remove all stolen items from your inventory and take your gold to pay off your bounty. However, guards cannot take money deposited into the bank.

Once you find your mark, pickpocket them three times and then kill them right away. If you fail to pickpocket them, kill them. This way, the NPC will respawn with all three items to pickpocket shortly, and you are working on your achievements (Mass murderer).

If you find any White items (worth 30), destroy them so that you can leave your inventory open for the Greens ( worth 100), Blues (worth 250) and Purples ( worth 750).

Once your inventory is full, run to the Outlaw's Refuge without being seen and talk to a fence. Your transactions are limited each day, which is why we recommend destroying the whites. Then, deposit your money with the money lender near by so that the guards cannot take your money toward your bounty.

After you level up your Ledgerdemain (the thieving tier of skills) then start putting points in your fencing transactions, Pick-pocketing and lock-picking. This way you can eventually you can move over to looting homes and lockboxes.

Well, I hope this helps!!!
