Thieving

From the Pantheon Wiki

Thieving allows you to steal from NPCs, stalls, chests, and safes. Higher levels unlock more lucrative targets including master farmers, Ardy Knights, Elves in Prifddinas, and the Pyramid Plunder minigame. It is primarily click-intensive and rewards attention with fast XP and gold.

Pantheon notes: Blackjacking Menaphite Thugs from level 65 is the fastest XP method and also generates coins passively. Pyramid Plunder (71+) is an alternative minigame rewarding golden artefacts and sceptre pieces. The Elite Ardougne diary increases pickpocket success rate — worth earning for long-term Thieving.
