Drakensang: The Dark Eye Message Board  

I have been trying to get through this and I am running into a snag with the pick pocket part of this.

Every time I try to approach the Thief he says "Hey, hey ... not so noisy ... You sound like a heard of wild buffalo! Get back there and try it again!"

My level for sneak is 24, so is there some trick to this? TIA if you can help.

It may be what your wearing. Some armor have horrendous penalties for sneaking, especially the metal ones. Hope this helps

Thx for the info. I actually thought that too, so I removed everything down to the undies, and still got the same thing.

I have actually decided to cheat a bit and solved this though after around with it for so long I decided to just use CoSMOS, and turned the 8 emblems into the 9 that I needed, so I guess that I have this one solved, but I would still like some tips on how to get this done without cheating, so thanks for any info given

Look at bottom right of the screen, you will see 3 human figures and an hourglass, starting from hourglass which is pause, to the right is Sneak, Walk and Run. Obviously you select Sneak if you wanna do the sneaking parts of the game.
