List of Contents

Best Items to Steal

Steal From Every Boss and Elite Enemy

Use Steal on Bosses
You should use Steal on every boss and elite enemy that you come across. They will usually have powerful equipments and masteries, so make sure to Steal from them since they can no longer be fought again once they are defeated.
List of All Bosses and Elite Enemies

Steal From Caits

Cait

Use Steal on a Cait in order to get materials to build a Cait Statue. Having a Cait Statue in your village will increase the amount of EXP and leaves you earn from battle.

Caits are cat-like creatures who drop high rewards, but are very evasive. It is likely that during your first few encounters, a Cait may escape before you defeat them.

Checkmark Recruit Therion

Equip Thief Job on Protagonist

Protagonist as Thief
If you equip the protagonist with the Thief job, they will be able to use the Steal skill right away. Steal allows you to potentially steal an item from an enemy. It is possible to fail, so you may need to Steal multiple times before succeeding.

Success Rate Increases When Enemy HP is Low

Steal From Meep
The lower an enemy's HP is, the higher the chances of a successful Steal. You can tell if an enemy's HP is low by either using the Analyze skill using a Scholar, or by checking if the enemy's name is highlighted in either yellow or red.

Get Steal Mastery From Brigand Boss in Cragspear

You can also get the Steal Mastery from the Brigand Boss in Cragspear. You will need to entreat in order to receive it as a reward. Once you have the Steal Mastery, you can equip the skill on any thief character.

Action Skills Guide
