| | ==Description== |
| | Thieves are sinister people. They can run and jump fast, they can hide and best of all, they do some of the most damage in MapleStory. Thieves are one of the most used classes in [[MapleStory]]. They are also the second-most expensive class in MapleStory, due to the expenses tied to recharging/buying throwing-stars unless you are becoming a [[Bandit]] of course. |

| | ==Becoming a Thief== |
| <center>http://image.mapleglobal.com/guide/ver2_img/character51_12.gif</center>
| | '''Requirement''': Level 10 (That's it. With v6.5 NEXON has made it so players can go all [[STR]] on Maple Island [ this is not available in all servers, though ] ) |
|
| |
|
| They handle daggers and claws, and use skills such as stealing, moving fast, and etc. to help themselves.
| | Go to Fusion Jazz Bar in [[Kerning City]] at level 10 which is somewhere on the right part of [[Kerning]], left of the Taxi. Talk to the [[Dark Lord]] and he'll advance you as a Thief if you have the requirement stats. |
| Clothing-wise, to move quickly and unnoticeably, they prefer tight clothes with bland colors that don't attract unnecessary attention.
| |
|
| |
|
| The job order for the thieves reveal a 2-way job route.
| | For [[Dual Blade]]rs, they must pick the "Dual Blade" choice on the character creation. Then they must do their usual tasks to become a Thief. Afterward, they must do a series of level 10-20 quests to actually become a Dual Blade. |
| In order to advance as one of these jobs, various requirements need to be fulfilled. You should take time deciding what kind of a thief you want to become down the road before committing to route. ~MapleGlobal

| | ==Job Tree== |
| = About This Guide = | | {{Thief Job Tree}} |
| | | {{Dual Blade Job Tree}} |
| It's been many months on end since MapleGlobal first started, and since then, many thieves have spawned from the abyss. This guide has been created to be relevant with the thief population and to help all those who wish to become a thief. This guide automatically assumes you are a complete beginner.
| |
| | |
| You may want to look at the following guide: [[Guide to a Non-Funded Claw Rogue]]
| |
| | |
| Or if you want to try a path travelled by very few thieves, [[Kiyobi's Guide to Dagger Assassins]] might be a good start.

| = F.A.Q = | |
| | |
| Q. What is AP?
| |
| | |
| A. AP stands for "ability point". Ability points are points that you put on certain stats, which include STR, DEX, INT, LUK, HP, and MP. You get 5 ability points every time you level up.
| |
| | |
| Q. Why should I try to get the lowest stats on STR and INT rather than trying to get the highest stats on DEX and LUK?
| |
| | |
| A. As a thief, you are, by default, weak up close, but strong with stars. As you level up, these extra ability points will be useless, and you will be weaker in your melee damage too. Therefore, we try to maximize your damage by reducing the amount of unncessary ability points.
| |
| | |
| Q. I've noticed that I can add AP's to an HP and MP stat. What do they do and is it advisable to add to them?
| |
| | |
| A. The HP and MP stats just add to your max HP and MP. I'm not sure how much they add per point and I would not advise adding AP's to them at early levels.
| |
| | |
| Q. Why are DEX and LUK important for thieves?
| |
| | |
| A. LUK (Luck) is extremely important for thieves because it increases their damage. The DEX helps increase your damage only by a little, but it is a requirment in your equipment, therefore we use as little DEX as possible but enough to wear your level's equipment.
| |
| | |
| Q. Why aren't STR and INT important?
| |
| | |
| A. Neither STR (Strength) or INT (Intelligence) is required to wear your equipment. Therefore, you will be weak at your starting levels, but strong later on. One exception is the 'STR Bandit'. The STR Bandit uses STR for other daggers.
| |
| | |
| Q. What is SP?
| |
| | |
| A. SP stands for "skill points". Skill points are points that you put on certain skills to activate or upgrade them. As a thief, you receive your first skill point at level 10 when you become a thief and every level after 10 you receive 3 skill points.
| |
| | |
| Q. I have noticed that on some levels you have the word "save" but I can't find that skill. What is it and what does it mean?
| |
| | |
| A. When you see "save", please note that this is not a skill. It is just there to tell you that you are not spending any skill points and the number next to it tells you the points that are saved. A brief explanation of why it is wise to save skill points is that when a skill is raised to level 11, the MP/HP requirement for it doubles while the skill's effect only increments by a little. Therefore, you will see that on many guides, the author will tell you to save 10 points after a skill is raised to level 10 and then spend the 10 saved points all at once.

| |
| | |
| Thieves are one of the first job advancements discussed on this page. They can choose between ranged and melee, unlike the other advancements, and they also have the second best HP, armor and defense, but they lack in MP, which Thieves generally need to use a lot of, even more than mages! This is partly why it isn't recommended for Thief to be your first character.
| |
| | |
| == The Road Onto Being A Thief ==
| |
| | |
| You already known that that all thiefs are very strong. Therefore, we will have to use a very special technique to maximimize your damage capibilities. Keep reading to find out.
| |
| | |
| After pressing the "Create A Character" button, you will be directed to a screen as shown below:
| |
| | |
| | |
| http://www.mapletip.com/guides/thief/images/create_char.jpg
| |
| | |
| This image is of a name chooser and character customizer. One important feature is the dice roller.
| |
| | |
| The dice roller rolls for your statistics, it will determine how strong your character in the future. One wrong point and it cost you a bunch of damage points lost. Please keep in mind that this dice rolling procedure is very important and patience is needed to complete and succeed this.
| |
| | |
| The suggested stats are shown below and in the picture above:<br>
| |
| STR: 4(x*)<br>
| |
| DEX: x<br>
| |
| INT: 4<br>
| |
| LUK: x<br>
| |
| | |
| x Means the numbers can be anything
| |
| *to-be-STR bandits can roll any number in STR
| |
| | |
| Your character should have 4 STR and 4 INT because these two skills are useless for a thief (with future STR bandits being an exception). You must focus all skill points onto the skills that actually are used by a thief which is the DEX and LUK. If you are the impatient type, then you can just put 4 or 5 points in STR and INT.
| |
| Never settle for a 5/5, 6/4, 4/6, or higher.
| |
| | |
| Note: This process may take up to half an hour on average. Make sure you are patient, otherwise, your character will not be as strong.
| |
| You are now ready to go on your journey as a beginner. Every single character starts out as a beginner. During your tour of [[Maple Island]], you will learn some techniques and features that MapleStory provides. All this is preparation so you can get out of there and go on real journeys and become a thief. While being a beginner, you will not lose experience points (which are required to level up), but when you become a thief, you will lose EXP after dieing. These experience points are precious because later on in MapleStory, you will take hours to gain a lot of experience. Therefore, you must avoid dieing. But since you're a beginner right now, you can die as many times as you want without losing any experience.
| |
| | |
| For each level you gain, it is important to remember to add Ability Points. You can do this by pressing "S" on your keyboard (default key). For each level, you obtain 5 ability points. After creating your character, add DEX for every AP until it gets to 25. Then, put the rest of the AP you receive (until level 10) into LUK.
| |
| | |
| === Stats needed to become a Thief ===
| |
| | |
| *LEVEL: 10
| |
| *DEX: 25
| |
| | |
| Once you have reached level ten, exit Maple Island by going to Southperry and asking Shanks to leave Maple Island. You will then be teleported to Lith Harbor. At Lith Harbor, go down from the boat and find the Ticket Booth (should not be far from the boat) and go to [[Kerning City]]. At Kerning City, go toward the left and find the Fusion Jazz Bar. Talk to the Dark Lord and he will instruct you on how to become a thief.
| |

| |
| | |
| | |
| As soon as you become thief you can now fight for a cause. You can beat on things that you couldn't beat before. If you experience people that steals your kills, change channels or ask them politely to stop kill stealing. Remember, if you can pass through all the suffering of the thief, you will join the ranks of the strongest jobs in the world of MapleStory.
| |
| | |
| === What to do when you reach level 10 ===
| |
| | |
| Please note the rule for your AP is (applies after level 10, do not use this if you are below level 10).
| |
| | |
| *LUK: +5 for three levels
| |
| *DEX: +5 for two levels
| |
| | |
| Or
| |
| | |
| (Recommended way)
| |
| *LUK: +3 on each level
| |
| *DEX: +2 on each level
| |
| [Player's note: It helps to remember that DEX should be 2 times your level and put the rest in LUK]
| |
| | |
| Note: Only use this rule if you are at least level 10.
| |
| | |
| If you reach level 40 and want to have the minimum amount of DEX to wear your next armor, your new AP stat build should be having DEX +40 your level. Put the rest into your LUK.
| |
| | |
| Example:
| |
| *Level 50, DEX 90
| |
| *Level 60, DEX 100
| |
| *Level 70, DEX 140

| Please refer to the Skill Point recommended table which will be shown later on if you need help choosing. These recommended ability point adjustments are set to make your thief function the best it can. The following is only a list of the skills a thief could possess.

| | | *[[Thief (Guide)|Thief Guide]] - '' by MapleTip'' (Original) |
| If you have a good main character that can get a good amount of mesos, (100k before the thief reaches level 20) you can master one of the two main attacks first (to-be-bandits: Double Stab; to-be-assassins: Lucky Seven).

| '''Claw Thief:'''
| |
| | |
| | |
| Level 10: +1 Lucky Seven
| |
| [Player Note: I don't advise this lucky 7 early rule. Just skip this until you get your Keen Eyes maxed. But it's your thief, so it's up to you.]
| |
| | |
| Level 11: +3 Nimble Body
| |
| | |
| Level 12: +3 Keen Eyes
| |
| | |

| Level 20: +3 Lucky Seven
| |
| | |
| Level 21: +3 Disorder
| |
| | |
| Level 22: +3 Dark Sight
| |
| | |
| [Player Note: I only put 1 in dark sight so I could max out Nimble Body earlier.]
| |
| | |
| Level 23: +3 Nimble Body
| |
| | |
| Level 24: +3 Nimble Body
| |
| | |
| Level 25: +3 Nimble Body
| |
| | |
| Level 26: +3 Nimble Body
| |
| | |
| Level 27: +3 Nimble Body
| |
| | |
| Level 28: +2 Nimble Body, +1 Disorder OR +1 Dark Sight
| |
| | |
| Level 29: +3 Disorder OR +3 Dark Sight
| |
| | |
| Level 30: +3 Disorder OR +3 Dark Sight
| |
| | |
| Note: As a Claw Thief, you are able to use Disorder or Dark Sight. Disorder freezes enemies that are up close. Dark Sight disables physical damages to you.
| |
|
| |
| Note: Throwing stars do not work for Disorder.
| |
| | |
| It's totally up to you to what you choose, but only choose one or the other.
| |
| | |
| [Player Note: I personally prefer Dark Sight because I just think it looks great]
| |
| | |
| [Player Note: Claw Thiefs/Assasins do not need Disorder, instead of putting the skill points after maxing Nimble Body, Lucky Seven, and keen eyes, just put the remaining points into Dark Sight. Don't ever choose Disorder if you are an assasin because you will never use it, and at least Dark Sight is better for them]
| |
| | |
| Note : From level 15 onwards, if this is your first account, I advise you do not max Lucky Seven first as it is MP wasting, and you need to be funded to continue. Otherwise, stay at slimes untill lvl 20.

| |
| | |
| = Tips =
| |
| | |
| Try not to die - it isn't a good thing. You will lose experience, (Usually about 5%-10%) and it can be anywhere from a few minutes work to a few hours work to make it up, depending on your level.
| |
| | |
| Figure out what second job you want to be beforehand so you can prepare for
| |
| the skill requirments for that certain job.
| |
| | |
| Don't let anybody's talk get to you. If they are doing that they want to fight so just ignore it and keep training. It's best not to give them what they want.
| |
| | |
| If you're patient, then find a nice patch of land where no monsters can get
| |
| you and heal instead of using potions - you save money. You can go do
| |
| something else, such as talk on MapleTip.
| |
| | |
| If you get KSed (Kills Stolen from you) don't yell and/or be mean. That only
| |
| promotes bad behavior and makes them mad at you, and then they'll just keep
| |
| KSing you till you leave. They might even follow you. Just ask politely if
| |
| they continue then just move somewhere else. There's nothing you can do to
| |
| help solve the problem.
| |
| | |
| == Choosing your Second Job Advancement == | |
| | |
| When you reach level 30, you should go back to where you first got your job of Thief and talk to the Dark Lord. When you talk to him, he will give you a letter to take to his instructor.
| |
| | |
| The instructor is two maps east of Kerning City; Talk to him. Buy 50 or 60 orange potions before leaving because once you're in, you can't get out. He'll take you to the advancement area. All I can say after this is, go after the monsters. Get 30 dark marbles, return to thief instructor and obtain the proof. Now, go back to The Dark Lord (Long lecture comes) Now here's the hard part. You're going to have to choose between a Bandit or Assassin. If you already decided before, go ahead with the class you want, but if you haven't, well, keep reading.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''The Assassin '''
| |
| | |
| Pros: Is ranged and can shoot very far. Is very fast when it comes to killing monsters.
| |
| Cons: Can not attack up close. Damage varies a lot, it can range to very low to very high.
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player: To counter the close range attacks, buy a dagger, just in case.
| |
| | |
| '''The Bandit'''
| |
| | |
| Pros: Can attack up close, can use savage blow which can attack up to 6 times in a row in the same second. Very high damage
| |
| Cons: Is not ranged, can not attack as fast as an assassin.
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player: Buy a claw just in case.
| |
| | |
| So choose carefully, next we will show what skills each of these thieves have.
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player if you cannot find a dagger of your level just make do with a lower leveled one
| |
| | |
| = The Assassin =
| |
| | |
| The Assassin is the most popular thief second job advancement. The Assassin is ranged and throw stars very fast. The following is a list of skills an Assassin can use.
| |
| | |
| Claw Mastery: Increases the mastery of throwing stars and accuracy, along with the maximum number of throwing stars to recharge. It only applies when the character is throwing stars.
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player: Max this skill, it's for your own good!
| |
| | |
| Critical Throw : Enables the character to make a critical attack with throwing stars on a certain success rate.
| |
| | |
| Endure: Additional recovery for both HP and MP even while hanging still on a rope or a ladder. The higher the level, the faster the recovery time, along with recovering additional amounts of both MP and HP.
| |
| | |
| Claw Booster : Use HP and MP to temporarily boost up the attacking speed of the claw. It only applies when the character is equipped with a claw throwing stars.
| |
| | |
| Haste: Temporarily improves the speed and jumping ability of every member of the party. (A must max one)
| |
| | |
| Drain: Absorbs some of the damage dished out to the enemy as HP. The most one can absorb at once is the character's MaxHP / 2, and can't absorb more than the MaxHP of the enemy.
| |
| | |
| Every Assassin needs to spend SP in the right way, therefore, we have come up with the best possible assassin SP spending guide.

| == Assassin Techniques == | |
| | |
| There are many ways to fight using an assassin. Listen to the following techniques!
| |
| | |
| Backward shot: You can shoot while going backwards. Just jump to the back and turn while in midair and shoot!
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player: This is very hard to master, it will need a lot of time. | |
| | |
| Aerial Shot: Assassins can shoot while in mid air! To do this, simply jump and attack!
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player: This is easy to master.
| |
| | |
| Jump over the monster and shoot: Simply jump over the monster when you are close by and just back shot them before they touch you!
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player: This is extremely hard to master.
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player: BTW, for back shot you can turn back as soon as possible when you jump and shoot and it's a VERY cool looking back shot and gives you time for maybe 2 back shots if hasted.
| |
| | |
| *Note from a player:jump and attacking is the best way to train because you can easily avoid melee attacks.

| == Places to Train ==
| |
| | |
| Now this isn't some weird "OMGLYKWTF TRAIN HERE OR DIE!" thing, it's just suggesting on where to train.
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 1-4''': [[:Blue Snail|Blue]] and [[:Snail|Green Snail]]s in [[Maple Island]] and [[:Lith Harbour|Lith]].
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 4-6''': Blue, [[:Red Snail|Red]], Green Snails and [[Shroom]]s in Maple Island and around Henesys.
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 6-10''': Do not train on [Orange Mushroom]]s, for they are far too difficult and will take many hits to kill. Snails and Shrooms are still good EXP at this level.
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 10-15''': [[Slime]]s. If you haven't already went through the First Job Adv. at level 10 you have to restart and make a new character because if you advance late you will lose out crucial skill points. Buy your items, and some potions. Good places for Slimes are in [[Ellinia]] or Henesys. You can also hunt in [[:Kerning City Construction Site I|Kerning City Construction Site]] for orange mushrooms.
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 15-20''': [[Pig]]s and [[Ribbon Pig]]s. [[Pig Beach]] is great, since there is a vast amount of Pigs, but a vast amount of people. Just keep looking around for a place in Pig Beach but if you can't kill them in 1-2 hits, you can still level off of [[Orange Mushroom]]s at [[Henesys]].
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 21-30''': [[Green Mushroom]]s and [[Horned Mushroom]]s are great monsters for Rouges. EXP is sure to go up fast. Try the Green and Horned Mushroom tree in Ellinia. You can also try doing the Party Quest in Kerning City.
| |
| Players Note: Green Mushroom tree (right beside Slime Tree) is recommended for Bandits, as Horny Mushrooms take too much MP on double stab and too long to kill it without special attacks. Also between 27-30 you may want to train on wildboars but otherwise train on zombies mushrooms
| |
| 2nd Players Note: If green and horned doesnt give satisfaction and if you are funded or have lot of money go to ant tunnel and train on zombie mushrooms and horned mushrooms ,when training you may want to do the rememberer quests.
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 30-34''': [[Wild Boar]]s and [[Evil Eye]]s are good for now. As an [[Assassin]], you may want to try [[Wild Boar]]s, as for a [[Bandit]], try [[Evil Eye]]s. Also, if you're into making big money from drops go to [[Chronos]] in [[Ludibrium]] but only if you have many potions and you are an Assassin. | |
| Note From Player: Bandits can also go to Wild Boars around level 33-35. Levels 30-32 should go to Ant Tunnel 1 & 2 and train on Horny Mushrooms and Zombie Mushrooms.
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 35-40''': By now, you should be pretty strong. You can make a choice of either [[Wild Boar]] or [[Fire Boar]] for both Assassin and Bandit. Wild boars would still be good until the mid forty's (40-43),even though it is a pain.
| |
| | |
| *'''Level 40-45''': Try [[Jr. Cellion]], [[Jr. Lioner]] and [[Jr. Grupin]]s. They give good EXP and great drops. | |
| Player's Note: You can do the [[Ludibrium PQ]] for great exp., and great drops.
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Level 45-50''': By now, you should be able to fight [[Star Pixie]]s. They drop a fair amount of [[Pan Lid]]s and give decent EXP. For fast leveling please got the the [[Ludibrium PQ]]. | | ===Dexless Thief Guides=== |

| | *[[My Dexless Build| Dexless Thief]] - ''by Twilíght'' |
| | *[[Dexless Daggers| Dexless Dagger List]] - ''by ttaffy'' |
|
| |
|
| *'''Level 50-55''': [[Star Pixie]]s or [[Zombie Lupin]]s. Good drops and good EXP. [[Stone Gollem]]s or [[Block Golem]]s in Ludibrium would also be good. | | ===Claw Thief Guides=== |

| *'''Level 55-60''': [[Zombie Lupin]]s, stay there. If your getting bored you could also try the various types of pixies. | | === Assassin Guides === |
| | *Any Updated Guide is available. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Level 60-70''': You can either go to Drake's Meal Table (Assasin, Bandit) or Hot Sand (Bandit). [[Coolie Zombie]]s are the best exp at these levels. It will be hard to get a spot though because pratically every other class trains there. | | ===Bandit Guides=== |

| |
|
| *'''Level 70-80''': It is now the time for 3rd job. For Hermits, they can try out monsters like [[Yeti & Pepe]], [[Chief Bandit]]s can go to Yeti and Pepe, or they can dish out some sweet damage at [[Tauromacis]]. Most people just decide to stay at [[Coolie Zombie]]s.
| | ===Bandit Sin (Sindit) Guides=== |
| | ''Bandit Sins are a hybrid class that uses a combination of claws and daggers. However, this class does not exist in MapleStory, it is simply an idea.'' |
