Question
When I'm pickpocketing, sometimes it seems like I have a 90% chance to steal, but after a few items, I get detected. I thought I saw a loading screen about this, but it went by too fast and I didn't get a chance to read it.
How do I make sure I don't get detected while pickpocketing?
Answer
Spells like Muffle and Invisibility seem to help me remain undetected, or at least escape after detection. Also, pickpocketing while detected by anyone in the area seems to aggro guards most swiftly.
When I really want something that's dangerous to get--pickpocketing a staff of fireballs off an enemy warlock for example--I often save before the attempt. It feels a little like cheating, but becoming a crispy critter somehow didn't make my character's bucket list.
