  • How to unlock Pickpocket, Thieves Guild

    Joining the Thieves Guild can be accomplished in a number of ways. The first is to simply steal some items by breaking into a house or pick pocketing someone. Then allow the guards to catch you and throw you into jail for a bit. Once you’re released, a representative of the Thieves Guild will approach you. Alternatively, you can also read one of the wanted posters for the Grey Fox posted around the Imperial City. Doing so will add the “Grey Fox” conversation topic with some NPCs. Find a beggar in the Imperial City and ask them about the Grey Fox. If their disposition is high enough, they will ask you if you are looking for him. If you say that you want to join him, they will tell you to go to the Garden of Dareloth in the Waterfront District of the Imperial City at midnight.

    Armand Christophe, a representative of the Thieves Guild, will meet you and two other potential recruits. The test for admission is race to which of the three of you can steal the diary of Amantius Allectus and return it to Armand first. To start, talk to the beggar Puny Ancus and bribe him to tell you the location of the house. He will tell you that it is in the Temple District. The house is actually right next to the door between the Temple District and the Imperial City Arboretum. Break into the house and open the desk on the right side of the room to take the diary. Return to Armand in the Garden of Dareloth, give him the Diary, and he will admit you to the Thieves Guild. The achievement will unlock as soon as the initial conversation with Armand is finished.

  • A note should be added on this quest. Thieves Guild questline won't start if you happen to unlock, via lockpick or spell, the last cell on the side with two in the dungeon of Castle Leyawiin before this quest. If you find Amusei hiding behind the entry door in this dungeon in Sneak mode, then this bug has occurred. I had to go back 10 hours game time and restart because of my habit to steal keys and unlock every door I can get into and look around.
  • There are two ways to get the quest to join the thieves guild one is to get a begger to like you enough by using the persuasion wheel thing then ask about the gray fox and say you want to work with him or you can just break the law and get caught then serve time in jail either way youll be approached randomly by a dark elf hope this helped
  • This is by far the best guild because the reward for beating it is amazing. I got so obscenely rich with this that the rest of the game was a breeze.
