Thieving/Abyssal Training

Abyssal Thieving provides combat and skilling gear, in addition to materials. It contains multiple items that increase Global Abyssal XP gain, such as:

  • Abyssal Hourglass (Upright) (+6% Global Abyssal XP) - A rare item obtainable from any NPC starting from level 1. It can be converted into an inverted version which reverses the buffs and debuffs, so it may be useful to obtain two to have one of each to use situationally.
  • Abyssal Skilling Gem (+6% Global Abyssal XP) - Can be obtained at Abyssal Level 16, but very rare.
  • Golem Gloves (up to +6.6% Global Abyssal XP) - Can be obtained at Abyssal Level 34. Situational, but likely won't improve XP rates due to its 13% Interval increase.
  • Voidtaker Amulet (+3% Global Abyssal XP) - Can be obtained at Abyssal Level 46.

Training

It is recommended to train some Abyssal Combat before training Thieving, as the maximum hits of most NPCs is enough to kill you. It may also be helpful to obtain Abyssal Food, as food from outside this expansion heals significantly less.

The following is a decent gear setup. The majority of the gear can be obtained before starting the Into the Abyss Expansion. Note that it's not possible to use the Grappling Hook, as it counts a weapon that deals normal damage, which can't be equipped in the Abyssal Realm.

You can vary the second Abyssal Familiar to obtain various synergies which benefit Thieving different NPCs.

With all interval reduction buffs obtained before starting this expansion, each Thieving action should take around 1 second instead of the base 3 seconds, drastically improving XP rates.

Skill Tree

Thieving uses a Skill Tree that provides powerful bonuses purchased with skill points earned on leveling up.
