Information

Note: It is not necessary to train this skill at a guildmaster in order to level it.

Beg an NPC for some money!

  • Has an ~8 second cooldown.
  • You can beg from any monster or NPC and still receive coin. When you perform a successful beg, NPCs will hand you whatever coin they currently have. For example, a guard in High Keep could hand you 10 gold - 5 platinum, while animals will typically never hand you anything.
  • Begging can be skilled up on any monster that can be stolen from, regardless of con. So, for example, you can pick pocket a level 1 goblin indefinitely (even after you take all its coin) for skillups.
  • You do not need to gain experience from a NPC in order to skill up begging. Level 60 player characters can receive skill ups from level 1 NPCs.
  • A failed attempt at begging may result in the NPC or monster attacking you.
  • It is possible to beg platinum pieces no matter your skill level.
  • A great way to skill begging is to beg from a monster you are going to kill anyways then attack.
  • The "hit rate" is absurdly low. Plan on 1 successful 'beg' (in that you actually get coin) per about every 10 skillups. Which is also slow. As of 15JUN2018, successful begs are a lot more common. In addition, the rate of leveling seems equal to a skill like Foraging.
  • You need to be QUITE CLOSE to your mark to attempt. If you are not close enough, you don't beg, and the cooldown timer still activates.

A successful beg will result in the monster or NPC saying:

"Here [PC] take this and LEAVE ME ALONE!"
You have begged [amount of money].

(Alternatively, if the NPC has no coin, there is no indication that you were successful. Presumably, one can only gain skill ups on a successful beg.)

A critical begging failure will result in the monster or NPC saying one of the following dialogues and attacking you:

"You have the audacity to beg from me??!"
"I Despise beggars, they are not fit to live."
