Guard whacked when stealing from own pack animal. [Fixed]

[[Manco]]

I bought a pack llama and told it "all guard me" .. then tried to steal a pouch from it, in town, and got guard whacked.

I assume the same would happen if you bought an NPC hire, and told it to guard you, and tried to attack it in town..

Thanks.

Thief!

I just took my pack llama to my house to solve the problem. It actually worked out nicely because he would go gray after I logged, and I would just tame him the next day. I was able to break it up into 3-5 sessions without having to repurchase/stable the animal. If you need a house for training, just let me know. I've got a few properties in Yew that I will loan out to people.

I saw you in said house with no pants on and that llama was screeching. wtf

You can actually gain stealing just by stealing out of a container beside you

[Varak]

Sorry about that. It wasn't meant for prying eyes or ears. I'll be more discreet in the future.

Hmm, that doesn't sound right. You're saying you can gain just by stealing out of a bag off the floor?

[Isis]

I gmed a thief by stealing from a secure container.

Sounds like a bug. Stealing needs some love so I'll look into this soon.

That was what Grimoric checked in the demo a few weeks ago, I thought that meant it was functioning as intended. I always thought there shouldn't be a skill check stealing from a container...

This has been fixed and will be deployed on the live shard in patch 43.
