New Enemies have no Steal or Despoil Pool?

[Xantavia]

Being able to steal the quest-able items would be great to start with. Making it less of a hassle killing multiple enemies to get something done.

Ugh, I always shudder when it comes to stealing quest items. Think it took me 3 hours to steal that stupid stew for the THF AF quest.

If they could come from stealing or killing, then I am all for it.

[Draylo]

Yeah I agree, it's pretty silly those abilities are completely useless.

Thank you for your feedback on Steal and Despoil. We brought your concerns to the development team and they let us know that they will be making adjustments moving forward.

Could the development team provide us some information on their planned "Adjustments?" Because this wording is very vague. Will they be adjusting monsters so they have steal-able and despoil-able items? If so, who cares? Steal, Despoil and Mug are all worthless abilities. I haven't even had a macro set for any of them in many years.

Will they be making adjustments to Steal, despoil, Aurasteal and mug abilities so that they do something that is relevant and add something that useful to gameplay? YES, PLEASE!

I only ask because it seems like SoA is just more of the same type of endgame content where THF gets the shaft....yet again. Treasure hunter has literally NO effect on any of the endgame activities associated with SoA. What are we supposed to do here?

I've pretty much given THF the "Seal of Useless", Its my farm job, and occasionally i go as a DD if I'm bored, cause i have Mandau, but I never really get a use out of it. I actually go BRD to most events now, hate the idea of needing to gear that up...

But beyond that, I like that, at least Despoil, allows me to inflict the enemy with some statuses... the DEF/Acc/Atk/eva down are particularly useful to me when solo, I just wish that it would allow you to inflict those even if an item is not stolen

We're very sorry, but it has come to our attention that the following information was left out of the English July version update notes regarding the announcement I made above.

Items can be now be obtained by the thief ability "Despoil" from the below monsters types:

Panopt / Velkk / Twitherym / Chapuli / Craklaw / Matamata / Umbril / Acuex

We will be checking on the reason for why this was left out of the update notes and take proper precautions to prevent this from happening in the future.

Thanks Okiput

Item number 2 left out of update notes? Looks like the team needs to do some exercises in communication.

Does the Dev team currently have any plans to adjust despoil (and Thief steal abilities in general)?
