    If you're going to kill Fafnirs for Honey Wines? Sure, DD it down using SA and TA only like the 4x THF + RDM JP party I saw.
    If you're going to mass-kill any kind of monster? No, you're wasting your time using anything more than /THF.
    I don't disagree, I'm just saying people complaining that there's no difference at all is what makes people who could test useful things waste a lot of time just to tell us that "everything is as it should be".

    Why do they have to test it at all? They could just ask the people who wrote the friggin code. If the gain is that bad that it requires a 1500+ kill sample to be sure it even exists, then it is a crap ability and they should be telling the Development team to get their crap together. Treasure hunter is the excuse behind every short coming SE puts on Thief. Everybody knows it does "something". The problem is that the "something " that it does is tantamount to pissing on a forest fire.
