this applies to player thieves in the thieves guild and personal defense .
now i remember a while back anyone who was in the thieves guild was freely attackable even if they appeared blue . (known as permagrey)
then i believe something got changed to they were attackable if they had stolen from you . or was it they had to fail and thus turn grey ? no im prety sure failing made them truly grey . but this is why i ask .
does a top end thief ever actually fail ? (i doubt its often if they do at all)
i know some of them want you to flag on them so they can kill you . i usually just leave , but ive considered trying to fight back . i just dont want to get guardwhacked defending myself.
anyone know the current rules ?
In a guard zone if you attack them when they are blue - you get guard wacked. If they are grey - no problem.
If you kill them outside a guard zone when they are blue they can not give you a murder count.
Permagrey is no more!
@120 stealing i think it is like 90% to succeed but i am not sure on this.
I haven't played a thief in ages but you can attack them no matter what if they've just stolen from you right?
