Hi Kiya! I guess you are the unofficial expert here eh? I don't know about the trading, in DD the prices would change significantly, thats what I was looking for in BD. Besides, usually I'm trading a bunch of items I pick up and trade them for something I need. But in the beginning of the game there are hardly anything to pick up to trade. As far as pickpocketing, who would I pickpocket? As the skill of pickpocketing allows you to pick the number of items equal to your skill, it was rather unfeasible since I had defensive and offensive skills to purchase to help me stay alive. Besides since there wasn't much gold or items to pick up at first, at 2000 to 5000 gold I couldnt afford it. Comments?
