How do I get the idol without a timing trick?
Currently, AFAIK, you have to at least "convince" Kagha to let the TIeflings stay. Then the druids sit down and stop prepping it, allowing it to be stolen. This trick that follows has never worked until that occurs.
At that point, you can stand down past the ramp to it, right click on it, and steal. Then as you run up you prepare to go to camp, and just before you grab it, you go to camp. With any luck, it'll be in your pack and the druids don't care.
But that seems like taking advantage of mechanics rather than a proper five finger discount. But the other stuff has all been cut off -- mist, darkness, "throw it down out of their view". I haven't tried greater invis, but that spell usually isn't available that early. These all used to work "according to the Internet", but I'm guessing were shut down as exploits.
So...is there a proper thievy way?
Just yes or no, I don't want a spoiler.Ironic, the one time I did PnP D&D at a hotel "convention", they stole a silver platter mid-party, by being the amusement and juggling it right out the door. Computer games, no matter how clever, cannot handle human innovation with a DM sitting there and dice on the table for success.
