New Rogue questions: and yes, I've read the FAQFollow

lol... um lets see... u can only pickpocket humanaiods... stunlock is not a skill lol its when u hav ur oppenent constently stunned so that they cant attck at all it takes skill to be able to do this for ex: u start off with cheap shot which gives u 2 combo points u use sinister strike a couple times then u use kidney shot and go from there and if u dont kill them u can use gouge then get behind them for the finishing blow... lock picking is the bomb lol its used to open up doors when u and other people dont hav the key its also used to open up locked chest u find in like dugeons and other places and u can open u locked boxes that drop for mobs and u can also pickpocked humanoids to get lockd boxes so u can open them get ur skill up and get money and poison supplies... it is also used for opening other people locked boxes. the higher skill u are the higher box lvl u can open and people tip u pretty well for the higher lvl boxes

hope this helps

Okay, thanks for the information. Like I said, just started and the only stun move I have atm is gouge but I've been doing stealth/gouge/backstab/ss and if the mob's still alive then evisc. A good combo for the level or is there a better attack plan for a level 10?

Just do whatever you can to kill fast, the fun only starts from level 26 and level 30, where you get Cheap Shot and Kidney Shot.

I notice a lot of people are saying cheapshot, then sinister strike until five combo points in order to kidney shot. I just wanted to throw into the ring that with a couple specific talents (Initiative and Seal Fate) you'll often find that one cheapshot and a backstab will be enough to put you to five points. Its faster, and more efficient. Stunlock, in essence, is allowing the least amount of movement and damage from an opponent as you possibly can. So, by that, those two talents are very stunlock friendly.

actually now, at level 13 I have both sap and gouge so please, feel free to talk stunlock builds...I'm all ears.

Shmii explains.

Kidney shot is stun.
Cheap Shot is also stun. Enemy can not act for duration of stun.
Gouge is incapacitate, enemy wakes if you hit.
Sap also incapacitate.

You can not perform stunlock with Sap and Gouge.

There are intricate ways of locking down an opponent at high level using stuns, incapacitates and disorients, but typically when people say stunlock they mean using cheap shot and kidney shot in succession, while not allowing opponent any room inbetween.
