I know there's a bug to get infinite money from the Thieves' Den,
...But I just discovered a bug to get infinite (or at least a lot of) Infamy Points:
I'm playing as a Brigand and went to the Docks to try to pick the pocket of Calik, the HQ/QFG adventurer, at the Salty Dog. While I didn't do it in any of my three playthroughs, I did read about it on the forums as a way to get +10 Infamy Points.
My thievery as a Brigand is only 5 (quite low), so it took A LOT of clicks (and awkward replies of why I was pawing at Calik in my terrible attempts at pickpocketing him) to get it to trigger. The Narrator says Roehm gets 731 blys from the successful pickpocketing and 10 Infamy Points.
I wondered if there was anything else to pickpocket -- being a fellow adventurer, I KNOW they can hold just as much stuff in their
Pockets of Inifinity as Mr. Roehm can in his! By clicking on Calik many, MANY more times, I got another notice: 731 blys / 10 Infamy Points! I kept doing this until I gained about 50 or 60 Infamy Points total, and went to check my Blythos Pouch. However, the number of blys didn't seem to change between the last two successful pocket pickings...
So, to ensure I was getting the initial 731 blys: I restored the game right before I started pickpocketing, noted the number of blys in my Pouch, and got to groping... When the first successful notice appeared, I checked my blys: no change. BUT the Infamy Points indexed by 10.
While I did continue a few more times to get several 10 point increases to my Infamy rating, my blythos did not index by +731 -- ever. I still had the same amount I started with... just with
more Infamy Points than I should have been able to get!I assume a higher Thievery skill -- like a highly successful Rogue who has broken into many houses and the bank -- will make it easier to pick Calik's pockets, with many fewer clicks required. Once I finish up my Brigand bug review, go into the Virtual Bar, kick BT's bottom and get the screenshot to secure my inclusion on the future Plaque, I will test this theory to see if it bears out.
So... until version 1.1 comes out and this bug gets fixed:
Get clicking, you scallywags! I want to see screenshots of Infamy Points well into the
thousands! (And NO Photoshopping!)
