Maybe you have to try 4/4 out ?3/4 Light Fingers
I don't know, man. That's your opinion.
My opinion is that you need to become a better thief.
The only time in my lawless career where I racked up a bounty of 8k was when I was killing people in plain sight to get the Mass Murderer achievement.
You need to work on your technique. :-)
Stealing is already profitable, making 24k/day and never end with more than 700 bounty as a bosmer
100 steal - 90 steal - BoW

Yeah, and when an 80% green pickpocket attempt fails and gives you a 3-figures bounty, that's the player's fault as well, no? :P

I usually get 92 gold bounty if I'm seen, so I'm not sure what's happening to you.
As for your reply to Tammamy, there are other things you can pickpocket, like motifs and furnishings/plans that are worth more than the standard fare.
And they are saying "a day" because there's a hard limit per character on how much you can fence. They can probably get that done in less time than several hours of scrying for blue 1000 items.
The thing is, it's comparable to other activities, so you can switch around to do what you feel like.

I don't remember now the exact bounty per getting caught, but anyway, they're so frequent that I wasn't that far away after all :P And besides, if you decide to "go careful" as you suggest, then you're lowering your cadence even more. But of course, if you think that 24k per day is "a lot of money"...rofl, you better never discover scrying, or farming in Craglorn/Deshaan.
Also, I've pickpocketed for quite a long time, cos I was kinda hooked to it for a time, and I only got ONE or two purple items that I remember.
As per the hard limit you mention, my words exactly :P

How hard is it to calculate that ONLY BLUE items will cost much higher than 24k ?
Iam stealing green/blues in between RDF ques, and its usually 22-24k per day.
You should know how to steal and where to steal, robbing beggars wont bring you fast moneys.
Pickpocketing is fine, it should not be the most profitable money sorce when every casual player able to hop on khajit nightblade and do the stuff.
How can pickpocketing possibly be a high-reward activity? Do you expect all that average citizens' pockets stuffed with gold bars and ancient artefacts during their everyday routine? Most street thieves simply do it so they can have something to eat at the end of the day.
(..) no matter how good you're at pickpocketing, you ALWAYS end up with a substantial bounty at the end of the day. I've a Khajiit (+5% bonus), 3/4 Light Fingers, and I never pickpocket anything at less than 60% chance (and usually at 80% or more, plus green marker), and I've still racked up a bounty of 8k in my last pickpocketing spree attempt (...)

Pickpocketing n stealing are very profitable if you know where/who to pickpocket.
All my legerdemain/TG/DB passives are maxed on my main char, a DK, so I don't get caught easily. Bounties are kinda low and go away pretty fast if I ever get caught. And I never use any sets for decreasing radius detection or increase stealth.
Advise: level up all your passives related the mentioned skill lines, even the ones you might think are "useless"
Where did i say that a lot of moneys ?Also, I love people who thinks that 24k per day is A LOT OF MONEY OLOLO
Once i need a suggestion from a 8k bounty complaining dud ill whisper you, promise.So I suggest you

I said it might be profitable if you know where and how to steal, as for my example these 24k per day are PROFITABLE FOR ME because i steal inbetween RDF/BG ques in casual mode and browse internet till NPCs are spawning.
Today is 29k + motif, not bad.Once i need a suggestion from a 8k bounty complaining dud ill whisper you, promise.So I suggest you
With 4/4 skill points I'm usually pickpocketing at a 100% chance as long as I wait for it to go green (and if you don't wait for it to go green, you're doing it wrong). A 100% chance means 0% chance of getting that bounty you're complaining about (assuming you're not pickpocketing in plain sight of other NPCs... You're not doing that are you?). No risk, all reward.And I doubt that 1 extra skill point would make any substancial difference, much less in the mechanic as a whole.
