Upcoming Prowler's Talisman Mythic (Shown in livestream 9.4.)

Nemesis7884 · April 10

Instead of bonus 2 + 3 being resources I think it would work better as a thieving tool if one bonus was detection reduction for stealth and the other bonus resource cost reduction for sneaking?

I assume this is not considered a spoiler since it was in an official live stream? Otherwise delete...

I'd rather the increased pickpocket chance. You can already effectively bring detection radius down to pretty much zero, and the mythic grants invisibility for 10 seconds on top of that which makes it a moot point.

It's basically giving non-NB characters a poor man's version of Shadow Cloak/Shadowy Disguise for looting safeboxes without being detected. As well as the pickpocket boost guaranteeing an additional 100% pick on lower tier targets.

Thanks for the screenshot. I couldn't read it on my screen during the stream, and I haven't gone looking for the Summary posts and videos yet.

I wish that this was not a mythic, I wish it had been a sap and/or garrot meant for the off-hand, allowing you to run a mythic like the Shadow Queens Cowl. Granting an automatic incapacitate against non-guard non-player characters, and a chance at incapacitate against guard non-player characters when attacking them from stealth. Then the crit damage and non-crit damage lines would make sense. The invisibility it grants could also be useful then too.

They were light on the details, but an incapacitate seems to be coming in the form of a consumalbe. Sleep dust of a sort. I'm curious to see that play out as well.

This mythic seems very fun. Good design for theiving to me. Now I don't have to slot Nightblade specifically.

It's likely the apple from the original quest, which would be cool for enclosed spaces, but a good sap is perfect for an alleyway, where the wind may be detrimental to plans relying on clouds of sleepy dust.

The mythic really isn't something we truly need. Easy enough to get a NB for that plus Khajit to boot. Cloak all you want AND get bonus to Crit, pickpocket.

Its NB simulator for PvE areas. I guess I can't knock it too much because of the benefits of subclassing but. It's just junk to me. Also, not fond of the Twisted Paths ring either or whatever it's called. Just because it has a slight positive impact doesn't make it a good fundamental change.

I like the new Mythic, sounds fun. Wish the stealth had a smaller cooldown though.

Not everyone wants to be a nightblade though. I know for me I only engaged with Thieves as a Nightblade, a class I don't otherwise really like. This opens up more RP possibilities.

Even if this is RP tier, I like it. I have a mage that I like the idea of gaining stealth with the aid of a magical amulet for sure.
