Your opinion on thief build

Right now I have a nox mage that I never use, and I hate to have wasted my gold on his neon hair so I'm thinking of changing him into a thief, just unsure on what skills I should drop.

Right now he is a 5x mage with poisoning and hiding.

What would you drop to make this guy work, and what would you pick up?
I mostly town-steal since that's generally the only place I can find targets, though I do go to some hot spots like yew gate, and outside of delucia.

Also how long does it take to lose 1 long term count?

40 hours to loose 1 count.

If you decide to not fight at all with him I would drop eval and poisoning and train stealing and snooping.

For a fighting thief I would drop wrestling and hiding and train stealing and snooping.

Re: Your opinion on thief build

best thief is a disarm stealth theif

Arms Lore +
Wrestling = disarm ability

Hiding
Stealth

Snooping
Stealing

and a 7th skill (magery)

i find disarming works better, more chances if you have 100 dexterity

I tried that on my stun-heal thief without magery.
Not having heals sucked though, other than that I did like it though.
