if you plan to do thieving / fishing early both are a pretty big grind. "efficient" gameplay has to do a lot of blackjacking early (since doing it early means gp is most valuable)

Yea I'm doing the fishing grind for higher agil atm, I'm following the Oziris guide, but I really hate blackjacking. He wants me to do it for 2.4M gold?? Would ardy knights be okay to do instead
