Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints
What should I assign my thieves to do?
1 of 9: It depends on how much money you want
2 of 9: The different conversation strings with Jariel will give them tougher or easier assignments.
3 of 9: As a general guideline, on the first choice, the first option is tough; on the second choice, the first one is tough; and on the third choice, the second option is tougher.
4 of 9: Whenever you send them out, they have a percentage chance of being caught depending on how hard their mission was, ranging from between about 50% to about 90%.
5 of 9: If they get caught, you have to bail them out, which costs money, but not too much.
6 of 9: You should try to get them to collect enough to meet your quotas, and get you a bit of profit.
7 of 9: The quotas are, in order: 500, 500, 1000, 1000, 350.
8 of 9: After that, it's random choice, going as high as 1000, and as low as 300.
9 of 9: Don't wait too long to pay the quotamaster, or you'll lose the guild.
