Ironman Thieving training route
Optimal path is pickpocketing → safecracking → heists. Safecracking starts at 62 (after the whole Thieves’ Guild quest series). Rushing 90 Thieving early is great for Player-owned Ports.
- 1–15 Quest XP (Hazeel Cult, Fight Arena, Biohazard, Buyers and Cellars) or bakery stalls (5)Bakery stalls also bank a big pile of early-game food; The Feud (30 Thieving) later gives 15,000 XP
- 15–62 Pickpocket the highest target you can; Thieves’ Guild practice doors/chests (after Buyers and Cellars) are an alternativeMaster Farmers at 38 give herb/allotment seeds
- 62–90 Safecracking, Misthalin (62), Asgarnia (76), Kandarin (83). The mainline XP methodBest XP/hr and tool-belt unlocks; rush 90 for Player-owned Ports
- 90–95 Hidden safes (Rogues’ Castle, Zemouregal’s fort, Zanaris); Keldagrim palace chests at 94
- 95–108 Vault of Hereditas heists (95, needs the Breaking the Seal mystery), the best XPLower-effort alternative: pickpocket elven clan workers in Prifddinas (91+) for super-potion doses, crushed nest, dragon scale dust; +20% during Voice of Seren
- 108–120 Asuran Arsenal heists (108, Anachronia Swamp Fortress)
Frequently asked
How many actions do I need to reach my Thieving goal?
Enter your current and target level or XP. Every row in the table divides the XP you still need by that action's XP (after your boosts) and rounds up. Load your RSN to fill in your current XP from the hiscores.
Why does the table show where materials come from?
Ironmen cannot buy from the Grand Exchange, so the useful question is not what a material costs but where you can get it yourself: a shop, a monster drop, or another skill. Each material shows the easiest source we know of, and turns amber when the skill route needs a level you do not have yet.
Which XP boosts are included?
Only always-on boosts with a single fixed number: the skilling outfit for the skill (full set) and a few tools and rings. Bonus XP, Double XP and the clan avatar are not modelled; Ironmen cannot use the clan avatar boost anyway. Use "Other boost %" for anything else.
