• Alternatively, when playing the mission "A Blanket Finish" for the first time, you can kill an unlimited amount of thieves to loot. Play up to the last part where you must escape the area, then simply do not escape the area and thieves will spawn infinitely. When you think you have killed enough to loot, escape the area to complete the mission and return to where you killed the thieves to loot them.
• Although areas where thieves attack are considered random, they are not. Most thieves attack in isolated areas at night once the player walks around that place a few times. Usually about six thieves will attack you, each with different weapons and Trading Items on them to be looted.
