Thought I knew everything there was to know about leveling up these categories. Boy was I wrong! Appreciate your straight-to-the-point (yet thorough) explanations. This will get me the rest of the way to max level. Thank you for this!!!
This is super great for thieves guild. I went from 1-11 on the first day I tried it. Cycling through the quests till the right one is a fast, painless duty. Once I had a few quests done, I never had to go back to steal anything. My rewards were continuously supplying what I needed for the next quest. I only gained one ledger level, but that was just because my rewards were spot on. It's already at 8 anyway. Couldn't of worked out any better. Been playing for six months and your video is the only thing to get me to engage in this guild line. Thank you much.
This is a solid guide. It's a great way to level. Personally though. I always took the pickpocketing quest. Went to the indicated town and picked as many pockets as possible. Once my legerdemaine skill got up so I could improve my pickpocket skill I focused on nobles and guards. Let me tell you. Pickpocketing guards levels your legerdemaine very fast. Plus, if you get the third item, there is a chance to get rare bounty poster furniture items. But I digress. This videos method is faster than mine. But I enjoyed mine a lot haha.
So had just made a thief a couple days ago and wanted to do this again as it was so helpful. but I had to do the pick pocketing in abah's landing once, then it gave me the esteemed thieves quest. And I was 2nd level in the Thieves Guild.
Great suggestion, this was super useful to power leveling the theives guild line. after 2 or 3 times, the laundered packages you get give you everything you need to keep turning it in back to back
Thank you. Only mmo's I have really played Is Star Wars Galaxies and that was a long time ago and Eve online. So this is all new to.me and was a bit overwhelmed with the amount of things to do to try to master a skill. With these 2 videos I now have a much better grasp on things thank you and watch your 6.
Okay this is amazing! Went from 4-7 in under 2hours!! And that’s because I was slow getting the initial shipment of items I didn’t have, did a heist, and one spree! :D
Doing this for both the guild leveling and there crafting Motifs. When the items are already laundered, does that disqualify me from getting the motif included in the large box? I went to the wiki and i'm not sure if that causes me to not get it.
I made the mistake of laundering everything and ran out of launders. Tomorrow Ill just do the quest and sell the rest without laundering. I didnt get any quest usable items from the laundered goods container. I wonder if they changed it or maybe im not advanced enough to get those.
PRO-TIP. On PC, there's an add-on for this quest, called Coveteous Countess. All it does is skip the options on the tip board until you hit the right quest. The CC quest works because once you have a reward crate from the guild, the contents are enough to finish the CC quest. So you don't have to pickpocket/steal and then launder, the goods in the crate work. So all you're doing is traveling from A-B and back to get your reward.
Have they changed this? Because I don't understand this at all. The only "esteemed thieves"/Covetous Countess quest I'm getting, is to collect "clean" writings and maps. Nothing else. And the reward is always 10 Copper Measures, which won't help at all with repeating the quest, as some commenters below say. I stole over 100 items (all worth 40g or more, so no crafting ingredients or other rubbish), and one of the very last one was the 3rd item for the quest, so obviously this is a pain in the butt.
Anybody have it giving them the same treasure types to hunt for every quest? Starting to wonder if I should do a different one just to see if it won't lock it up like that.
@@princeofpersia9154 don’t quote me on this, it’s been a little bit. But I believe the quest is called “Countess Something”...I just remember that much. You can’t miss it though.
Unless I'm missing something, the "esteemed thieves" tip no longer works. And Defenseman61913's PRO TIP below doesn't work either. The AddOn is "outdated" and has no apparent effect on the tipboard. So back to the grind ...
Awesome guide, but unfortunately everyone is doing it now. Iv been a dozen times and there's either someone already there. In the process of stealing everything. Or they just finished up and everything is empty. Even the npc is gone bc already been murdered. 😭
Okay, this stuff is good to know. Heh. Stealing in other ES games: "Unknowable thief exploits temporal magicks until every crime is done perfectly!" Stealing in ESO: "Incompetent known as the 'Bungling Burglar' botches the most basic of jobs, hides and cries in Refuge"
So the board shown in the video has no quest on it. I just wasted my time watching this and have had to go find another guide. Maybe you should add that you need to talk to NPC Quen in outlaw refugee to do an initial quest.
And i love this game It's just proof THAT ANY mmo would turn into suck ass if they put mandatory STEALTH in it Into a type of game where there's no penalty of getting caught or dying because it's Online Service. Meaning you can null Bounties by dying and a similar to WoW feature that allows you to ressurect. You can just die and run past as many guards as you can. And the enemy AI is not built for player detection. BECAUSE ITS AN MMO YOU FIGHT THEM THATS ALL THEY PROGRAMMED FOR. No matter how much I want personally programmed NPCs for thieves heists. Make them dumb like "oh it must've been the wind" and all but no

Awesome tip, thank you! It's leveling Thieves Guild like crazy without me even having to steal anymore. :D
Okay this is amazing! Went from 4-7 in under 2hours!! And that’s because I was slow getting the initial shipment of items I didn’t have, did a heist, and one spree! :D
glad this still works thank you for the informative video
I will be leveling all weekend thanks!
Back out how? I tried even logging out the game and it would still show me the same quest as before
At the tip board 1:58 what do you mean by "back out and try again"
Basically, dont accept that quest. Escape from that menu and then re-check the tip board until it gives you the Esteemed Thieves quest.
Does this still work???
Doing this for both the guild leveling and there crafting Motifs. When the items are already laundered, does that disqualify me from getting the motif included in the large box? I went to the wiki and i'm not sure if that causes me to not get it.
Not that I know of, I've definitely gotten motifs while farming in that way.
I made the mistake of laundering everything and ran out of launders. Tomorrow Ill just do the quest and sell the rest without laundering. I didnt get any quest usable items from the laundered goods container. I wonder if they changed it or maybe im not advanced enough to get those.

I think they fixed it. I keep receiving rewards that are to no use.
Great video nontheless!! Definitely subscribing.
Thanks fella, really appreciated :)
Thanks for the video.
Solid video, thanks for the tips!
You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it!

"masterthief" might be a bit of an overstatement 😂 clear and concise though!
Thank you!
Do u keep the skills if you lose eso+?
What all is this character wearing
There are no quests on the board for me.
Thank you for the tip
Good vid. Thx 😁
No problem! Glad you enjoyed it!
In no time??? It takes like month if not longer if you max out what you can do every day
Anybody have it giving them the same treasure types to hunt for every quest? Starting to wonder if I should do a different one just to see if it won't lock it up like that.
From what I've seen, the required items seem to be based on your level.
So you gotta actually be level 5 in the guild to get that quest.
did they change it?
@@FeyNoel I was wrong. I was level 3 when I finally got it. I had to refresh like 60 times and it finally popped.
nice one!
Nice
Thank you!
wheres abahs landing?
Abah's Landing is in Hew's Bane. When looking at the world map it's south of the Alik'r Desert on the western side of the map.
Can’t get that quest to come up. Been trying for longer than you think I have lol.
Keep on trying. The longest it's taken me is about 20 or so tries.
I figured it out actually. Esteemed Thieves isn’t the name of the quest, that’s what through me off. All good though, helpful video
@@HolyMolyJC what’s the name of it?
@@princeofpersia9154 don’t quote me on this, it’s been a little bit. But I believe the quest is called “Countess Something”...I just remember that much. You can’t miss it though.
@@HolyMolyJC those are the dumbest comments ive seen so far - you can see the name of the quest in the video...
The cutpurse craft is the only quest its giving me..... over 30 tries
I've had that happen once or twice. I ended up just doing that quest and then it seems to fix itself. It's like it gets stuck in a loop or something.
The tips board doesn't change :(
I just tried it, it's still working for me on PC. I did have a string of about 7 of the same one back to back, but it did start changing.
Unless I'm missing something, the "esteemed thieves" tip no longer works. And Defenseman61913's PRO TIP below doesn't work either. The AddOn is "outdated" and has no apparent effect on the tipboard. So back to the grind ...
Esteemed Thieves still works for me, sometimes i have to retry the board several times to get it. Sometimes i get it over and over again.
When I’m not looking up ESO videos I go around UA-cam and a troll every other video that has nothing to do with stuff I like
Lol what a weird way to ruin your own algorithms.
Awesome guide, but unfortunately everyone is doing it now. Iv been a dozen times and there's either someone already there. In the process of stealing everything. Or they just finished up and everything is empty. Even the npc is gone bc already been murdered. 😭
I keep warping out of zone and coming back hoping it will reset only to find the same thing, but a different instance
Okay, this stuff is good to know. Heh.
Stealing in other ES games: "Unknowable thief exploits temporal magicks until every crime is done perfectly!"
Stealing in ESO: "Incompetent known as the 'Bungling Burglar' botches the most basic of jobs, hides and cries in Refuge"
Use 5 night mother, 4 darloc, and 3 night terror and if you are a khajit even better, second best wood elf.
5Night silence + 4darloc +3night terror + khajiit or wood elf
@@joshetrtg817 If you're a vamp you don't need night silence. Vampire passive negates the cost of sneak.
So the board shown in the video has no quest on it. I just wasted my time watching this and have had to go find another guide. Maybe you should add that you need to talk to NPC Quen in outlaw refugee to do an initial quest.
And i love this game

Update in 2024 - no longer works for me. None of the appropriate goods were present.
worked for me, just had to find the right goods on the boats. mine were cosmetic linens and accessories.
