[Civil abilities]Money also runs this magic land

According to my 2 run experience, thievery, bartering and loremaster are the most useful civil abilities, I didn't invested a single point in lucky charm(guess I felt I was lucky enough in the game :P) and persuasion( persuade NPC with your advantageous attribute)Let your heroes perform their own roles, mine is like this:Red prince(which is my main chara): bartering and leadershipIfan Ben-Mezd: thieverySebblie: SneakingLohse: Loremaster and TelekinesisMoney also runs this magic world, well, let master of thievery, Ifan Ben-Mezd show you the way:) And this is the correct way to steal in Divinity(talk with the NPC,the NPC will face towards you, thus u can hideand steal behind him :P), classic as the bucket in Skyrim, haha. 3 points in thievery is enough to steal from any NPC in act1, Want those fancy items from Zaleskar? Steal then. After stealing, run away from them quickly(you may have a chance to escape the interogation for doing that ) let your hero with high wits(which can mislead them) lead the way, cuz those NPCs can quickly realize something from them is gone and they gonna search the area and question you.If you get caught and end up fighting with them, don't worry, just chill and hit the escape bottom. All things will be reset and you can be able to talk with them again.Attention: stealing is a one time thing, be sure to steal as many as you could.How to make money:1: Portraits are fancy stuffs, such as Bishop's portrait, worth lots of peny. Promised no spolier, so I just gonna tell you if u find the right quest, you can get all of them at low levels (lvl 3, I think), which means you can get some basic skill books! They are pretty heavy though. 2:If you simply kill a NPC, you will get nothing from his shop inventory, almost all of his items will be deleted after his death. But what you sold to him will be still there after his death. 3:Some bombs and special arrows worth a lot of money. If you have enough skills instead of those props, u can still win fights.4:Keep looking, keep teleporting, keep digging and keep looting：you know what I'm talking about :)5:Meet every NPC, they are there for a reason. In most times, saving is better than simply killing.
