For pick pocketing I would suggest saving up stealth boys. It's pretty hard. Since even at 100 sneak and a stealth boy you can still be caught pickpocketing. I only really PPd because I wanted legion rep while being liked with the NCR. Dog Tags are apparently harder to pick pocket than guns.

Stealth Boys raise your Sneak by 100 already so there isn't a need to raise it.

Pickpocket sleeping people.
I pickpocket sleeping people. Lurk about in the Vault 21 hotel, theres some there.
That's how I'm going to do it.
I decided not to pickpocket BoS people, though. Yes they're asleep, but they're also wearing power armour and heavily armed, lol.
Anyone low perception whos asleep will do.

So long as you've a sneak over 30 you'll be ok.

I said very simple explanations were needed with every post. I never said otherwise, at all. I was'nt looking for complex strategies, I am looking for really, really simple instructions, like put card there, make stack. Literally the very simplest instructions possible.
And yes, I loathe and despise the game. But I am damn well getting that platinum.
I loathe and despise every kind of gambling and card game there is.
The only ones I get, even in a very, very vague way, are Blackjack and Old Maid.
And no, I don't play old maid a lot, it just happens to be on Tinier me and does'nt bore me to sleep.

Thank you.
It might, you never know, lol.

Thank you.
