Accessories – Octopath Traveler Steal Guide Elemental Augmentor & Mighty Belt I wouldn’t recommend that you go to Marsalim for this item, but if you’re going there anyway to pick up the Dragon Saber, you might as well pick up the Dragonscale Armor as well, which is the second best armor in the game in terms of physical defense. I’m not sure I can recommend you do this just for the Force Shield, as the path to Northreach is particularly arduous and long, and the benefit for the Force Shield is not really that noticeable, however, you’ll also get the Adamantite Hat, which is the best hat for mages (highest defense and +88 elemental attack power) Robe of the FlameĪ very powerful robe, especially for a healer, which provides the highest elemental defense and a ton of extra SP. In Northreach, the northernmost town, you can steal a Force Shield, which is one of the best shields in the game. Armor – Octopath Traveler Steal Guide Force Shield & Adamantite Hat The Dragon Saber is available off of one of the easy to find NPCs in the town. The good news about this particular town is it’s not really very far from Wellspring, the nearby Chapter 3 town, so there’s not too much of a risk of death-by-monster during the trek. This one is a 273 attack power sword available in Marsalim, which is the Chapter 4 level town at the far South of the map, in the middle. It’s on the Eastern side of the lower half of the map and it should be pretty easy to reach.

Wizard’s Rod is a stunning +300 elemental attack weapon available for steal in Goldshore, which is roughly a Chapter 3 level town. This is a pretty big one, considering how effective Scholars are in this game and what a huge power increase this weapon provides. All you have to do is make your way to Saintsbridge and steal it from the guy in the Cathedral. Roughly the same power tier as the Golden Axe, but it’s the best bow you can steal, and it’s available in one of the mid-chapter towns (Saintsbridge). All you’ve got to do is get there, which, admittedly, is pretty dangerous, but it shouldn’t take more than a couple of minutes and a handful of deaths. If you can make it to Duskbarrow in the Northwest part of the map, the Viper Dagger (best dagger before post-game) is available to steal from a random NPC sitting right in the middle of the town. You’ll probably have a 3% success rate (as with everything else on this list), so be prepared to save scum pretty aggressively. Inside is an NPC you can pickpocket the Golden Axe from. Just go to Clearbrook, head on over to the left side of the screen and Duel the person guardian the door.

All you need is Therion and either H’aanit or Olberic. It’s the best Axe available before endgame and it’s available to steal right in Clearbrook at the start of the game. This is the first one that everyone is probably pretty familiar with. Weapons – Octopath Traveler Steal Guide Golden Axe Why? Because you’re going to run through the trails to the highest level towns right after you get access to the world map and you’re… probably going to die a lot, but with these two skills you’ll die a lot less. You’re going to want the Evasive Maneuvers from the Scholar class (1st skill) and Evil Wards from the Priest class (3rd skill). This requires a lot of save scumming so it’s arguable that just playing through the game normally is actually faster but, hey, you’re probably going to want at least a few of these. Doing this early can deck your whole party out in top tier late game equipment that will last you throughout the entire game. Because Therion has access to the Steal path action, you can run around the world visiting towns as early as they become available and rob everyone in sight for all the best available stuff.

If you’re playing Octopath Traveler you’re going to want to steal all the best equipment as early as possible.
