-Hobbit pickpockets are slightly tougher than the standard hobbit, and their chance of carrying a sling and flint stones makes them somewhat dangerous for early game [[Giant (starting race)|giants]]. However, they are not much more difficult to defeat - a giant in particular can easily flatten one with a thrown [[boulder]].

 Hobbit pickpockets are a good early source of unlocking tools, containers and even armor for most characters.

 Like regular hobbits, hobbit pickpockets have a chance of [[Monster starting inventory|being generated with]] the following: one of a [[dagger]], a [[elven dagger]], or a [[sling]] and some [[flint stone]]s. They also have a {{frac|10}} chance of generating with a [[dwarvish cloak]], and an independent {{frac|10}} chance of generating with [[mithril]] [[elven chain mail]]. They will also receive some [[gold]], with an additional {{frac|8}} chance of receiving a [[lock pick]] and a separate {{frac|6}} chance of getting a [[sack]].
