Overview

The Steal skill allows the player to pilfer an unequipped item from an adjacent foe, allowing him/her to obtain desired items, other than those that are slated for being automatically dropped by enemies.

In GBA Fire Emblem games, weapons, magic tomes and staves cannot be stolen, even if they are not equipped.

For an item to be stolen, the user must possess a Speed stat higher than the unit he/she is stealing from. However, this is rarely an issue, due to the fact that they are relatively swift in nature. Additionally, when stealing a weapon, the thief's Strength stat must be higher than that of the weapon's Weight in order to ensure a successful theft.

In Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken and Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, thieves will lose the ability to steal if they promote into the Assassin class.

Steal is one of the three soldier skills of Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, and thus does not take up any capacity space.

In Radiant Dawn, Steal is completely adopted into the better developed skill system. It simply becomes a skill that all thief-based classes possess.
