I have not seen any updates at all about this, and I don’t have Beta so…
What’s up with this? And buffing Crimson Vial? Does anyone know whats happening there? Really hope we don’t have another dud like BfA for PP.
Without any sarcasm actually I assume it would be implemented "later this year"™.
With everything exploding on their faces currently, I don’t think Blizzard has time to invest into Pickpocket and I’d rather they don’t and focus on making the class viable instead on more pressing aspects.
Rogue is always super viable.
The point is polishing other more important aspects. I know Rogue is viable most of the time.
If our Crimson Vial had not been nerfed, sure ok.
It was, however.

Most pure DPS self sustain was nerfed across the board.
I mean, I’m all in for a buff through Pick Pocket since it sounds nice and somewhat interactive, but it’s not like that extra 10% will be all that important. With health pools severely squished the reliance on a max HP % heal is lessened greatly.
That is so beside the point, pickpocket is a fun ability for rogues that was a complete let down in BfA. The promise of having an interaction, however small, with Crimson Vial was at least an incentive to press the button.
The problem isn’t about ‘spending time on other stuff’ more so that this promise was never said to be abandonned, but no iteration of the system was ever seen so far.
Blizzard falls flat on their promises quite constantly, so I wouldn’t hold my breath if nothing happens. That’s not to say I don’t want it, but I think there are way more pressing matters at the moment for the staff to take care of.
If we indeed get the promise that some form of interaction with Pick Pocket is coming our way, I expect it to arrive after some live tuning or even maybe 9.1.
I used pick lock on a venthyr box which game me gold and green gear like the MoP lockboxes.
I guess that is something!

I wish they added something to pickpocket, even if it was just for cosmetics like they did in legion.
But I did enjoy using lockpick in the maw intro on those cages while everyone else was trying to kill stuff.
They probably just need more money and resources to keep the entire game up to date.
