Love having all my party members twiddling their thumbs defending and healing while one guy fails his steal rolls 10 times in a row
I extra love it if the steal move deals damage so you have to also worry about the target dying from too many failed attempts
I double extra love it when it’s a boss battle when on top of everything else the story momentum just grinds to a halt while you fuck with a stupid RNG for 5 minutes
I think it was in Final Fantasy 3 that you had to do this massive grind to get your thief level high enough to steal from bosses, and it turns out there’s only 1 interesting item in the whole game that you get by stealing
