i got a TGI and just start my ambush journey today.
i try 8 ambush and lose 6 time :(

did i have any problem?
plx help me~~
Everybody can defeat them without great artifact.
i always using full set in every ambush...
Ambush? Easy? Only for level 6 elf w/efk. And probably DE w/shrews.
Necro needs full arts for TG - it's a faction not made for thieving..
I never heard that Thief Guild was easy.
People only said that Thiefs Guild 1 and 2 are easy COMPARED to the other thiefs guild levels
Just keep on trying thieveing each time you lose a type of ambush the next you encounter that type of ambush it will be eaiser for you .

Agree.

Your problem is that you aren't using good arts. TG3 and higher you need great arts, which means a full set of enchanted arts of the highest level, if you want to win most of the time.

Right now you are using lower level arts and not even a full set. At least have a good full set of arts for your level. Don't use a set of arts for a level 5 when you are level 7.
As long as u kill the main troops first and focus on them .. then every ambush will be easy .. :) Arts is important too .. I even pass TG 4 without any Enchanments, just wore hauberks even at TG 1 - 3 .. :) Reprisal Sword, Def Shield .. and without any Magic Guild level 2 .. :)
what should i do about ambushes i have lost 50% i just started plz tell me some strategies about lvl 9 barb
To win thief caravans you need:

1. Experience (the more you do, the more you'll know how to set up, etc)

2. Arts (Full is your best chance at winning)

Without good set-ups, or tactics...even with the best arts you will lose. Without the arts to back up your skills, well, you may lose as well.

I heard TG1 was easy and you didn't really need arts.. I wore full arts (inc. +24%dmg sword) and there were still certain caravan types I nearly always lost against and others that without arts I would have.

I would strongly advise using all the arts you can afford if your on a limited timescale (i.e. renting it) and can't play all day everyday or are easily frustrated
P.S. I didn't notice much of a difference in success % from TG1-2, partly because certain types were difficult both levels (whilst others were very doable on both) and also you will improve your tactics as you go through more
Elves and Dark Elves can get away with not using the best arts ^^

At level 11 I did a few caravans with Dark Elf, and only wore basic arts (no rings, no cloak, and only amulet of luck)--and still won.

But I been trying to do the same with necro/barb factions with virtually no success ^^
Well, from my experience of Knight level 7-8 doing TG 1-2, I have to say it's easy with full arts. I managed to win 47 times in a row.

TG3-4 on the other hand is much harder despite me using the best arts.
louis, for a necro is hard to be a tief, believe me! The others gave you lot of good advice, the only thing I could suggest you is to check the combat logs of the other necro to see the best tactics.
I have the same problem with Wizard... I lost five caravans in a row :P I'm just going to try stick with it! It just means I have to try extra hard to get all my ambushes done in the allocated time I have from my lender.
thank you everyone's advice!
i will have a try
lvl 6-7 ambushing,


min ap or general arts without diamond,

knight is the easiest, with max recruits not bowmen, and escort.
it's especially easy with DE (clean out those annoying red-headed quickly by escort)

next would be elf, barb, they can do a lot dps.

DE is average.

Necro depends on factions, non-magic faction are easy but magic factions are extremely hard, some type having no hope to win.

demon is bad, since caravan heroes have "unlimited" mana.

wiz, change ur faction for thieving, :P
Well I run demons and i m lv 6 with a good n of arts so I have no big troble .
I made first lv in 5 days.
I have no idea of what it comes later .
I can suggest u to ambush players (I do it from the capital to yellow lake) .
It is often easier.

ps: Demons is bad? Well I don t know compared but the unlimited mana is not a big problem i have to say. It uses it to kill succubus and demons do the most of damage gating units
