    I believe NPCs should be pickable at least to level 60 (5 levels below your max level) based on that patch note. I thought it was equivalent to your level but 5 levels underneath sounds more correct because I always heard fables of pickpocketing the concillium reports for Seru Earring #3 and those mobs are mostly level 60 which would make them max level for a 65 rogue.

    I believe this guy just typo'd 55 instead of 65. But more people claiming to pick pocket level 60 trash mobs from 2002:

    Isn't it a common tactic for rogues to create a level 1 alt to pick the letters for rogue epic?

    there was actually another patch note stating that you can't pick pocket under level 6.
