The '''Thief Tools''' are a set of technique items unique to [[Duster]] in [[Mother 3]]. All of them cause in-battle status effects on enemies, and several are comparable to [[PSI]] skills that Duster, a non-PSI user, cannot learn.
The '''Thief Tools''' are a set of technique items unique to [[Duster]] in [[Mother 3]]. All of them cause in-battle status effects on enemies, and several are comparable to [[PSI]] skills that Duster, a non-PSI user, cannot learn. Some thief tools have a fixed probability of success regardless of the enemy. Others have a base success rate which gets modified by an enemy's base resistance; these stats interact according to the formula ''Actual Success Rate = (Base Success Rate) x (Enemy Weakness) / 100''. For example, Wall Staples have a base success rate of 100, and an [[Arachnid!]] has a wall staple weakness of 75. Wall Staples will therefore succeed against an Arachnid! 75% of the time.
