Thief

The Thief (とうぞく Tōzoku; Thief) is a job in Miitopia, and one of the six jobs available right at the start of the game along with the Warrior, Mage, Cleric, Chef, and Pop Star. As such, it is one of the jobs that are playable in the Demo.

Job description
"Swift as the wind, with a repertoire of skills designed to confound enemies."

Gameplay
The Thief is an offense-oriented job with the ability to counter enemies through various means. Its basic attack hits every enemy by default, with later skills allowing stronger multi-target attacks. It can also avoid outright avoid attacks with Backflip and Sneak Attack, with Sneak Attack allowing the Thief to deal a greater amount of damage against its target the turn following the one it is activated in. Through the Booby Trap and Huge Trap skills, the Thief is able to protect itself and the entire party, as well as even punish the attacking enemy.

The Thief also has the ability to steal snacks with Pilfer or even grub through its Horse Whispering skill.

The Thief's biggest strength is in its Speed stat, having one of the highest out of all of the jobs, which allows it to move first before anyone else. Outside of that, it only has decent stats everywhere else.

The Thief's weapon is the Dagger, which increases its Attack. Its preferred clothing is the Gear which increases Defense, but the Thief may also wear amiibo costumes.
