TopicIt bothers me that "Steal" is largely useless in RPGs

Some items are only obtainable with steal.

Sometimes you can get certain weapons or armor pieces early by stealing them from a boss instead of waiting to buy it from a shop two towns down the road.

Yeah there are some really good weapons and armor you can steal pretty early in the game which are better than what you will be able to get for quite a while. Problem is they are rare steals. For example, Eligor in the train graveyard is a rare enemy from who you can eventually steal a really good weapon for Aerith.

Some games I find it useful. Others it's pretty meh. DQ XI it's really only worth it if you use itemized kill. Octopath traveler is really weird when it comes to stealing. In battle, there is little point. Steals and drops are identical. Out of battle? Therion can steal better equipment from random npcs than you can buy from stores. Mind you, you can choose to have Tressa buy that equipment instead, but stealing is cheaper so...

Otherwise nothing specifically standing out either way for me.

Edit: right, Tactics steal was useful. And I feel like I used it some vs bosses in Ni no Kuni.
