'''Steal Sickle''' is a scythe skill that appears exclusively in {{Dragon Quest VIII}}. It is a [[scythe]] skill that attempts to steal an item from an enemy while performing an attack.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ8}}===
Steal Sickle can be learned by [[Yangus]] by investing 22 points into his Scythes skill and costs no MP to use. It performs an attack that deals the same amount of damage as his normal attack and has a chance of stealing an item at {{fraction|1|4}}th of its normal drop rate. However, if Yangus defeats an enemy with the skill, the chance to steal will not occur. If the player wishes to steal an item from an enemy without risk of defeating them, one can have Yangus equip the [[Skull helm]] as it drops his Attack to 0. Although coins are scattered when the attack lands, only items can be stolen. The skill will eventually be upgraded into [[Stainless Steal Sickle]] if Yangus invests 70 points into Scythes.
* In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version, the skill was changed so that the stealing effect can occur even if Yangus defeats the enemy with the attack. The [[Candy cane]] was also introduced as an alternative way to lower Yangus's Attack.
