Autoloot pickpocket works fine for me, as long as I do not use
pickpocket in a macro.

If I use it at the beginning of a macro, trouble occurs, but macroing
pickpocket with Ambush doesn't really fit my style anyway. I tend to
pickpocket while moving into position, then ambush when I get there.

I just thought I'd let y'all know my experience with this.

It works great for me - piles up the money and blinding powder.

Here is a cheap shot version:

It requires "auto loot" to be on to work properly.

In another thread, someone has said that this macro
doesn't seem to be working too well. The problem
possibly being that the looting isn't instantaneous
and that second action (cheap shot) is cutting
short the looting before it has finished. But this
macro has been in use for ages, so the problem may
be new with the latest patch, or specific to slow
add-ons or computers, or something like that.

Bugged or not, I'm getting *tons* more stuff with
these macros than I did when I had to remember to
pick pocket explicitly. Especially in instances
where I never did pick pocket before. (I did have
to re-learn the keys though after turning on
auto-loot)

The beauty of the macro is that you can leap into the fray when an enemy
is already engaged by other party members, and still pickpocket without
wasting precious seconds.

Also, it makes keeping your lockpicking skill maximized easy.
