#AFK Pickpocketing HAM Members

Introduction (courtesy of @desert sail)
Easy clues
are very fast to gather and solve. They have the lowest master clue scroll
and have a Fortunate component
rate of 21/50, note that this rate does include re-rolls and tier 4 luck
.
This guide aims to give you all the information you need to gather easy clues efficiently.
Although the success rate of continuous pickpocketing remains 100% within ~13 minutes on average (assuming all buffs listed below are active), there is still a degree of RNG involved. To check your own success rate or determine which buffs to use and how to adjust the preset, refer to the success chance on the H.A.M. Member wiki page.
To avoid missing clicks when stunned, it is generally advised to set up an AFK Warden alert using alt1toolkit. Alternatively, you can manually cast Crystal Mask
every 5 minutes for a more reliable way to prevent stuns altogether. Casting the spell while pickpocketing will not interrupt the action, and doing so will also prevent the 15-minute lobby timer from triggering.

Location and How to Get there
The H.A.M. Hideout is located in Lumbridge forest, north-west of Lumbridge Castle and is easily accessible by teleporting to the entrance of the Thieves' Guild using your Master Camouflage outfit and walking from there.
To open the trapdoor, players need to pick the lock on it with their Thieving skill. Once inside, you can pickpocket any H.A.M. Member you find there:
Presets and Afkwarden
Preset Notes
⬥ If gathering Memory Shards
, you can unequip Scripture of Bik
and replace it with Charos' clue carrier
to free up an extra inventory slot.
⬥ Alternatively, disabling Memory Shard collection at the Memorial of Guthix allows you to carry Charos' clue carrier in your inventory while still equipping the Scripture of Bik
.
