Detective is one of four professions introduced in Crenopolis, which revolves around preventing and solving crimes around the city.

Spotting thieves

If the player speaks with Sergeant Fowler in the Guardhouse Lobby, she will mention that one of the stalls is being targeted more than the others, resulting in more customers stealing from said stall for more experience per hour. On a targeted stall it is possible to catch around 2 thieves a minute or 120 thieves an hour. Note that the Experience per hour values in the table below assume a targeted stall and 120 arrests per hour.

* The Hide Stall thieves will NOT spawn until you talk to Sergeant Fowler.

Crime Den Raids

Crime Den Raids consist of breaking into an area and subduing ~5 combatants. There are two areas per Crime Den, when one raid is completed it will remain unlocked with no mob spawns while its counterpart area will then re-lock and generate a new raid. Clearing one of the Crime Dens opens new areas that can be used as shortcuts while completing Merchants' Guild bounties, offering alternate routes between vendors.

Assuming on-level full green armor and a blue weapon, Crime Den Raids tend to become fully AFK ~10 Watchperson levels beyond their Detective requirement.

Investigations

The player can collect one investigation bounty at a time by starting at the Investigation Board. By following the hints in the description of the bounties list, clues are collected and depending on their relevance, one arrest back at the Investigation Hall can be made. An important thing to consider is using information on the suspects as the first option would result in their arrest. More complex clues, steps, auras, suspects, and descriptions are added at higher difficulties
