It is a common misconception that robbing a bank is similar to any other felony; you just need some guts and guns. The truth, however, is more often than not far from just "heyt'isastickuphandthegoldover" kind of scenario often portrayed in movies and story books. The problem in discussion is further compounded by the fact that in Midgaard, cityguards are often around, especially near the Bank of Midgaard. Located above the ever popular Grunting Boar Inn, a favourite haunt with off-duty cityguards and the bank is always crowded with cityguards, citizens and janitors; all potential witnesses to the intended crime. To make matters worse, with the latest donations ending with aplomb success, Ivar Security (TM) has just installed the latest high-end bank vault security systems, I.V.A.R version no.$$4u. The I.V.A.R, which stands for Impregnable Vaults Are Ready, is one of the most advanced anti-bank robbery systems available. The latest version, no.$$4u, was heavily patched from its predecessor, no.$$29; it also includes the latest patch that prevents spouses of account holders to "snoop" into their spouses' account balances. These systems make it impossible to fraud the Bank of Midgaard, let alone rob it. The final straw on the donkeys back would be that Farouk, who completely annihilates most players, has taken upon him to guard the Bank of Midgaard as well as the Temple of Mota; Hassans fearsome cousin is but a short run seu away.

So, to rob or not to rob, that is the question. It is easy to rob the Bank of Midgaard, the hard part is to do it successfully. In the past, many has attempted to achieve the taboo task and failed, resulting in bans and devastations of nuclear proportions. So, to put it simply, the answer to "How to rob a bank in Midgaard?" is "You cant do it successfully and dont want to".
