Locksmith path (Anonymous)Sat 26-Dec-15 10:05 AM

#62036, "Please look at the cost of the locksmith path"


          

I've mastered Advanced picklock, but I have not found a chest or door I can open that I could not have easily obtained the key. Please look at the path cost, since the gold farming was limited by the way gold reloads and the two gold farming areas have both been rewritten.

There are still dozens of doors and containers that are only available to characters with advanced pick (or those who have the proper key), including a few that otherwise cannot be opened (they have no key).

Likewise, there are still many, many gold piles that aren't the new style "accumulating" type.

Then perhaps gentle walk should be way more costly.

Pretty useless nowadays that all the spots have been removed. The fact the new Timberlands stuff can't be picked either made it a complete waste.

I'll chime in and say that I don't think there is any place in the game for an unpickable lock when there are 3 skills and 3? edges dedicated to PC's picking locks...
