Question on Lockpicking
Question on Lockpicking
OK I'm getting aggravated here because I've been macroing lockpicking for 4 hours with no single gain.
My lockpicking is 75.3 shown 73.4 real. I have a GM Carp/GM Tinker box that I have been trying to unlock. I have also swapped back to my 50/50 box for a short term to see if that stimulates some gains but Ive hd no success. WTF am I doing wrong or is something broken....

Re: Question on Lockpicking
Don't think it has anything to do with DH. I'd lower my DEX, or buy a 75/75 box.

Make sure you aren't at skill cap with all skills pointing up.....
Re: Question on Lockpicking
My dex is at 25 and I'm nowhere near skill cap

Re: Question on Lockpicking
I have a 70/70 box if you would like to borrow it and give that a shot. Just curious, where did you get the GM box? Are you certain it is GM?

Re: Question on Lockpicking
Honestly I'd be afraid to borrow it. I don't have a house and do all my AFK macroing at a bank and would be afraid I'd get greifed and lose it. Thanks for the offer though.

Well if you want, for 3000gp you buy a whole set (30/50/70/GM) from a vendor on the patio north of yew abbey

Spend the money and do as he says - they are legit - got my LP to 95 displayed (93.8 Real because of dex bump) off of those vendor boxes - just go east of Empath Abbey a little ways - they are on the patio.BardOfLegend wrote:Well if you want, for 3000gp you buy a whole set (30/50/70/GM) from a vendor on the patio north of yew abbey
As far as the griefing, just macro in almost any city except Brit.... also Vesper's getting a little dangerous lately too.
Before I placed my houses, I used the small room at the Occlo bank with all the chests in it....
Re: Question on Lockpicking
...or you could raise your DEX temporarily and probably start getting gains....maybe, 99% sure.

Re: Question on Lockpicking
Pirul - just curious.... how would Dex effect Skill gain in OP's instance of having mid 70's - and wouldn't raising dex Increase the "fluff" bonus?

Re: Question on Lockpicking
If he's below the minimum skill (with fluff) to successfully pick the gm box, he gets no gains. Dex increases the fluff, hopefully to a point where he can pick the gm box. After a bit of that picking, he can drop his dex to speed his gains when he's well into the clear.

Re: Question on Lockpicking
Understood - or possibly just get a 70/75 box?
