Suggestions for lock picking? My personal experience: setting up timer (the timer only shows when successfuil), using food affi (pizza 10hrs) and SB. Still in the beginning, around 30 skill. I found that changing targets is crucial. If doing so (2 targets at minimum) I get a skill tick every 1-4 attempts. Off deed/on deed may make a difference, too (still testing). Today. I tried to pick my small chest off deed, and got a tick after 29 (!) attempts. This may also be connected to a bug/misbehaviour of RNG (or java/os random implementation) which is sometimes "stuck on failure". Edit: As to lockpicks, they need to be not less than one decimal in ql below the ql of the lock, otherwise, an error message is triggered "You need a more advanced lock pick for this high quality lock."

up again, thanks Drogos

May be a silly idea, and not extremely important. 😎 But in fact, lock picks area tool, a thievery tool. Would be handy to have 2 or 3 in toolbelt when underway, picking the small chest in inv without having to activate, replacing the broken ones.

On this picture you see, from left to right, an ordinary gold necklace, silver anchor, silver translucent, silver aquamarine, silver goat, and silver arachnoid necklaces. When worn, they show their real models. I am not sure whether that is a bug or just work left to do some time. Would be nice though.

Congrats Emoo, great job!

There is no reason for rogue lockpicking in PvE, and picking off deed gates is unpractical where a large maul grants entrance faster and more effectively. And btw., I am not aware of bans for off deed lock picking during all my time in Wurm. I just recently learnt that it is not allowed. Not that I did it often. It is ways more convenient to have a set of small chests, or just one locked container for it. You can even have it on inv or mount saddle bags. So no drama. Grinding lock picking with the ingame timer is convenient. And the gob camps won't stay for in 3 weeks only. Plenty of time to learn.

Peace, Aeris. Please consider for a minute that developers are human too, and maybe feel an urge to defend when their work is attacked, and the extreme efforts they made to remove the adverse effects from the changes are misrespected or diminished. I already wrote in a different thread that I felt that the great changes of portals, actions etc, at a time were probably more than could be stemmed in such a short time, and I have a lot of respect how the damage was repaired. That extends to the GM too, who had tons of additional workload for a long time. (that said, I still hope for certain older event items becoming impable, and modern renderer being possible to be used again)

+1 fully agree

please cod a pizza with lock picking affi. Test meal result is medium wooden shield.

Agreed. Only PvP players may have a headstart as they had the motivation to grind lock picking all time. Same with stealth. To be honest, I even have no idea how to grind it .

Thanks Dale. On behalf of its mayor, kindly add Maes Knoll 4095 2536 (pm me if clarifications needed)

Indeed, that was the motivation for my proposal. Until now, the event jewelry items (and shoulder pad) had been non impable, and obviously, the devs abandoned that policy or omission for the recent event. So it would be consequential to extend it to others like maple leaf necklace, pumpkin shoulder pad, and finally, the pearl necklace, which is not an event item, but one of the rarest craftable items.

Thanks, that was it
