Lockpicking Training
The quickest way to train Lockpicking skill, is to use a locked Paragon box. Consult the chart below to determine what level of Paragon box you should be picking for skill gain.
- use iron lockpicks
- find a pin that you will always fail on (a pin in the wrong order)
- continue picking this same pin over and over again to get skill gain
- you will sometimes trigger the trap, so be prepared to cure and heal yourself
| Type | Start Picking at this Skill Amount |
