Lock picks should not disappear if unlock is successful

[jerrygreen]

It’s already uneasy to not fail lockpicking, why consume lockpick on success?

Either make it – no mini games, a chest will consume lockpick and that’s all. Boring but fair.

Or, if there’s minigame, I don’t mind that, but take lockpick ONLY on failure.

why not just telleport loot into your backpack and telleport ya to the extract at the start of each round

circle should at least run around 1-2 times before destrroyng the lockpick

the current implementation is braindead, lockpicks are relatively rare now imagine a new player finally managing to bring together a lockpick and finding a treasure chest that actually needs to be picked; now he touches it and within 0.5 seconds his lockpick is gone

this is the worst implementation of lockpicking i have seen in a game, it doesn´t even make sense

[jerrygreen]

Yeah exactly. Even after spending like 10 lockpicks I still can’t time it properly. Then 20. Still can’t do it with one attempt. Barely can time it properly maybe like 50% of times. Will never get used to it.

But I would actually not complain for THIS HARD mechanic if skill would be actually rewarding and leave my lock pick in case of success. I would be double-motivated to not fail it.

But right now, even if I succeed, and get a couple average items from chest, but then I lose my lockpick, having to grind this iron ore again.

It’s not fair they take lock pick in case of success. It doesn’t even make sense. In real life, do you lose your lockpick if you successfully opened a lock? NO.

i mean either the lock picks should be mor abundant and the picking is hard or vice versa, currently its hard to get them and even if you have them its most likely a fluke

i also thought that at least the circle is consistent, my last attempt had the area i need to hit right in the first 0.2 seconds

it also doesn´t help that you are never 100% sure when the minigame starts

i already had the feeling that it is affected by some stat and cleric most likely is not the most proficient on it, thanks for the info

[jerrygreen]

Nobody cares about resourcefulness okay? Lockpicking is hard we get it. But why consume lockpick in case of success? It doesn’t make any sense, other than to make player grind more for no reason.

[jerrygreen]

You basically didn’t answer the question, pretending it’s okay situation. Lockpicks shouldn’t disappear upon success.

using rogue lock pick perk to practice for free

[jerrygreen]

Yes, practice is good. Still hard but really helps.
Still, lockpicks shouldn’t disappear upon success.

This is like one of the few reason to play rogue you can lockpîck infinitely.

the sweet spot is too early almost every time, its fast as ♥♥♥♥ and theres no warning.. this is the worst mechanic ingame hands down

[MagikarpMagi]

I figured it just gets stuck in the lock on success.
