second chance at missed lockpick attempts?

[Zunymitshu]

do you get one or do you need to make a new character?

You get another shot when the character levels up, which is really dumb imo considering the tabletop rules let you retry and take 20 on such checks.

[Sigmarsson]

You get a new chance when you increase your Trickery skill, so I guess that would limit it till only when you gain a new level.

One attempt per character, until they either level up, or gain more Trickery points.

would equiping and unequipping equipment that enhances trickery give you another chance?


edit: just tried, didn't work.

save before doing any lock pick then just load and repeat

It's the problem with not having thieves tools, and it's a optional rule that DM's can use when it comes to failed lockpickings... which sucks... but whatever.
