I was hoping someone could help me with the minimum skills required in lockpicking for level 5, 6 and 7 maps. Specifically: Minimum LP for level 5? 99 per Keza Minimum LP for level 6? 100 per Keza Minimum LP for level 7? 100 per Keza Does GM detect actually help Lockpicking; if so, how? I found this old thread: https://uorforum.com/threads/cartography-and-lockpicking.21462/ From the above, I assumed that because 95.1 + GM detect was sufficient for level 6 maps, 95 + GM detect would be enough for level 5. However, after digging up a level 5, I can attest that 95 LP (shown) + GM detect is not enough for a level 5 chest. Any help here?
Ya, this has always been a bit of a mystery. It's supposed to be 95 LP for lvl4, 99 LP for a lvl5 and GM for a lvl6. However, the treasure chests dug up might ignore detect hidden skill and only check LP, unlike dungeon chests.
The dug up chests definitely don't ignore detect hidden. When I was training lockpicking, I remember I had to train detect quickly in order to get myself over the hump and unlock a lvl 6 map.
