Lucky Title
Quaker
Since your chance of keeping a lock pick relies upon your "Lucky" title, how do you increase your lucky title? Do you have to wait to play stupid games in the next "fun" weekend, or use up all your 4-leaf clovers, or is there another way?

I lead to believe it relies upon your treasure hunter and wisdom title tracks

no its written in the wiki, tresure hunter and lucky

....the ranks you earn in the Treasure Hunter and Lucky title tracks will increase both the chance that the lockpick will work, and that it will remain intact after each use. |

lol, looks like the last 3 people to reply to this post have NOT even read the original post and understood what the question is about.
At the moment apart from the solutions the OP mentioned there is NO way to increase the lucky/unlucky title.
This is rather annoying, what would have been cool would have been if you successfully kept a lockpick after opening a chest you got lucky points and if your lockpick broke you got unlucky points.
Honestly dont know why anet have not put this feature in.
Give us an effective way to get the lucky/unlucky titles maxed plz anet.

And now Lucky actually has a purpose.... what the heck are those of us who went for Unlucky instead supposed to do?
[I only wanted "Unlucky" so I could max it to "Hated" because it sounds nifty.]

It was a stupid idea to give this title a meaning. It is acquired in such a stupid way that it hurts (stand in a corner for x straight hours).

I think it would make a lot more sense if your lucky title went up one point for each lock successfully picked. As it sits now, your lucky title is unaffected by a successful pick, yet this title contributes toward the picks effectiveness. It makes no sense that a successfully picked lock does not increase your lucky title. The only way to increase your lucky title is to wait for certain events, and that's rather pointless. This should be amended, in my opinion.

in one update i thought it said that u would get points towards ur lucky title when the lockpick didnt break.. or did they change this? In which case im happy cause i dont want to gain another lucky level, i only wanted it so I could have "charmed" ^^

It's really unfortunate they made it reliant on this totally random skill track imo. Where's the boost for a dozen other things people put effort into... lucky doesn't deserve special treatment. :/

Until there is a way to get "lucky" up higher then "unlucky" I am buying no more lockpicks, they have been one use only for me and the most have been purples, VERY expensive so-so purples too :/

At any rate, whether the Lucky title has any affect on lockpicks or not doesn't answer the question - how do you increase you're Lucky rank, even if you just want to increase it for fun?
Btw - the "Unlucky" title is not mentioned as having any affect on the lockpick.
watrah
ppl be more reasonable every opwn give 1 point that mean u need to open 1,000,000 chest to max ur title to get only 10% and u know how much u will pay for this Lockpick if each cost 1.5k ouch it will take for ever to get that kind of money (omg 1,500,000,000g ) and how u think u will gewt that kinda if money after they nurf the solo farming that mean forget this title

I have a level 3 treasure hunter title and was chest farming locked chests and 3 out of 4 of my lock picks broke in the process.
MithranArkanere
There is a suggestion in sardelac, to make high-end chests increase the title.
How? Purples incresse unlucky, gold ones inclrese lucky.
Also they have sugested that picking a gold drop (like when you picked a golden egg) increased the lucky title.
Maybe that whay it would be a good way to increase it, instead of just sitting AFK in the br
There were some more ideas... but its true... currently the lucky and unlucky are a bit... 'dumb' to get.
You can't be in all events and pick the items, of have the character logged 24 hours getting tickets.

Vilaptca
So basically, its not worth it for me to even attempt this, because I have absolutely nothing in my Lucky title track...
Yay...why would they base that of a title like that. I hope that in the near future they add ways for us to work on this title that isn't during events only. Otherwise they can take back their lockpicks, as they'll be worthless to most of the GW community.

Its very contradictory to the Guild Wars 'no-grind' ethos.

im R5 Treasure and R0 Lucky, im breaking me locks every 2 chests.. so if i do 600g keys im wasting money.. pointless imo, unless ur running in hardmode, which is just making the chests 1.5k chests, therefore better gold drop rate.so yeh, another way to get the lucky title would be cool.

If you did read it, and "understood it quit well" (quite well?), the quote you gave from GW.com only says the same thing - that the chance of the lockpick remaining intact relies upon the rank in the "lucky" title. It may rely on your level of Treasure Hunter too, and it's not clear which title affects what or by how much, but the Lucky title is a factor. |
Wow, you try to help some people out by pointing out another option that is available to them and you get an obnoxious child correcting typos. Sad. Next time don't bother to "post (or even go to) forums" if you don't actually want help.
Hope I didn't offend you again with any further typos.

"pick a lock = 1 luck"
Yeah those are good ideas, and should be put in but don't matter in the long run
cause 250 000 to get rank 3 =) but every little bit counts
getting golds should give you 1 luck too, just like the eggs for treasure hunter.
and to Quaker, there is no other method except (fesitval games, none here yet, and clovers)

Where are you getting this information that there is a Tier 6 called cursed by fate? That is what is wrong.

Anyway, I am happy with the fact that my Lucky title has some use now. Now there is a use besides being the biggest gold sink in the creation of man.

Whine about it...that seems to be what the majority of people on this forum do. Honestly some of us chose to do unlucky...oh well it was a choice we made. OMG it came to mean something in the future...oh woe is me, Anet sux...fix it, its not fair. (SotiCoto this was not an attack on you...you just asked the question so well)
On a side note all the jerks that were saying ppl going for lucky were stupid noobs...jokes on you now huh?
Buster
All my lockpicks have been breaking and getting worthless golds and some purples I won't be using. I sold them but you simply just don't make a profit if you keep buying lockpicks unless you get something really rare.
*Alexiel*
I have a rank 4 treasure hunter with rank 3 lucky, and my lockpicks still break like hell, to be honest. =/

I would certainly like a way to work on my lucky / unlucky title, around 600k and 40k atm.. really want rank5 titles, but r6 and r7 are kinda gross
HolyHawk
Yeah, I'm just treasure hunter lv1, and lockpicks break everytime. At least the purples I get while vanquishing get the amount of gold back, and locked chest have given me a lot of gold itens (all crap, but they sell very high to merchant).
I'm sure there are ideas in sanderlac, but they need to introduce ways to get luck and unluck title in normal gameplay, such as, everytime you successfuly savage a component without breaking the weapon, you get 5 lucky points, if it breaks, 5 unluck; getting gold drops automatically gives you 10 points, while purples give 6 and rare materials 4. Just ideas, nothing precise, but at least you don't need to farm once or twice an year for them.

they need to up the percentage a little bit, give us a way to increase the lucky title (or just change it to something else) or reduce the price of the damn picklocks.
We don't have the /.gold command in live ya know!
Note: also, pls change the lucky title so that it's no longer counts tickets but just points. Tickets is too restrictive; you can be lucky in so many ways it's mind-boggling. (like whoever gets a gold crystalline deserves the Golden title )

I am expecting an infinite way (not event) to make lucky points in GW:EN or wherever.
