Lockpick Update

* Lockpicks have been updated to grant Lucky and Unlucky title points. Players will now receive 250 points towards their Lucky title if they successfully retain a lockpick after use, and 25 points towards their Unlucky title whenever one breaks.

Miscellaneous

* Made preparations for the Guild Wars Birthday Party weekend even

looks good in my opinion, let this be a lesson to those who say Aet doesnt listen

wow thats really cool! shame that my chest runner is on a different account that my one with my lucky/ unlucky, but maybe this will be my chance to get it.

Thanks anet

Nice, good to hear theres more to them then tossin 1.5k out continuously.

Perfect update ANET. Kudos!

GOOOD

Now we always benefit for buying lockpicks!

GG

thank you

Sweet! Awesome stuff!

Cynical me : So with this good news there has to be a nerf..... there's always a down side with an anet update.....


What! - no down side - kills Cynical me with dagger+2!

Wow Anet - seriously good update - listened to the community once again and did the right thing.
Kudos!

In the words of Borat "Niiiiice!"

=o Yaaay!! Was hoping for this! Prosperous here I come ^-^ Thanks for listening to the fans anet

Sounds good to me !

Very nice. Pleasant surprise.

"Sugar rush with a vengence"? o.O? Ok, you've got my attention.

Anet does not always listen... but this update makes lockpicks useful... but with the current money drops I doubt I will buy a lot of lockpicks

w00t. Good job, ANet. A lot of people who afk'd for the title are going to be outraged, but I personally think this was a needed addition. Now Lucky/Unlucky actually works with Lockpicks.

way to go off topic O.O

you know, I never wanted to waste gold on these lockpicks. I mean I only have 34k under my belt across all my chars, now bare with me, I'm not the type to farm often at all and the fast accumulation of gold that I have been experiencing under Hard Mode seemed great enough in my eyes; But it didn't convince me to spend 1.5k on the lockpicks.

I'm looking foward to buying lockpicks now that there's more to them. ANET thank you very much for being the best towards your fans.

Found the hidden extra's yet?
It might have a lower drop rate now.

*Goes Chest running*

I'm guilty as charge up to Favored, Unfavored but I am glad to see another way to advance this title. It was a pretty lame way anyway to get a title, just AFK'ing all night long.

This makes them worth it in my mind, not only do you get a high end item but the chance of upping one of two very expensive titles,

if you have spent 60 gold per point, and playing nine rings cost 10 tickets, which is 150 gold a shot, so this is way cheaper.

Ring of fortune costs two ticket so that 30 gold a game if you lose, maybe cheaper but most play 9 rings to up the title.

You also up the treasure hunter title doing this, and the wisdom one if you get a gold, and then if it doesn't break you get even more out of it!

This is a perfect update, even if the drop rate of them is reduced
