Triple key/lockpicks drops AND double lucky/unlucky points
tmakinen
Just the 1-2 chests around the snow worm area. If you use the resign trick to rezone directly to the Boreal portal you can do each run in 35-50 seconds.

Shame... poor raptors are gonna get it again this weekend

. Thanks for the clarification...

I guess I'll give this event a try, since I just got Golden from the last festival maybe that will help with some of the picking ratio.
But only for a bit, since I can't afford that many locks, my entire account savings went into that bloody title...

Proabably a good time to do the Dwarven Boxing Tournament on HM with my Assassin then considering there's a chest there on just about every run.

Prediction Time!!!
How long after the start of the event will it take for someone to post the cry thread about how they are getting no lockpicks?
Bonus: How many posts saying "3x0=0" will be posted in the first 5 minutes?
I feel like we've been here before.

ROI is not a big concern to me since Treasure Hunter is the final title I need to reach GWAMM and I'm throwing almost all of my money in it. Some money will return with selling unidentified golds and dumping all the purples at the merchant, but it will still cost me a pretty penny to max.

Or like the old theory of double green weekends
a 0.0000001% drops rate is still only 0.0000002% :P
So now we have a 0.0000003% chance of getting a LP
Aba
Outta about 20 raptor runs i got nothing, no golds, no picks.
Polgara Val
No lockpicks for me either so far, looks like they havent updated yet.

it doesnt look like its started, or working correctly, I didnt think lockpicks where classed as extermly rare to begin with.
Ive done multiple raptor runs, and also tried snowman lair runs with no luck.
Either i am unlucky or it hasnt started.
Im guessing a new build wouldnt be required as it would be a streamed / stealth update

Triple Pick doesn't mean it will drop like like a special weekend event, remember that pick drop rates are bad without the triple weekend.

I believe that I have said 3x0=0 somewhere already...
Juc
Like with all events it should be server side, meaning it should activate at the designated time without any further updating from the client.
I can confirm that it has started though because I got 500 lucky points for retaining a pick. However maybe the drop rate part isn't working correctly?

Aye, just did some wall scraping in GWEN nm, made a good few K on lucky and and can confirm it was 500 for a keep; didn't get 1 pick from 4 areas, so either we are all very unlucky or they forgot to up the drop rate
Polgara Val
Still nothing, maybe they will update it a bit later on

I know these usually begin at a certain time but maybe this one is starting later than usual?
R.Shayne
Working fine for me but have terrible luck on keeping my picks, I have a 55% chance of keeping it but I am averaging 38%.
Incandecree
I know it started at noon Pacific time. I was getting double lucky and unlucky points. I know it is just a string of bad lucky but I have a 71% retention rate outside of Boreal Station and had 7 retains out of 25, far less than 71%.

Cleared Plains of Jarin solo. 207 enemies killed, 1 lockpick. Screw this, I'm gonna work on leveling my PVE Assassin so I can do some Shadow Form pillaging.

masta_yoda
rofl did like 100 vermin zones , atleast 1500 vermins slain only 3 lockpicks
cosyfiep
no lockpicks, but not expecting to get any since (as its been said already) 3 x 0 = 0
however, I did get a key to drop when I was running thru mapping in the elona reach!

erm, obviously this is a hoax. Just got the reminder to stop playing cos its been 3 hours since i log in and NOTHING. also not getting any unlucky point for not getting any lockpick as well.
extra note: drops are worse then normal as well in Hard Mode
this weekend sucks!
