Hello, i was wondering if there already a thread about lockpicks and/or lucky title points included?

if not i was wondering where would be the best place to do 50g chest lockpick runs?... only for the lucky title of course. I tried old Ascalon but there are too many snares/knockdowns/hexes etc

Thanx.

I think you're more looking for Shadow Form + sprint skills or spellbreaker + sprint skills. Old Ascalon should be no problem that way imo. If you have a warrior as main, spellbreaker is out of the question though.

I assume that you are looking to work on your Lucky title as cheaply as possible. True? Unfortunately, running low end chests may not be your best option. According to the Lockpick article on GuildWiki, you need a 97% retention rate just to break even in the cost of lockpicks.

And that corresponds to a max Lucky *and* a max Treasure Hunter title! And if you had those, you wouldn't be looking to run 50gp chests, right?

I've been running the chests outside of Boreal Station, and I've been keeping stats. After selling the junk from the chests, each chest is costing me an average of 300 g.p. By the time I get my Treasure Hunter title, the average cost per chest will be down to 167 g.p. per chest. (This is due to increased retention rates from higher Lucky and Treasure Hunter.) And, I will be pretty darn near maxing my Lucky title as well.

If you are interested in more stats, let me know, and I can post them.

A link was posted, so no need for this.
