A Rogue's Guide to Lockpicking

By Jurinsthea Smith


Lockpicking in WoW is a rogue skill. This is actually necessary under the said class for it allows one to open locked chests, lockboxes and doors. Oftentimes, many rogue players undermined this ability. For one, they can't appreciate this and has no valuable use on their end. But unfortunately, it behaves the other way around. Like other skills such as fishing and mining, lockpicking is equally necessary.

Lockpicking acts like as a profession. Initially it gives one rogue minimal skills in accordance with that job. It is now up to the player to practice and train to continue picking locks. Specific skill level is needed according to different types of difficulties. To support you in your quest against this occupation, there are rogue trainers who can point to areas that have footlockers according to your level.

Some rogues who want to practice a profession lockpicking always start at level 1. To increase your skills you might want to get some practice locks from various engineers to be able to raise your level. You can actually reach level 80 using this procedure. There are also tasks to be able to assist you with your leveling. Some may try Althen's Mill in Redridge Mountains for Alliance Rogues. For the Horde rogues, they can choose to go to the Merchant Coast and the Amani Catacombs.

To further enhance your level, you can move on to Desolace where you will see the Waterlogged Footlockers. You will also find Mossy Footlockers here that can get you to level 225th If you do not want to dive into the water, you can skip to the Angor Fortress in Badlands. Here you will see the Battered Footlockers and Dented Footlockers. Here skill 175 is required for the two areas to open.

When you reach skill level 205, you can go to Scarlet Monastery doors. You can do this to unlock the doors, but there are 3 mobs that you need to face. You can do this again and again until you reach 225. After that you can go to Searing Sorge and down to the sunken Temple to reach 255.

Finally to attain the higher levels of 300 and above, you can opt to wind up with the Reinforced Junkboxes. Another alternative is to head to Dalaran particularly in the Violet Hold door. And in addition the Feralfen Village holds the most viable place intended for levels 380 and above. It contains the doors to Karazhan, Shattered Halls and Arcatraz. Finally the Stratholme doors are intended for levels 400 that can be open to multiple attempts in a single area.

As a final note, lockpicking should be something that needs to be mastered by any rogue players in the World of Warcraft. It does not only tap unlocking doors and chests just for the sake of doing it. It in fact contains many benefits and advantages and will prove useful if you proceed to other places. Thus lockpicking in WoW must be pondered upon not only to its intended profession but with other jobs as well.
