Mmm. Thankfully my GW ability is somewhat better than my userpage creation skills, although as you can see, that is not saying much. I shall un-bastardise this at some other time.

Economic value of using a discounted lockpick on Normal Mode chests
This table is taken from the article on lockpicks, then editted to take into account the 300g reduction in lockpick cost that outpost holders (such as myself) benefit from. The "keyprice" field remains unchanged. If looking for 600g kurzick/luxon chests, refer to the new 480g relation.

Note that 1250g keys actually cost more than reduced lock picks, so the break even chance is 100%.

1 This is the bonus given to your chance of not breaking the lock pick when using on a particular tier of normal mode chests.

Use table below to calculate your chance.

Lock pick survival chance
Bold numbers show where it is not economical to use discounted lockpicks on 600g chests. Ie, if you have r5 lucky, r4 treasure, or some combination of the two titles that brings you to a non-bold number, there is no reason not to use lockpicks instead of the 600g keys in the long run. (You may of course make a loss on keys initially, but statistically you will get a return in the long run).
