Lockpick

Lock picks were released with the addition of hard mode. All hard mode chests require lock picks instead of keys. Lock picks have a small percentage chance of surviving the opening of a Chest. This percentage depends on the user's ranks in the Lucky and Treasure Hunter titles. Opening a Locked Chest does add 1 point toward the Treasure Hunter title.

Lock picks also work on all normal mode chests.

Availablity
Lock picks are available from all merchants (except those in Pre-Searing). They are also a random drop in hard mode areas.

Lockpick survival chance at level 20

 * The percent chance of a lock pick not breaking after use in hard mode is:
 * (Character level / 2) + (3 * Treasure Hunter ranks) + (2 * Lucky ranks)


 * For a player that has reached level 20, lockpicks survive 10%...41% of openings.

Lockpick survival chance with Normal mode chests
Add the corresponding bonus percentage to the basic retention rate of the lockpick. The break-even point tells how much your basic retention rate (from level and acquired Treasure Hunter/Lucky ranks) must at least be for lock pick to be as cost effective as the respective key.
