Pick Locks Skill Question

Post by jparm3rd »

I have DLCE 1.5 and noticed that GameBanshee's Gameplay Tips recommend that one not place more than 1 point in the Pick Locks skill unless playing CE. What is it about CE that makes placing more then 1 point in the Pick Locks skill viable or necessary? Just curious, not flamming. :laugh:

The original Dungeon Lords only had something like two locks that weren't trapped, and in both cases you could use a key to open them. The CE adds a few more locks without traps.

Thanks for responding. I'm wondering if its worth it to boost pick locks just to get into 4-5 chests. Perhaps using bash is better and save those skill points?

I sort of liked the lock-picking mini-game, so I always opened locks that way. I'm not sure that you can bash locks that don't have traps.
