Obtaining lockpicks?

[BrutalxBrandon]

Never had any knowledge of them and I need them for DT cause I'm just now getting to it.. heh. Tip it says I can purchase them at the Rogue's Den but I'm there and I don't see anywhere to buy them or rogues to pickpocket for that matter? Also how many are needed for DT?

There is a guy there named Martin Thwaitt (sp?) who sells them. I believe you need certain agility and/or thieving levels to buy from him, though. If you are unable to get them, maybe someone who is training cooking will buy them for you.

 

I went through about 50 or so when I did Desert Treasure, but that is strictly a matter of luck.

 

Edit: just to be clear, the Rogues Den is under the pub in Burthorpe, in case you might be looking elsewhere :)

Of course I wasn't looking around the training camp thing frantically... thank you! =]

Also for future reference they spawn in the agility dungeon next to Yanille, or you could even pick-pocket bandits near the chest to receive both anti-poison and lock picks.

As for how many you will need, I used about 20 ish. <_<

Ah so I guess I went a little overboard with 80 lol. :^_^:

Can never have too many lockpicks, especially for DT (I went through 3 invs of lockpicks and food trying to get that [bleep] cross). Also you will get poisoned and hurt at the chest so bring a method to heal yourself and some anti-poisons.

Hey it's better to have extra then not enough... I only brought 5 with me the first time, boy was that a mistake! haha

I only had one lockpick, I figured it wouldn't be hard...I spent the rest of the time pickpocketing bandits for a lockpick, breaking it, and repeating! So you did a good thing with 80...wish I was that smart!

[cowmaster187]

wow. that is funny if i remember correctly i used like two. i admit i did have like 75 thieving when i did the quest because i was lazy. but hey

 

any way good luck

If nothing else, you can sell the extra lockpicks on the GE. They're in pretty high demand and sell for much more than what you paid.

Martin Thwait in Rogues Den however you can also try just buying it from ge ;)
