Types of Locks and Picks
Certain lockpicks will need to be used on certain types of locks. ANALYZing the lock will reveal what type of lock it is. This has only partially been introduced into the game and is waiting on the Lore rewrite to be fully incorporated. Quality and style will be separated out, so it will be possible to have a master quality pick of the following styles. It was mentioned that grandmaster quality would be able to open all styles of locks, but be restricted to the thief guild.
- Although difficult to spot at first, a thin hole along the bottom of the lock appears to be the key receptacle.
