Practice Lock?

[Ursyra]

Can someone tell me if it's possible to reset/relock a practice lock? (And how?) The amount of components seems a touch crazy compared to the single skill point I've gained from it.

Thanks!

Pretty sure they're done after you open em. I remember making a ton for one rogue and after he used em up they were essentially worthless. Now this was a while ago, so I don't know if it has been changed at all.

I just made some last night and played with them. THey are still useless after you pick them.
Kinda blows the point of them if you ask me. All those resources and cost for 1 point in skill when you could just go to the mill (for alliance anyway)

To supplement your lockpicking needs, make sure to pick up fishing as well. My buddy back in beta (Hunter with cat pet) would fish a ton and I'd be unlocking up to 10 boxes for him each outting. Plus, you get plenty of sell loot to save up for your mount. Not exactly as exciting as sneaking up on your enemy and showing him what for. But it's a great cash resource and you'll pick up plenty of lockboxes for skill increases.

You can get up to 100 skill on the practice boxes in the Redridge Mountains (About 103 maybe). You can get up to 160ish on the box in the tower for the rogue poison quest. You can get 160+ on the Gnomeragon Workshop Door.

Also, pickpocket humanoid and undead mobs in your level range to get junkboxes that can get you skill increases.
