Throughout the years, players have gotten used to the idea of them having to partake in some complex minigame to pick locks in their favorite video games. One of the problems players might bump into in Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders is that the developers often didn’t explain basic mechanics of the game in the tutorial, which means lockpicking can be a bit confusing and a bit random for most. In this guide we will explain how lockpicking works in Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders and how to open any chest you might find scattered through the forests.
Lockpicking Guide for Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders
As players travel through the forests and the camps of bandits and soldiers of the Crown, they will likely find orange shining chests hidden in various corners of these locations. When you approach them, a button will appear on the screen, saying that you should press it to pick the lock of the chest.
After pressing the button, players will see a bar fill up, exactly how it looks when crafting items in the menu. Most players will likely think that they have to press something again while the bar fills up, since many have likely failed the lockpick attempt once the bar is full.
Well, in Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders, lockpicking is random. When you press to pick a lock of a chest, you instantly lose a Lockpick and then you have to wait for the bar to fill up. Once it’s full, you will randomly either open the chest or fail. If you fail, you can attempt to pick the lock again, with a higher chance of success.
So, the secret to picking every lock in this game is to carry more than enough Lockpicks around every time Robin Hood leaves the village. A slot can carry 10 of them at the same time, so always bring 10 Lockpicks with you all the time, which you can craft at the Blacksmith.
And that is all you need to know about lockpicking in Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders. Check out other interesting guides and articles:
