How To Lockpick in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Lockpicking is a valuable skill in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, allowing you to access locked doors, chests, and other containers. Mastering this skill can help you find valuable items, avoid unnecessary confrontations, and navigate the world more effectively. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to lockpick in the game:

Getting Started with Lockpicking in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

1. Acquire Lockpicks: Before you can start lockpicking, you need to have lockpicks in your inventory. You can purchase them from merchants or find them in various locations around the game world.

2. Equip Lockpicks: Open your inventory and equip a lockpick. Make sure you have at least one lockpick ready for use.

The Lockpicking Mini-Game in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

When you attempt to pick a lock, a mini-game will start. Here’s how it works:

1. Interact with the Lock: Approach the lock you want to pick and interact with it (default E key on PC).

2. Enter the Mini-Game: A new screen will appear, showing the interior of the lock and a cursor.

3. Find the Sweet Spot: Move the cursor around the lock until it turns gold. This indicates that you’ve found the correct position to start picking the lock.

4. Rotate the Lock: Use the rotation button (default D key on PC) to turn the lock counter-clockwise while keeping the cursor in the gold position. If the cursor turns gray, you’ve moved out of position, and the lockpick may break

5. Complete the Rotation: Continue rotating the lock until it opens completely. Be careful not to rotate too far, as this will break the lockpick and make noise, potentially alerting nearby NPCs.

Tips for Successful Lockpicking in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

• Practice Makes Perfect: Lockpicking can be challenging at first, so practice on easier locks to improve your skills.

• Use Thievery Skills: As you level up your Thievery skill, lockpicking will become easier. Invest perk points in Thievery-related skills to make lockpicking more manageable.

• Stay Cautious: Lockpicking can attract attention, so make sure no one is nearby when you attempt to pick a lock. Lockpicking at night or in secluded areas can help you avoid detection.

• Have Spare Lockpicks: Always carry extra lockpicks, as they can break easily if you’re not careful.

• Use Potions: Consuming potions like Quickfinger can temporarily boost your lockpicking skills, making it easier to pick difficult locks.
