In The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO), lockpicking is a mechanic used to open locked doors, chests, and containers without a key. Heres how it works: How to Pick Locks in ESO: Find a Locked Object Look for chests (treasure, master, etc.), doors, or containers with a lock icon. Hold the Interact Key Approach the lock and hold the designated button (e.g., E on PC, X on PlayStation, A on Xbox). Lockpicking Mini-Game A lockpicking interface will appear with tumblers (pins) that must be lifted into place. Steps to Successfully Pick a Lock: Press and Hold Hold the interaction button to lift a tumbler. Release at the Right Moment Each tumbler has a "sweet spot" where it clicks into place. If you hold too long, it will break. Repeat for All Tumblers Most locks have 3-5 tumblers. Successfully set all to open the lock. Tips for Lockpicking: Listen for the Click A subtle sound cue indicates when a tumbler is set correctly. Watch for Vibration (Controllers) Controllers vibrate when a tumbler is in the correct position. Practice on Simple Locks Lower-level locks (Apprentice, Journeyman) are easier and help you learn the timing. Use Lockpicks If you fail, youll lose a lockpick (found in the world or bought from vendors). Keep a stockpile. Lock Difficulty Levels: Locks come in five difficulty tiers (from easiest to hardest): Apprentice (White) Very easy, few tumblers. Journeyman (Green) Slightly harder. Expert (Blue) Moderate challenge. Master (Purple) Difficult, requires precision. Legendary (Gold) Very hard, found in high-level content. Skills & Perks for Lockpicking: Legerdemain Skill Line (Underworld skill tree) Improves lockpicking speed and reduces broken picks. - Kickback (Passive) Reduces damage taken from failed attempts. - Locksmith (Passive) Decreases chance of breaking lockpicks. Where to Find Lockpicks: Loot from containers, enemies, and barrels. Buy from Fence vendors (Outlaw Refuges) for gold. Receive as rewards for Thieves Guild quests.

The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
