Making use of the lockpicking mechanics in Baldur’s Gate 3 can allow you to get into pretty much every location or open any chest.
Staying true to the classic RPG approach of “anything goes,” Baldur’s Gate 3 allows players to access inaccessible areas through various methods. For example, if you come across a locked door or chest, you can open it using the lockpicking option.
Unfortunately, lockpicking in Baldur’s Gate 3 is not that simple. It involves using a lockpicking tool and passing a luck-based dexterity dice roll. Even after getting all the required stuff, success is still not guaranteed using the Lockpicking method.How to Lockpick in Baldur’s Gate 3
In Baldur’s Gate 3, opening a locked door or chest requires a key. You find these keys by exploring the vicinity of the locked item. Hunting for the key can sometimes be frustrating, especially when you cannot find it, even after many tries.
Luckily, the game also provides an alternate method to open these locks. This involves using an in-game item known as the Thieves’ Tool. It is a consumable item that you lose with a failed attempt.
This tool allows the player to bypass the critical requirement and unlock the door or chest by performing a Dexterity skill check known as Sleight of Hand.
