Lockpics and Lucky Title - Guild Wars Forums

I'm sorry if this is already out there somewhere, but I didn't see it in the first two pages of searching.

I understand you get 250 points toward your lucky title if you retain a pic when you use it. Does this count on low end chests as well as high end chests? I tried to check this out but was having a hard time finding Ascalon chests in NM, I wanted these in particular since with my Luck being R3, I figured my retention would be very high.

People that want to work on their lucky title CR in NM b/c of the higher retaining rate. Yes you get 250 if you retain in NM. Doesn't matter where you are, if you retain the lockpick you get 250 lucky.

yes it increases lucky if you retain on any chest, no matter if it is high end or "low end." Of course you won't get treasure hunter for low end, but your retention rate will be high and you can farm lucky points

i recommended secret lair of the snowman in nm for chest farming, treasure hunter + good retention rate

What level are those chests in the lair? 50 gold key chests have a base retention rate of 65% for a lvl 20 character with 0/0 (luck/treasure hunter). Where 1.25k chests have a 20% retention rate with 0/0. Where do the above mentioned chests fall in that list?

Chest run outside Ascalon/Shing Jea/Kamadan and you will retain a pick like 10-15 times. I did it for along time but it is very boring. To finish my maxing lucky I have just been opening chests in HM while I vanquish and afking 9 rings while i sleep. When boardwalk is open.
