Nothing, Lockpicks tend to drop once every few hours or so for me, x3 isn't a huge improvement. Not worth it for me.

Agreed.
Last time they had this weekend I farmed all weekend with over 9 toons and got like two lockpicks. Not wasting the time again.

I'm working on multiple titles this weekend. My wannabe survivor ranger, who hasn't seen play in nearly 2 years, is going for broke whilst levelling various pets to dire outside Boreal, and opening chests and IDing golds while she's at it. Survivor, treasure hunter, wisdom, lucky and unlucky, and more pets in the menagerie to boot. I'm enjoying it so far.

I remember the last 2 times this 3x pick weekend came around, I tried farming various areas with different characters over both events..... after I realized that I actually get MORE picks when event isn't on, this weekend will be all about lucky/unlucky/wisdom/treasure hunter for me, working on last tier in all 4

Strange, I've gotten a ton (8) of lockpicks so far - 3 bosses have dropped one (from zquests), 3 dropped in about 7 kilroy runs (for my survivor alt), and 2 dropped during ~15 raptor runs.
Totally atypical for me. Last few times, I got 1-3 the entire weekend (with over 8 hours /played each weekend)...
FWIW, I'm just doing random sh!t 'til I get bored, then doing something else (only about 4 hours playtime so far, 1 which was spent running chests in Boreal [no loot drops])...
