Forum:Lockpicking/Bobbypins

I really hate this part of the game. In Oblivion I was able to obtain an item that could be used all the time for this and never broke. Does such an item exist in Fallout?

Not that I know, all I can say is that this isn't Oblivion, there aren't any daedra lords to talk to XD! Plus, that item made the game to easy to lock pick in Oblivion.XxInThRaXeDxX 20:24, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

One trick is to keep restarting the lockpick attempt until you randomly get one that turns. Doing this gives you a good initial start, in my experience its a faster way to go than saving before each lock, and you hardly ever lose a pin. AshRandom (Talk) 04:54, 6 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Just in case you don't know, you don't use WASD together. Pick one key (I use "A").  Gently tap "A" (screwdriver rotates) until you hear a click or see the bobbypin wiggle.  If it wiggles, let go of the "A" key and then move the mouse (the bobbypin) to another position.  I break a bobby pin about 1 in 20 tries, usually because I'm not patient enough.  I'm sure there will be an unbreakable bobby pin mod soon.  Snicker 13:44, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
