If no rogue are around, a blacksmith with the Silver Skeleton Key can open it for you.

Commentaire de entropicdragon

Alternatively, an engineer can use Small Seaforium Charge to open it.

no vendor trash and very few whites :D on the other hand low blue rate and mostly greens

Commentaire de Thottbot

how on earth do i get it open? i asked a lvl 45 rogue and he said it wouldn't let him unlock it even though he had enough skill

Commentaire de Thottbot

I believe what it "disenchants" into is what you get when you unlock/open it...

Would be nice to see the lockpick skill required to unlock these (and other "locked" items).

Commentaire de Thottbot

There is definitely something weird with this item. I tried to help a random stranger by picking this today (in a no-trade window), and I did not get any feedback at all. Usually if I try a box and my skill is too low, it gives a message. This just seemed to do nothing at all.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Lockpicking is not required - you can open these with silver skullkeys made by blacksmiths.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I've opened plenty of these at level 80 lockpicking. I don't know exactly what level is needed though.

Most of us rogues will be at least level 75 lockpicking, because that is needed to complete one of the rogue quests. When I reached 75, I stopped "practicing", and I would assume that is common among many rogues.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Every thing I've picked has had atleast a bit of cash in it, I don't think I've ever gotten one that's empty.

Here's how you pick it for someone:

Open the trade window with them.
Have them place it in "Will not be traded"
Use the lockpick skill on it
Have them place any rewards (some people charge) on there "Will be traded" area
Click trader
Wait for them to click trade

This seems fairly easy to open, since I did it with about 98 lockpicking.

Does anyone know if you get XP from picking chests in this way? I never seem to level up lockpicking unless I pick something myself.

Commentaire de Thottbot

As of the last patch, we now DO get skill points from the "Do Not Trade" slot.

Thanks, Blizzard.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Can I mail this from one character to another on the same server? My high level warrior could collect these for my rogue to level up on if I can.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Ok, I haven't been able to find a decent list so far on the net about lockpicking skill required for different lockboxes (would be good to have on thott - hint hint to the moderator or wtvr ;). From my exp tho, bronze are very low lvl, Iron is around 120, Strong Iron 145ish, Steel 180, Reinforced Steel I think is around 200, these figures are not exact, just estimates. My skill is now at 240 (max for lvl 48) and i dont often find things i cant open. Hope this helps. =)

Commentaire de Thottbot

Oh, and to clear up.. if u want a rogue to open one for you, put it in the "Will not be traded" slot, DO NOT give it to them :P

And yes, if the box is high enough lvl to be yellow or orange to the rogue on lockpicking skill, then it will lvl their skill up too, regardless of whether it's theirs or not.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Pickable (orange) at 25 skill, yellow at 50 skill, green at 75 skill (so it's probably grey at 100 skill; Had one on me when I was doing Buccaneer's Strongboxes for the quest.)

Commentaire de Thottbot

Thottbot is buged, on every item it says "Disenchant into".

Commentaire de Thottbot

I got one out of a chest and when I unlocked it (I'm a blacksmith and had some silver keys on me I'd made a while back) the box was....empty! How can that happen? Everyone I've ever spoke to about it said there's always at least one item in them...or some cash or something lol

Commentaire de Thottbot

Id just like 2 note that i found an Ivycloth Tunic of the Owl in mine, and it wasnt on the 'disenchant' list.

Commentaire de Thottbot

just opened one and there was nothing inside...

Commentaire de Thottbot

1. Get a silver skeleton key. It will be in your keyring, which can be viewed by clicking the little key thing to the left of your last bag slot.

2. Right click on the key. Should have a glowing finger.

3. Click on the box - key will disappear (used). Contents will be open. Click on them. Box will disappear as well. Done.

Commentaire de Thottbot

i opened mine a lvl 64 rogue did the trick didn't charge me gave me amber hoop of nature resistance

Commentaire de Thottbot

I have had the same problem.. I was given a heavy bronze lock box. I picked the lock myself, and there is nothing inside.

Commentaire de Thottbot

For a rogue to open it go to the spell book, click picked lock icon, then point to the locked box. done. I got a lvl 25 dagger

Commentaire de Thottbot

Hi, ppl. The key "Silver Skeleton Key" is possible to build by a blacksmith (min LV 100). Whit this key you can open: right click on the key, so after, left click on the box. Well sometimes the key is more expensive that the item inside the box...

Commentaire de Thottbot

First, if you dont have lockpicking as a skill/enchant?/special key? etc.: Go to Stormwind bank especially on fri/sat nights. There are always Rogues around the bank offering to pick boxes and most for free. Really, we shouldnt charge because it gives us XP. There are only certain places Rogues can really go to "skill up" on lockpicking and sometimes people/me incl dont fee like traveling all the way to Zoram Strand/etc. to skill up. Why not do it in Stormwind for your server friends? People usually give a donation to me or do enchants for me in trade etc. that makes it really cool. Second, the type of box determines how easy it will be to pick (iron/battered/water logged etc.) If you join a guild, and you have a Rogue, just ask if they can pick it at their lvl. Rogues have basically a couple of stages of lockpicking starting at 100 when we earn our "theives tools". There are a lot of different boxes/chests out there so I just know from experience which ones (i think) will be easy. Also, sometimes, the box will require me to try 3 times before I can succesfully pick it. So, if your Rogue friend only tries once, tell them to keep trying. Never pass by a chance to get a chest/box or to loot through pickpocket! You will find sometimes trash in there but the occasional weapon/item with great stats will definately make up for it. If you are a Rogue and want to find more about where to skill up, go to the guild pages on WOW. There is a site called "way of the rogue" where the creator gives like 8 specific places to pick boxes and other really good tips about the Rogue character. (FYI, i'm only lvl 26 NE Rogue with lockpicking of 103 but loving it! Awesome fun character to play.)

Commentaire de Thottbot

I just opened opened one at 163 lockpicking and it was gray. Just go up to any rogue lvl25 or higher, ofer him a couple silver and he can open it easily.

Commentaire de Thottbot

These can be opened with a small seaforium charge.

Commentaire de Thottbot

what level does rogue get to start unlocking?

Commentaire de Thottbot

is there a place where you get these alot while fishing? or is the only primary place they drop gnomer?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Someone ever happend to find an empty one?
Got one from a blugill raider in the Wtlands and found a friendly rogue in Stormwind City who opend it for me.
Before you ask, yes I put it in the not trade field. Every time I right click it it says:"There was no loot to get." But the lockbox still stays in my inventory.
?

Update
Contacted GM, they send me twice! the answer to delete the WTF folder. Tis didn't worked.
They then send me another Lockbox by mail.
As I tried to open this one, having it unlocked by a rogue of course, I got the error message that I don't have the right to loot this object and lockbox was gone!
GM and support investigated this issue and at the end of the day they decided to send me the item a Dwarven Magestaff instead directly.

Commentaire de Thottbot

i was checking the possiable drops an it didnt say Trolls Bane Leggings an i got 1 in arathi n' picked it open an i got a pair ne 1 else?

Commentaire de Thottbot

I have one of these boxes and the first time I asked someone to open it they couldn't - lower lvl rogue - I assumed they didn't have the right skill level. Today a lvl 70 player tried to open it for me and he couldn't. He said he had never run into this before. (And we did use the right trade window, etc.) -- smells like a bug to me

Commentaire de Thottbot

I tried opening a lockbox with a silver skeleton key. Unfortunately, those "keys" only work for blacksmiths with a skill of 100! After going to all that trouble, I got the key, but had to send it back! (Maybe I should have read the fine print!)

Commentaire de Thottbot

25 - 100 Required

Commentaire de Thottbot

Is it possible to get nothing from these?

Commentaire de Thottbot

When having another player pick a lock for you how much should you tip them?

Commentaire de Thottbot

you get crud from these dumb boxes yea there really made of bronze more like cardboard

Commentaire de Thottbot

I opened my bronze boxes and a friends strong iron and got two blues and she got zip lol =)

Commentaire de Thottbot

Just got my first one today. Needs 25 lockpick to open. Wonder what I'll get

Commentaire de Thottbot

So you can open these with a key if you arent a rogue?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I got one of these the other day and when I unlocked it (I'm a blacksmith and had some silver keys on me I'd made a while back at the time) the box was....EMPTY!

How can that happen? Everyone I've ever spoke to about it said there's always at least one item in them...or some cash or something lol

Also of note, after opening it and seeing nothing there, the box is still in my inventory....shouldn't it have disappeared after opening and taking whatever was out of it, or in this case, as there was nothing inside it to take, shouldn't it still disappear?

Is this normal or is it something I should try to bug support about? lol

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I've had one of these for about a week until I found a rouge nice enough to pick it for me. When I opened it, there was nothing inside. :(

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I opened it with 80 in lockpicking, the max skill you get at 16 when you get the lockpicking ability. It was already green when I came back from the Redridge lockpicking training grounds.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Is there a way to open this? or is it just vendor junk?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

get a rogue to open it, usually has a good item in it

Commentaire de Allakhazam

How do you get the Blacksmith to open the box? I tried this in Undercity and couldn't find anyway to ask them.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Got a Plans: Mighty Iron Hammer from one of these tonite. Nice since im doing Blacksmithing i can put it to use

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Was doing the conclusion to sacred flame when it droped for my party member .Opened it and it had corruption and a nice green .I love when people i adventure with get good drops

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I got two of these off named Ogres in Duskwood, in the same run through with my level 29 warrior. Opened them with silver skeleton keys that I made, and found two decent greens in one, and one in the other.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

found this on a Highperch Consort.
Inside, I found Sage's Cloak of the Whale.

The highest key that a bsmith can make is arcanite.

Commentaire de frakbt

Just got my 1st empty one: I open it, nothing's there, but the loot window stays open, and the lockbox doesn't disappear from my bags. Changing my Auto Loot setting has no effect.

My feeble memory seems to recall a box that had something in it that could not be seen by every toon. Possibly it was visible only to a specific class or profession? Or maybe someone on a specific quest? Anyone recall something like that?

Commentaire de Ulrikekekeka

Lockboxes and chests can be opened by rogues using the Crochetage skill learned at level 16. Your max level lockpicking skill is determined by the level of your character. The basic formula is 'char level x 5'. So, a level 16 rogue will have a max lockpicking level of 80, a 17 rogue would be 85 and so on up to a (currently) maximum of 300.

Once you have learned the lockpicking skill, you will also need a set of Outils de voleur. You do not need to buy these, you should receive them during the 'lockpicking' quest.
Once the quest is completed, you can place the Crochetage onto your toolbar from inside your spellbook. You then click this button and then click the lockbox/chest you wish to open.
As with most levelling professions, the items you want to unlock will be colour coded with the relevant chance of gaining a level point:- The word 'locked' will be red, orange, yellow, green or grey.

Red = Skill level too low
Orange = 100% chance of gaining a skill point
Yellow = Good chance of gaining a skill point
Green = A slight chance of gaining a skill point
Grey = No chance of gaining a skill point

Lockboxes can also be opened by using a skeleton key created by blacksmiths. These are NOT to be confused with the Clé squelette which is used to open the entrance to the Scholomance instance.

The table below shows the minimum lockpicking skill level required to open each type of lockbox and which blacksmith skeleton key will open it (if possible).

Type of Lock/junk box	Lockpicking skill required	Blacksmithing key required
Coffret orné en bronze Coffret endommagé	1	Passe-partout en argent
Coffret lourd en bronze	25	Passe-partout en argent
Coffret en fer Coffre solide verrouillé Coffret usé	70	Passe-partout en or
