I’m trying to rack up lockpicking for the Golden Pursuit achievement but hitting all the chests in the game feels slow. Are there any better spots, like doors or specific areas that yield more locks to pick quickly?

Hewes Bane has some houses with locked doors that you can exploit too. And if you’re feeling adventurous, try Gnisis on Vvardenfell for locked doors and safeboxes! The Fighters Guild in Shornhelm also has some treasures but you’ll need to keep it stealthy.
If you’re near Ebonheart, there are a couple of locked houses close to the wayshrine. Just teleport in, pick the locks, and teleport out to reset. Super easy to do.
Bal Foyen is the place! The chests there respawn quickly, mainly around the perimeter. Just take a lap and you’ll gather a heap in around 20-30 minutes. Perfect for a quick lockpicking session!
Have you checked out the delve in Clockwork City? It’s a smaller location and offers tons of chests. You just have to keep moving through it for the respawns.
Most cities are great for picking locks! I recommend heading to Wayrest in the northeast. You can find a lot of houses crowded together. Just pick all the locks in one, then travel to a house you don’t own to reset the locks. Super efficient!
That house preview trick is clever, I’ll have to remember that!
Exactly! I cleared out like 30 chests in no time there. Super easy to navigate, and great for beginners.
