So, I’ve got this klepto character named Henry in my game who loves to hoard stuff. I’ve already stolen from the apothecary in Rattay for some supplies, but when I try to rob the sword shop, everything disappears as soon as it closes and doesn’t come back until it opens again. I’m thinking about swiping items in broad daylight, then making a run for it to stash the loot with the miller and maybe even get arrested for a short while. By the way, I still can’t pick very hard locks. I’m currently at level 12—what gives? Do I need more training?

I had a midnight heist in Kuttenberg once, but it got chaotic when a housemaid locked the door right as I was trying to escape. I recommend starting around 2 AM when everyone’s asleep and aiming to be out by 4 AM to avoid getting caught. Timing is key!
You should wait until the swordsmiths are asleep! Once your lockpicking skill improves, you can sneak in at night and take whatever you want. A tip I found helpful is to have a drink beforehand; that alcohol buff helps a lot with lockpicking. Just make sure you’re ready to make a quick getaway!
What level do I need to reach to pick very hard locks? I’m getting frustrated!
