Wetlands lockers provide skill until 160, not 150 as the guide says.

Also just wanted to confirm that the Westfall chest atop the tower can be picked outside of any quest. Just need to go there and use your lockpicking ability there.

Hello!

So like 2-3 month ago i was leveling my rogue lockpicking at Searing Gorge, Slag Pit and stoped at 260 skill points,today I went back to level more,but the respown timer is huge,2-3 month ago it was like 10 sec,now i don't even know it must be more then 20 min..
Did i missed some server change for respown timers on them or it a bug?

Hey, I can confirm this. I have 300 lockpick, but SG boxes was a really really god place to farm Major healing pots before raids, i could make like 30 in 15-20 min easily. I think this was the reason they got nerfed. Every time i went to a raid, i went down there 15 min before invite, and i was usually not alone 3-4 other rogues would be doing the exact same thing.

I think this change was made with the update on 10th of august, or hotfixed between 13th-16th.

Zoram Strand in Ashenvale has 5-6 boxes. Nice area with L18-21 humanoids.
Box there gave me skill up at 125 and they are still green.

I went at Sledge Fen a few weeks after I finished the poison quest, but you can no longer interact with the chest at the top of the tower anymore.

EDIT: I've found this tip very useful from: https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=19124
you first have to click the lockpick skill, then mouseover the chest

Re-spawn timer is 5 sec.
I've spent 20 minutes to find one chest in stonetalon before I've found this. Do this chest until its gray, then do it more. Make sweet tender love to it and tell her shes the one!
There is no curse on you from opening the chest, but there is some camping.

I just tried it, and was able to go to 90. After, the coffers are still green, but i can't gain any point. I tried 10 more minutes, and gave up (maybe it's pure unluck).

Edit stupid : of course, i couldn't go above : that was my level limitation ^^

Do I have to be lvl 35 to get past 160? The lock in Westfall is still green and LP'd at least 20 times and no skill went to trainer to try and "learn" past 160 and no luck. Should i just go to Desolace island?
