Locked doors

[msdesign]

I didn't know where to post this, because its just a small message to all I-know-the-game-players who think they know more than the others...

Some time ago, when I was doing Korthos quests, I joined a PUG to do the Redemption quest with my rogue. When we got to the part with the crystals behind the locked door, I heard some guy saying something on mic about something the rogue should do, but I couldn't hear because of the noisy jets the other side of the bars. I carried on, went ahead and used the valve to unlock the door. That guy then wrote "you could have picked the door, so we get bonus xp".

I though and said them "ok, I didn't knew that, I'm sorry" (naive me...)

But I kept thinking about it and got back there with another rogue and tried to pick that lock, when it pops up a message Door can't be picked.

So guys, for short:

1. That door can't be picked, don't bother to ask rogues or artis to do that.
2. Picking any door or chest locks DOES NOT add bonus xp. Only detecting hidden doors and disabling traps do so.

Save yourselves from future embaracement, please :D

People who think things like that have never read a forum post.

Redemption - the quest with Lars Hayton ?

The locked door - with the Cannith Crystals and you turn off the valves ?

Well, I've picked the door before on my arti and rogue. I used to think it can't be picked either because you need to turn the valve at the shrine but after seeing someone do it, I found out that actually yes it can be picked.

Unless they changed it after the U13.1 patch.

The other guy was wrong though on picking locks giving extra XP.

Yeah...people telling you to pick doors for xp on korthos island are kind of like people in the advice channel in the marketplace. Just ignore them or squelch them and move on.

That very quest. I tried, just to know if it was possible, but I got that message...
And I tried before the U13. Now I wonder why some can, and others can't... :confused:
