Practicing Pick Lock?

Staff Emeritus
Can anyone recommend a place to practice picking locks? I just gained the skill, but all the doors I've found that are locked are above my skill.

From the level map posted here, it looks like the old Befallen (where there was a good door to practice on in EQLive) is now a lvl 65 zone.

Thanks!

Lower level?

I take it back. The door by the Bard's guild, as well as the doors by the clock tower are all above my skill level, which I've trained up to 21. Anyone know where the lower level doors are, or how high I have to train to start using the ones in Newport?

Thanks

I know, I was searching for a door to train up to 23 to actually be able to pick a lock. It kinda sucks to have to put in 16 or so skill points on something that you could train on.
 
I had to manually raise mine to lvl 23 then I started practicing on the only door that was at the lvl. They need more n00b doors to practice pick locking.
 
It appears the skill required for the lock by the bard's guild is now 25.

So, I trained to 25, tried to pick the lock, failed once, succeeded once, failed a handful more times, then....

You jammed the lock!

And subsequent tries:

The lock is jammed.

Is this inevitable? I assume this was done so that raising the skill wasn't so easy (albeit tedious).

Sigh.

Newb Doors Found!

You can get from 0 to 36 on the 4 doors in the basement of the Erudin Palace. I did so last night and never had a problem with waiting for an jam to clear. The door for the quest opened up first time for me at level 36 :D

Hope this helps someone else out!

thanks for all the help last night in guild chat!!! I would not have found that spot or even been able to finish my quest!
