I have to confess that during my time as a blacksmith, I never even seriously considered making one of these. Why blow an arcanite bar on something like this? Is there a use that I'm not seeing?

Obviously there are doors that require some serious lock opening ability, but why not just bring a skilled rogue? Is there any serious use for these keys?

Some people are just lazy. Same thing applies in the real world, why would you spend money on fastfood when you can do a bit of extra work and get more for your money.

Opens the following:
o Reinforced Steel Lockbox
o Mithril Lockbox
o Thorium Lockbox
o Searing Gorge Gate
o Heavy Junkbox

No blacksmith key will open the following:
o BRD Door
o Scholomance Door
o Eternium Lockbox

An Arcanite Key will open an Eternium lockbox.

I just tested it to see if it was possible and it most certainly certainly is.

Is it worth it? In most cases no it is notm as the cost of the Arcanite Keu outweighs the benefits.

It is far easier to ask a kind rogue to open a lockbox for you then to waste money on creating an arcanite key.

Best part about this key is while it may cost a fair coin to make, it can open most Chests, so in an instance with no rogue, after the group is done, you go back through and take all the locked chests.

Works on chests in ramparts/BF so far tested (early BC instances). 60g chests are ftw.

Комментарий от 46899

so you can spend the gold to make 2 keys. my server averages 7-8g a bar. i think it would be worth it or you can spend the time trying to find that experianced rogue that could very well take you over an hour.

You can't open reinforced steel lockbox with a truesilver key. I tried to last night.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I�m a level 60 rogue I unpick all boxes for free, is there a door in the game like the one in Dm that can be opened with this key � and you don�t have a rogue with you?

-Still as an alchemist it�s completely absurd to make a key out of an archnite bar.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Worst use of arcanite ever.

As previous posters have noted, the only reason to ever make these is for those rare situations when your group doesn't have a rogue. Even then, chances are whatever is in the chest won't make your money back.

Комментарий от Thottbot

To the person who said they skipped thorium, you have missed that fact that all the keys are made from the RARE version of the metals usually mined eg.

Silver is rare tin spawn - Silver key
Gold is rare Iron - Gold key
Truesilver is rare Mithril - Truesilver key
Arcanite is rare (sort of, it's make from) Thorium - Arcanite key

I have tons of arcanite in my bank. (hovering around 200 bars atm) I have used ~20 bars or so (because I can with all the spare arcanite laying around) to make these keys. I've did numerious UBRS runs w/o rogues and have come across locked chests. The individuals in the raid weren't happy when I said that since I'm unlocking with my key, I get the loot. I've recieved multiple rares and an epic doing this. Call me a ninja?...for the price of the keys, I think it was only fair...

Комментарий от Thottbot

Is this key able to open the Viewing Room Door in Scholomance?
Just curious, imo, is harder to get an Arcane Crystal and transmuting it than getting to Rattlegore.

Комментарий от Thottbot

any idea if these things or anything can open the locked boxes in AQ20 besides the key that drops?

Комментарий от Thottbot

where do you learn how to make this?

Комментарий от Thottbot

ok 3 points to cover
1 the price of arcanite is quite bad on most servers (20g-35g)but the crystals arent to bad (9g-14g on my sever) so +1-2g for the tranmute that max 16g and get 2 keys from 1 bar so 8g max
2 for leveling blacksmithing its not to bad but as alread pointed out there are cheaper ways of doing it
3 only really worth useing these in UBRS/Strat/or the new BC instances but avarage lock box is only worth about 5g-10g (more in BC)with the chance of rare loot so its a choice do i want to risk 3-4g per box for a chance of rare loot

and this is learned in booty bay

I want to know if these will open locked chests in Outland instances. I have several stacks of arcanite just sitting around and am thinking of making some of these.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Making arcanite keys may seem like wasting arcanite, but if you get thorium for free (mining) and arcane crystals for free (mining) and can have a guildie transmute that into arcanite for free, you can use it however you want not worrying about cost. Either way, I was curious and wanted to see if the arcanite keys works in Outland and they do, or at least in Hellfire Ramparts on the locked Fel Iron chest (speaking from experience).

Комментарий от Thottbot

there are lots of posts.. but the one question I have is not posted.. where do we learn to make these keys?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

How many keys are made w/one arc bar? I've only made truesilver skeleton keys, and they make 2 keys w/one set of mats. If this made 2 or 3 keys per bar, it wouldn't be that big a loss of money per barr, cosidering the key is worth 10g.

Anyone know?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

How many keys are made with one set of mats?

I know that the mats for the truesilver key make 2, and if this made 2 or 3, it's not that much of a waste considering the gold value of the item (especially if it made 3).

Anyone know?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I've found very few things this key can't open, its the equivalent of a warrior having 300 lockpicking, and as pointed out already, its nice to have this with you at all times. Unless you have a portable rogue with you, these keys come in handy alot

Комментарий от Allakhazam

What about the Greater Scarab Coffers in AQ40? Can you open these with the key?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

true a rogue will love to lvl without tipping :D
but i'm BS / miner and i pull thorium and arc crytals outta the ground for free when i'm just grinding, guildie has alc formula so the keys are free. best to sell bars really, however i've noticed alot of rogues just lie about lockpicking skills, have seen a few after boss is dead in a dungen and ppl start hearth'n out the rogue waits til you all leave then runs back to the box lol. i caught one red handed in shethekk halls lol

so i guess i'll try arc keys on one of them boxes, i expect they're still to low but like i said free keys for me

Комментарий от Allakhazam

anyone have tested does it open DIm tribute door?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Umm, how quickly you forget about Bound chests... If your not a rogue and soloing something, you cant open the really hard chests, which usually have something worth while in it, without a key. So being a 60 paladin, and 300 blacksmithing, I understand the brilliance of these keys, but you can usually get a friend alchemist to transmute for free or cheap if you as a miner get the crystals while mining rich thorium anyway. o_O

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Yes, let's spend 40g or more to make a key to open a lockbox when you can tip a rogue like 1g and they'd gladly open it. Instance doors all have quests you can usually do to get the key for free ('cept that damn scholomance key).

Комментарий от Allakhazam

up to what kind of lockboxes can these keys open?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Keys are completely pointless, if you can use them, then you can make them...however it might provide an easy way to level up blacksmithing if it's orange at 275, if you consider getting arcanite bars easy.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Who sells the plans to make this?
