Re: lockbreaking
In the bazillion times I've seen complaints about it on the forum it all was bad luck, so, yeah, count on it that it's bad rng

Re: lockbreaking
Well Rmak, that's how it feels when you end up in the tail of a random variable distribution.
It is the same as if you complained that you won in a lottery while all of your friends didn't.

I should just be able to pour a chemical agent on this variable distribution and make it explode.
But yes, I record this journey of lock breaking.

Re: lockbreaking
Actually it sounds like a good idea! We have explosive powder, why not be able to use it to just simply blow the lock up?

Re: lockbreaking
16 is not that bad. Lockbreaking attempts only take one day each. There are worse streaks of bad luck ...
I think ...

Re: lockbreaking
I had a character work on breaking 1 lock for literal Cantrian years. I lost count of the days.

I think the answer to that is obvious
And Rmak, it seems your character just has terrible luck. Perhaps have them take a break from it and reassess whether the lock really needs to be broken?
