Move the pin all the way to one and other side and tap a bit with he screwdriver to feel how much resistance there is. Depending on how much resistence there is, you should guess where the sweet spot it. In this example it is at 2 o’clock. I use this method (average and easy locks) and barely ever break a pin.

you act like these things are so hard to kill, i took one down with a half broken hunting rifle, skills…
try to open it if u dont sucess press back and try again
I usually guess on a spot and move it extremely slowly, and progress from there.
They’re usually in first aid kits.
After awhile I noticed that the sweet spots are in the same place on every level of lock except Very Hard…
The only variables are if it’s to the left or right.
And the positions for levels of locks change depending on your level…if you don’t change Lockpicking skill, you’ll notice it…
i save and force lock if i dont have any pins
You find them all over the place in lockers, on people, in metal boxes, etc.
In other words, you have to scrounge-around looking for them. They aren’t in just one location. Look everywhere you can and they will turn up eventually.
can some one tell me where to get the bobby pins to pick the lock i cant find em anywhere
nice! i allways saved the game before unlocking something & used force lock.Now its much easier!
that would be epic
obviously for average and easy locks you can just guess…
Love it
i cant do so when i tap the force lock at once ive got lock broken how i can make it work
i tend to open locks on the first try (im always like wtf? o.o) and ive rarely gone over 1 broken pin
u own matey!!
Save, force lock, load… until you open it
Go into the metros. Ghouls will carry loads of em’.
Oh thats why I was having that problem too, and it was starting to get annoying. But what if you want to pick a 100 lock where you have to travel a long distance to get there and can’t find anywere to sleep?
In Fallout 3
I wonder if there is a code for many forks, and I find that I need to open some things …
Thanks for your help. Answer
I don’t find many bobby pins anymore, I only have 6 left.
Feral Ghouls seem to have bobby pins on them quite alot, head into one of the metros that has them in and just tear them apart
i wasted all the bobby pins amata gave me, breaking into the market at rivet city and stealing guns ^.^
but now im out D=
if anyone finds a vender that sells any PLEASE tell me!
I think I see what your trying to say in the description, but in fewer words:Rotate the bobbypin to a 90 degree angle on each side to find out which way it turns, then guess and check for the rest of it.
You randomly find them in loot, and you can also find them in shopkeepers inventories too.The ones that Amata gives you at the start of the game should probably be enough to easily get through the main quest line though
how do you get more lock picks, or bobby pins?
