Lockpicks[edit]

For more information, see the main Lockpicking article.

Lockpicks are used to pick locks on chests and doors. They are found in containers everywhere and can stack up to 200. They are also sold by merchants for nine gold. Lockpicks can be used many times if you're careful enough when picking locks and avoid breaking them. Pressing a tumbler for too long increases the chances of breakage, and the difficulty of the lock also has an effect. If you force a lock, you will always break a pick.

Soul Gems[edit]

Soul Gems are used to recharge weapon enchantments or resurrect yourself or other players who have fallen in combat. Normally, these are found as Soul Gem (Empty) and can be filled by using the Soul Trap spell or the Soul Lock passive ability. Once filled, they can be used for recharging and resurrecting.
