How to make Lockpicking Tools in Palworld

Lockpicking Tools are unlocked using Ancient Technology Points, and can be unlocked at the following levels:

VersionUnlock level Technology Points
Lockpicking Tools v1161
Lockpicking Tools v2282
Lockpicking Tools v3513

You must unlock the Locꦡkpicking Tools in order, starting with the first and then moving on sequentially. It’s definitely worth unlocking all of them, because eventually you will be able to simply craft th🦩e v3 version, without any need for the previous two versions at all.  All three versions of Lockpicking Tools can be crafted at a High Quality Workbench.

Lockpicking Tools v1, unlocked🧔 at level 16, will unlock chests which would usually require a Copper Key. They requir💞e the following resources to make:

  • 10 Ingots
    • Made in any furnace using Ore
  • 10 Paldium Fragments
    • Obtained from mining Paldium rocks, or by putting Stone into a crusher
  • 5 Nails
    • Made at any workbench using Ingots

ꩲLockpicking Tools v2 will unlock chests which usually require a Copper or Si🔥lver key to unlock. The recipe for Lockpicking Tools v2 simply doubles the resources of the previous version:

  • 20 Ingots
  • 20 Paldium Fragments
  • 10 Nails

Finally, Lockpicking Tools v3 will allow you to unlock any chest, reg💜ardless of whether a Copper, Silver, or Gold key would usually be required. As such, the resources required to craft them are slig🌱htly harder to get:

  • 30 Pal Metal Ingots
    • Made in an Electric Furnace by combining Ore and Paldium Fragments
  • 30 Paldium Fragments
  • 20 Nails

All you need to do to use any of the Lockpicking Tools is approach a locked chest and press the interact button. A Lockpicking 🐻Tool will be used in pl🐭ace of whichever key you would have needed.
