But yes, some lockers are impossible to open. There have been a couple threads about this, in earlier ones Devs said it was a bug (because of the effort during this session that's gone into discouraging alting through the necessity of 300SP skills), but here, Wipe says it isn't.

Anyway, if I don't get it the first time I typically don't try it again. Don't do what that dude did, some are just lost causes.

I always try at least 3 times. I figure it's easy to go 6 minutes without finding a locker so you might as well try a couple of times. Many many many times I've failed on my first but succeeded on second or third.

6 people with skill 300% tried one and open the chest totzhe to 5 times. Get 30 attempts. And it does not open. The error in the game when I fix it?
Ymeogamaouas:
Just move on and find another box.
Developer said some boxes are meant to be unlockable even with 300% and lockpicks.
Whether this means you need to have perks or find other ways to open them (crowbar?, dynamite?) is unclear so for now your best bet after trying 3-5 times is to stop wasting time and leave to try and find other boxes.
If you want a "RP" perspective the lock is rusted and jammed. Even the best locksmith couldnt open it.
Wallace:
At the same time best locksmith could perceive that the lock is impossible to open...
Right! It'd be good when glancing at the lock would give you it's difficulty level: piece of cake, easy, regular, problematic, hard, tough call, insane, impossible!

No, a locksmith couldn't open a 200 year old rusty lock that is jammed shut.
But a 12 year old with a crowbar could. And trust me, I got a lot of crowbars in my pickers tent. It would be nice if there was another use for it other than beating rats in the face.
