Locked containers--SPOILERS
 

I *may* get around to trying a Rogue PC, but until then I have a question. There are several chests in the Prologue that require, I guess, the Stealing skill. Daveth is worthless as a lockpicker, and you can't level him anyway. There are even a couple of chests that say "key required",,,however I never found said keys. So my ? is, Is the loot being missed any good?? Or is it the usual array of minor heal potions, acid flasks, and pennies?

There is the one chest in Ostagar that requires a key. I suggest that you talk to a very hungry man, he may have a lead for you regarding a key. Unlocking the chests require the mechanical devices skill, unless, of course, it says key required.
