I'm wondering how much trap/lock skill is really needed.

I know that there are other ways to deal with locks and traps, but would like to hear from others as to how much they have and what was really needed.

I spend a moderate amount of time training on each chest (inspect/inspect/inspect/....).

My bard has a Trap/lock skill of 85 now. I've done the various wilderness areas and the retro-dungeons. One of them had a 10 tumbler lock that she managed to pick (after several trys).

Its been a long time since I saw a chest that I could not have opened easily.

Am I going to run into some more difficult locks/chests as I finish the Umpani/T'Rang quests? Have not been to the sea caves nor Assension Peak yet -- but that is probably about all I have not done.

What is the lowest Trap/lock skill that people have finished with? (without needing much Knock-Knock spell or force or bash/grin & bear it).
