Gate lockpicking?
So I just logged on today to see my first major character dead. Since I logged out inside a house inside a palisade I assumed I'd see a gaping hole in my defenses. But instead I saw my gate open. Not destroyed, just open. Now since my character had the only key, how is this possible? Does using a battering ram on a door open it instead of break it? If that's true is it easier to knock in a door instead of knocking down a wall?

Have you tried using the key on it? If it closes, it wasn't rammed. If it doesn't, it was rammed or paly bashed.

Well I just spawned a new character to do that, but when I reincarnated I didn't appear by my old place. So, it might take a while to find that out. Guess it was probably bashed in then.

So is it easier to knock open a gate instead of a wall? Or is it less time consuming? Because I may make a double gate if its worth the trouble.

Someone make a key mold and not throw it into the river? Someone leave a key laying where it could get stolen? Someone leave the gate open long enough for someone to get inside?

Re: Gate lockpicking?
Well, I don't know what to tell you, then. If you log in often enough to check for repairs on the wall, you'd have seen someone building a ram there. They take 24 real life hours to dry. The only other thing I can think of is someone used a hearth secret to spawn there and then steal the key.KinoftheFlames wrote:no no and noMagicManICT wrote:

You should have spawned at your ancestor's hearth fire if you inherited. Painhertz is right in that it could have been palibashed. There's a few people that have pumped strength up high enough.

Is there a cave leading into your base?

Re: Gate lockpicking?
Okay I just noticed the wall broke in at the far end of my compound. Someone must have taken the key off my body and left through the door.
I didn't see a battering ram there within the last 24 hours and its not there now... they can be moved, right?
And since they killed me while I was offline they had summoned me at my hearth fire to kill me there. But when I reincarnated I spawned on some island no where near my base. Does that mean they destroyed my hearth fire?
