How to unlock the Cat burglar achievement in GreedFall - Definitive Guide

Sadly I can confirm that you can’t cheese this by saving, lockpicking, and loading the same chest 20 times. Your best bet is to get lockpicking level 3 as early as possible because there are quite a few missions that will either require you finding a key or just have Lockpicking 2, or 3 to open a chest or door, and there aren’t very many non mission lockpicking chests/doors througout the game

Can I get this in multiple playthroughs or does it have to be 20 in one?

I just want to say, this comment is completely false "there aren’t very many non mission lockpicking chests/doors througout the game".

I got this achievement with lockpicking level 2 only right after I reached New Serene and explored a little bit. I hadn't even started a single quest on the main island of the game yet.

Agree with the above comment, there seem to be a lot of optional chests/doors around for lockpicking; got this not very far into the second location.

Also, you can upgrade your gear to give you a lockpicking level so that you don't have to spend a talent point on lockpicking if you don't want to.

I don't think you can get this with multiple plays ... seems to have to be on a single game. The good news is that, in Serene (the starting city), there are nearly a dozen Level 1 locks, both chests and doors/jail cells. If you take Kurt's chest armor from him, it comes with a Level 1 lockpick ability on it ... giving you a chance to wipe out half the requirements before the game really starts.

I will note that quite a few of the locks are in Naut-controlled areas: you'll need to have a second piece of sailor armor so you can swap between them if you don't want to lose reputation with the Nauts. Some of the swapping of gear will need to be done quickly so you can change to the lockpick armor, open the lock, and get back into sailor gear before someone notices.

This is a work in progress

In order to use this guide, the first two locations are listed first, then before embarking on a quest, have a look down to see if it is signposted so you know where to look. The other two major settlements also have their own section. New Serene itslef has two sections as I'm not sure if these spawn after a certain point as they only appeared in my game world quite late on, I'm not sure, however, if this is due to a glitch or not.


At the character building screen, you must put ypur first point into lockpick to get the most out of this guide. If you then put the nect point into craftsmanship upon leveling up, you can create a lockpicking upgrade for your chest piece which will give you access to level 2 locks at the earliest point possible.

If anyone's like me and didn't unlock all the chests in the tutorial area (Serene), you can use these fantastic interactive maps I came across to find locked chests in some of the areas.

This achievement can prove to be a pain if you don't prepare to unlock it from the start of the game. You will find a decent amount of locked containers and doors but many require level 2 or 3 in Lockpicking to unlock. You should invest in the Lockpicking talent whenever you get a point to do so and get it to level 3 as soon as possible so that you can comfortably unlock every lock you come across. There are more than 20 in the game, but they are quite rare and some can be left behind in areas you can't return to, should you miss them or not have the appropriate talent level at the time you find them.

I regretted that I started playing as a Warrior, since in the Prologue there are many 1st level chests that can be opened if the “hacking” skill is unlocked. Then you can really throw off all the skill points and choose another character. But there is no way to return to the Prologue (25% of the game is completed).

In the Prologue you can pick up the jacket from Kurt, it gives +1 to hacking

There are not many chests in the game, so you need to be puzzled by this right away, and apparently, opening doors with master keys counts.

There is no need to mislead the players in the game, there are tons of different chests and doors, you don’t need to download the opening skill, the jacket and the reward for the companion’s quest (I don’t remember which one) make it possible to open much more than 20
