Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura Hints
Pick Locks: J.T. Morgan
1 of 9: To start this quest, you have to talk to Ms. R.L. Morgan in Roseborough.
2 of 9: She'll ask you to help her son J.T. and will tell you to bring him his lockpicks, which she'll give you.
3 of 9: So go to Caladon and to the high security prison (on the northern side of the city, near the palace).
4 of 9: If you go there at night, the guard will fall asleep, allowing you to easily pick the lock on the door. If you're noticed, just kill the guards.
5 of 9: Pick the lock on the trapdoor, and head down.
6 of 9: In the prison, you pretty much just have to pick every lock on everything. Keep heading to the left, and you'll eventually go in a loop.
7 of 9: You'll know you're at the right place when you find a cell with a bunch of bars and no door.
8 of 9: J.T. is inside, almost hidden by the wall in the right corner.
9 of 9: Talk to him, give him his picks, and he'll make you a master.
