Scarlet Lockboxes

[Sliptree]

This is something I just noticed today when in a Scarlet Monastery run with my low-level rogue. Scarlet Fanatics, the monks training in front of the cathedral doors right before Brother Kristoff, have the same pickpocket loot no matter what difficulty the instance is. I nabbed several Vine-Cracked Junkboxes and two Hot and Misty Steamy Romance Novels.

Not entirely sure if this is considered an exploit, but I do know that Level 30-something mobs are not intended to have grey pickpocket items worth several gold.

Really awesome find. I'm convinced this was an oversight on blizz's end. +rep on bringing it here.

This is just silly, nice find!

i dont see much of use... maybe for alt on another server to get some extra gold but there are another more effective methods... anyway +rep for trying

Is this only those monks, or are the other mobs in the instance the same? Because if thats the case you could probably bot farm these things quite undetected.

people have been doing this for months now, is like 1kph in just gold + the tons of gems.

Hi and thank for this exploit, i will take a look,

there is a way to reset them after pickpocketing ? I would be boring to be block after only 5 reset

I think it just got fixed

[Archrix]

That'd be an awfully fast fix...
