Locks are OP, only one class can beat them.

Personally I think that the only class that can consistently beat a lock is a Rouge. Even then, the rouge has to have quite a bit of skill... I've heard it can take weeks of working on technique starting on n00b locks that are easy to beat, but help you to learn. It must suck.
I've also heard that if you're an engineer it helps, cause you can blast them with your blasting charges, but that's annoying to skill up in and isn't very helpful against high-level locks. Lower-level ones may be caught off guard by the bombs though and fly every which way.
The final strategy tends to not work in high-level locks either, as they employ complex strategies to not be so easily cracked, but you can use a Skeleton key if you have your Blacksmithing up.

Anyone else think we need to make some other way to open doors and chests? If you made it a Mage it'd be easy to get past... even a Spriest would be better!
