How to carry more Lockpicks and Rewire Kits in Redfall

Stay stocked up with the necessities!

You would expect plenty of chaos and gore in a Vampire Apocalypse, but stealth can be just as important when trying to survive and avoid risky situations. Sometimes sneaking around the back and lock-picking the back door is better than spraying and praying through the front entrance, especially if you're going alone and not playing Multiplayer Co-Op mode. You'll need plenty of lockpicks and rewire kits to get around and loot all the best items. Here's how to stock up!

Unfortunately, you can only carry three lockpicks, and three rewire kits at a time. This means you will have to use them wisely when looting around town because they will run out quickly. If you'd like to stay better stocked up on lock-picking tools, then your best bet is to play Jacob.

Jacob is the only hero that can upgrade his Lockpick and Rewrite Kit capacity, allowing him to carry greater amounts of the tools at all times and not run out as quickly as the other heroes might. The Deeper Pockets skill only requires one Skill Point and can be upgraded immediately as soon as you restore the Fire Station. Trust me; it's a lifesaver.

Even if you aren't playing Jacob, you can still try to stay stocked up on Lockpicks and Rewire Kits as much as possible by heading to the Lost and Found at the Fire Station and purchasing them with some support. Lockpicks are usually 1,250 a piece, and Rewite Kits are 1,500. Keep salvaging unneeded guns to save up. In my experience, buying these becomes trivial not far into the game.

You can also find some lockpicks and rewire kits out and about when looting different locations in Redfall. Special areas with a higher chance of danger and bound to have more goodies for you to steal. These are some excellent places to check for these locking-picking necessities:

  • Island Crash Sites
  • Overton Theater
  • Cultist Bags
  • Garages
