Players should constantly dispose of their older items in Lost Ark in exchange for silver or upgrade materials. However, in midst of clearing out the cabinet, players should be careful as to not sell or dismantle the more valuable belongings. In order to make sure your high rarity items are safe, you need to know how to lock them.
Lost Ark item locking guide
As briefly mentioned before, locking items is the only way to make sure your items are safe from being accidentally dismantled or sold. Locking an item prohibits it from being traded, changed, dismantled, destroyed, or used as a material. A locked item can be Honed. However, you need to have Locked Enhancements turned on from your settings.
In order to lock an item from your inventory, follow these steps:
- Hover over the item of choice
- Press Ctrl + Right Click (PC) / Right Trigger + Left Stick Button (Controller)
- Select Lock
