Extensive Malas library including cities, landmarks, spawn locations, mining, and Doom/Doom rares.The building directly north of the Rune Library is home to BoF’s Lockpicking house.This excellent public training location contains 4 rows of chests, each row containing locked boxes that were tinkered at graduating skill levels (30, 50, 80 and GM). 100 lockable boxes are stored in each row of chests for the first 3 levels, and 200 GM level boxes in the final row. A very thorough lockpicking skill essay, as well as instructions for setting up a UO Assist macro are locked down near the chests. Public runebooks to popular lockpicking locations are conveniently located here as well. Lock picks are sold on a vendor near the front, as well as copies of the lockpicking rune books.The BoF Rune Library and the BoF Lockpicking House are excellent locations, and each are a welcome asset to the community.
