First things first in this skill and that is buying it from a trainer so you can begin. So when you hit level 16 or so go buy it and get ready for a long ride.
Now head off to the Redridge mountains and obtain the quest "Alther's Mill" from a guy named Lucius. Then head on down like your going to do the quest. hese chests respawn quickly and may be practiced upon from 1-100 skill, though you may need to level a few times to allow the 100 mark.
Then get your but up to lvl 20, skipping the idea of bieng a twink. At 20 you will learn how to make poisons.
Go to the Old Town in Stormwind. Master Mathias Shaw at SI:7 headquarters offers the first quest in the chain, Mathias and the Defias. The quest takes place in a tower on the southern border of Westfall near Stranglethorn Vale, along the river, and requires a skill level of 70 in Lockpicking to complete. This chest that can be picked repeatedly from 70-170 in skill.
Once you get to 150-170, you can go to Angor Fortress in Badlands. Go to the upper parts, and pickpocketing for junkboxes will help. Once you get to 175 you can open all of the boxes in the fortress. Another very good place to go is Sar'theris Strand in northwest Desolace. Underwater, there are plenty of [Waterlogged Footlockers], that will easy get you from 175-210. Highly recommended to bring an elixir of waterbreathing though.
Once at 205 or so, go to the Scarlet Monastery doors and continually unlock the 2 doors outside, then go into the cathedral and unlock it, then repeat. till u get from 205-225
At 225, go to Searing Gorge. Down in the slag pit are [Dented Footlockers]. You can open all of them, and again pickpocket for junkboxes. Additionally, you can travel to the Swamp of Sorrows. A water breathing potion makes circling the deep water around the Sunken Temple much easier, as [Mossy Footlockers] spawn throughout the area. Stay in either of these locations until 225-255.
The best place to raise your skill from 250-300 is in Blackrock Depths. Simply go in, turn to the left and unlock the Shadowforge Gate. Continue forward and take the first right, picking the next Shadowforge Gate. Pick the first door on the left, the East Garrison Door, and head forward staying on the bottom level. Pick the large wooden object sticking out of the ground below the giant gear, The Shadowforge Lock, and then head out of the instance and reset it before doing all four again. Note that you can only reset the instance 5 times before it disables you from entering, saying "You have entered too many instances recently". This is valid for the whole account and resets roughly an hour after you entered the first time.
A location for leveling lockpicking between 300-max is outside of Black Temple in Shadowmoon Valley (very east side, hunk of land sticking out). Stay near the blood elves that are paladins/warriors (not by name), not the demon hunters. Pickpocket these and kill them to have them respawn.
and thats it. Goodluck ^_^
