Can't seem to use Skeleton Pinkie (Mechagnome Racial) to open boxes?

[Gimix-durotan]

I have a level 80 Mechagnome Monk, but his skeleton pinkie isn’t working on this Bismuth lockbox I found. Did they change something? =( Thanks in advance if you can answer my query.

Edit: This seems to be fixed since the recent patches, at least for me.

I don’t know, but apparently Bismuth Lockboxes got some kind of change or nerf in 11.2. Maybe this is related?

No lower level Bind on Equip drops

It seems since the most recent patch 11.2 all uncommon lower level bind on equip gear that normally drops from mobs or bismuth lockboxes no longer drops below lvl 80. Bismuth boxes used to be a guaranteed uncommon gear or another bismuth box now it only returns gold for lockboxes below lvl 80, and mobs when your below lvl 80 have not dropped a single uncommon piece of gear when i’ve attempted to farm for one.

Have you tried it on other types of lockboxes?

There is also this thread in Bug Reports, so maybe not limited to Mechagnomes

Lockpicking broken with new patch

I was trying to open lockbox on my lvl 80 rogue,and it seems to be broken now since newest patch. I checked my addons,I turned them all off and still lockpicking is no longer working. I get the highlight like its going to work then when I click on lockbox nothing happens.Its still locked and greyed out saying its locked.this happened on a KHORIUM Lockbox.

Hi again, Gráinne! You’re very helpful today. Well, I submitted a bug report. Seems like the boxes are probably glitchy. I like having a mechagnome because I’m not a big Rogue-player, here’s hoping the problem gets solved for everyone soon. Thanks again.
