Getting the achievment.
Here's a very easy lock that makes getting the achievement extremely easy.

Go to chapter 5, enter the asylum, trigger the cutscene and then go upstairs. Next to the desk is a locked cupboard.
Quicksave, then open using right-left-right. It's the easiest lock i have come across, should get it first or second try.

Oh man, thats hard...
How do you made it? With mouse / wasd?
i tried many times, nothing happened...
Do you have high or low fps? Now on v. 1.7 it does not work well...
What time is ~estimated for doing this?

I play on PC with mouse&keyboard. Also this chest in Xiao-Xiao's cabinet or inner room (cannot remember exactly) was opened on patch 1.3 with help turned off (no white dots below). Also my PC do not give me perfect frame rate and I was quite surprized so easy lockpick. ;)

Can't remember that one but might depend on what controls you use, using mouse and kyboard this one practically opened itself, on master difficulty.

In my experience Xiao-Xiao chest was easier: left-left-left. But may be it can change sometimes.

Thanks. My last achievement. With mouse you have to circle to position L/R/L and keyboard directions are not working. I think with gamepad it is easier.

No big deal I know, just liked that particular spot so thought I'd whip one up.

I applaud you for making the guide, I suppose, but a guide for this really shouldn't be necessary. I got it without even trying.
