Potential Locks How do they work

How do potential locks work?
I read that you potential lock the cube but if you put it on a cube and use it will you have to lock one line?
Or can you keep cubing until you want to lock one line.

All help is appreciated thanks !

I have a quick question. There is a guy selling atk+109 psb, hidden pot but there is a 1 line pot which says ATK+9%. If I buy that and open the pot, would the pot be Unique 2L or 3L with ATK+9% and other random pot?

Yes locks description says it only works with regular cubes and will not protect with Super and Premium Cubes. So when you hit legendary it will not work and if your trying to get a 3rd line for your equipment it wont work. Seems somewhat useless if your going for legendary but to get something in unique it would be great. I wonder if your able to use more than one lock at a time and lock two lines O...O

Meh to people saying 40% boss lock it won't work. Locks stop working in unique . Also doesn't work when using prem cubes and super cubes. So sad really (well thats what the description says and now that everyone says 10 locks i think im going to go buy nx and cube some crap now)

EDIT:@awelchywelch: Eh people don't sell old NX cards rather they merch to get NX and then they resell it on certain sites at a certain rate. I've gotten as low as $.50:1k. It usually just deals with trust :S but buying Karma coins is 100% safer but then again can always be more costly

What does happen when the epic -> unique o.o
But I don't see why you'd want to lock an epic pot

Your char name goes well with your reasoning.

Before 10 people proved you wrong, you coulda just checked the CS yourself.

@Slypheran: which would in turn make the game much more fair to the average, unfunded player. I don't think nexon realizes this but they're completely eliminating the population of players that want to play for fun and not to spend all of their lunch money on NX.

[quote=Slypheran]If that were the case there would be waaaaay too many 36% stat or 120% boss items around.

@HermitBoyo: Well, someone already hinted that there were ten per package, and yet he was still too stubborn to simply check and assumed that he was correct while everyone else was wrong.[/quote]

IMO: The game needs more 36% stat/ 120% boss items around ;O

Not shengnoob's fault if he didn't know it was 10 locks. None of the posts mentioned it either. It's a honest mistake.

@aoebm: no idea, and not enough money to test that.

@shengnoob: <perfect example of someone going full retard, and being a smartass about it. it's 10 locks smartass.

Do you get to pick the line or is it the first line?

[quote=RiceTastesGood]if potential lock could lock potential forever - it would be worth the 10k nx cash that nexon claims it is worth[/quote]

AGREED. It should be one lock to make a line permanent for an infinite amount of cubes, and then another lock to unlock a line.

[quote=Taichikara]@AkatsukiLove: yes, since those locks normlly would be 14.5k nx, so that's a savings of about 145 bucks.[/quote]

[quote=TribalEMP]so the potential locks, are they one use only? like... if you used one to lock the potential once, if you cube it, do you have to use another one?[/quote]

Sadly, yes. They're 1-use.

[quote=Taichikara]when you get a cubes and locks, both must be in your inventory. when you put your item in to cube it, you check either one of the boxes for what line to lock or you check to not use the lock.

if you check to lock that line, then that line doesn't get cubed but the rest will.

each time you do this it will ask you as long as you have at least 1 item lock in your inventory.[/quote]

Thank you very much !
Do you think the cube and Potential lock sale for 36k NX is worth getting?
Im planning to cube my weapon from Epic
