Dex needed for Lockpicking?

All of the guides I see say to lock it at 10 while training, but does it actually help with lockpicking once the skill is GM'd? I'm making a dungeon chest picker and would rather use the points in STR and INT if possible. Thanks!

My picker runs 100 STR/100 INT/25 DEX. The last chest I had to try to pick more than once was titan paragon chest. I can't tell you the last dungeon chest I failed on. The only reason to lock your dex at 10 is so that you can train picking on a GM tinker box longer. Once you are GM, there is no attribute bonus.
