I got luck+5 on BD blades and went to test on trainer, then i pulled out non lucked blades and the difference was tiny and in some tests, both blades came out equal damage. Luck+5 has to be hitting way harder than this, i remember when i had luck+7 on euro and i was hitting like a boss. Hitting this low cant be right?

I like how you did all this testing, but couldn't be bothered to screenshot the results to show us, or even give us your stats 0_o

Very constructive, Wargod.....

Like i said, i did some testing on trainer,

20x double slash
total damage 970 - avg 48 (luck+5)
total damage 915 - avg 45 (non luck)

total damage - 798 - avg 38 (luck+5)
total damage - 930 - avg 46 (non luck)

total damage - 948 - avg 47 (luck+5)
total damage - 862 - avg 44 (non luck)

In some cases it's a tiny bit better and in other cases it gets beat..

I'm always constructive. You'd need to give your DC in both cases too. Assuming both blades are non DC+ they'd be the same i imagine but you know what they say about assuming...

Can provide any stats like what DC you had?
If you have good low end DC and not much gap between that and highend DC luck will be less beneficial for instance.

24-58 had orchid set on, as you can see in the second test, the non luck blades came out on top which is bizzare especially considering it was vs luck+5.
I'll test with higher DC and post results

---------- Post Merged at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous Post was at 09:44 AM ----------

1094 - 54
1068 - 53

902 - 45
830 - 42

1058 - 52
922 - 46

23 - 65 DC (top results are luck+5)

It's not really crying is it, if there is something wrong and needs sorting, It effects ALL classes.... tempted to try with a +1 luck necky.

Away with you.

Anyway...

Remember luck 5 isn't really ridiculous on here. It's gonna be at most 35% (i think, god why can i never remember the formula).

Try running a few tests with 5 minute spells, not 20 hits.

luck is exponential.
Luck 5 is 20%
Luck 6 is 25%
Luck 7 is 33%
Luck 8 is 50%
Luck 9 is 100%

wow, im actually pleasantly surprised by that. Im glad to know Luck +7 is not so ridiculous as I imagined.

People are complaining but THIS is exactly how it is on pretty much every Mir in existence even Mir 3.


Crystal files (or atleast originally) I put it to be a Flat 10% per luck, the problem with 10% per luck is that Luck 5 on Crystal is the same as Luck 8 on official, and pointless going any higher as the value per luck and the difficult to get are swapped around.

can we get the full list?

Luck 1 = 11.1111%
Luck 2 = 12.5%
Luck 3 = 14.2857%
Luck 4 = 16.6666%
Luck 5 = 20%
Luck 6 = 25%
Luck 7 = 33%
Luck 8 = 50%
Luck 9 = 100%

I'm sorry, but that's ridiculous
It's directly proportional to how difficult that level is luck is to apply, so it actually makes sense. But with how hard 5 is to get to , 20% does seems jarring doesn't it?
