It'd be nice if there was some understanding, even among the implementors, about what this particular aspect of the game entails.

I can think of three things off the top of my head that effect the luck stat in some way.

1. Certain pieces of gear.
2. The Deck of Fate
3. A certain power in a certain cabal that has a certain subsection that very very few people know about.

I think it probably effects gambling first and foremost, but I wonder about other things as well. These other things could be chalked up to coincidence and the RNG, but during my tinkering with the power in #3 I noticed my "victims" would do things like always flee in the direction of an aggro mob.

I e-mailed Valg about point three. Problem is, in order to prove that this isn't based on "Luck", they would have to reveal how this skill actually works, so I can perfectly understand why they wouldn't want to reveal that.

Kinda irks me though. I would've liked a response that at least said "We're not going to tell you that," rather than nothing at all. I thought I was being very civil, friendly, understanding, and courteous in the e-mail; I don't understand why I didn't get any of that in return. I have e-mailed the staff in the past about issues that jeopardized their secrecy and gotten prompt responses, why can't they treat every issue with the same courtesy? Yes, "luck" is a non-issue. I'm inclined to believe the staff when they say it doesn't exist, and I indicated such in the e-mail. But the response to circumstances such as these only fuel conspiracy theories. I do understand the importance of secrecy in such matters, but I don't understand the very basic lack of common courtesy with which it is maintained.

There's understanding among me, and we all know I'm the only one that matters! Also, I make sure any characters I play get 47 luck so that I can do super-great things that no one has ever thought of. Except I don't play anymore... but if I did, I'd be the luckiest ####er ever. Whatever that'd do for me.

How's about worrying about #### that matters instead of the globs of inane crap I have to sift through every day? Novel concept, I know.
And yes, I played that character that pk'd you. Every time.

Didnt know luck was involved in "at xxx slay xxx" ...

Sorry, couldnt resist it... Hehe...

I think I heard there was a mummy power that could mess with your luck (and probably other things)
