Any chance of luck being removed from weapons/armor?

General Discussion General Discussion

I personally can’t stand having to make the choice between getting good drops or being stronger and a better teammate in group content.

I’m fine with luck on bags, trophies, consumables, etc. but anything that requires you to sacrifice power to be “lucky”, feels really bad. Other games that have done this in the past, such as Diablo with magic find, completely reversed course on it. Why has AGS stuck by it? I rarely see people complain about it, but it’s a major pain point to me in going through endgame content.

I would much rather they remove the perk completely from armor and weapons and buff the world drop rates accordingly. Is there anyone who wouldn’t prefer that?

I agree but, I feel you’re going to get flamed for making a critical post.

Can’t complain about that, honestly the luck should only be the trophies, your bags and food for loot wise. Tools for your profession obviously.

Good Suggestion! It will allow for more diverse builds becuase luck takes up a slot. I dont like the luck mechanic in the game.

Seems like people generally agree, but not as hot a topic as others so will probably get buried and not changed, which is too bad.

so far no flame :slight_smile: I agree to a point as well. would be nice.

its not really a hot take.

luck shouldnt be on gear.

pve should be defined by wards
pvp is defined by resil.

if the rng wasnt soo bad there whould be less need for it. having it on trophies food and bags should be how it is.

im still running it now though because of the supersticion.

Let me just trash my luck gear I spent well over 100k on, no thanks. Also I feel like luck was stealth buffed last patch because I got a rare trophy mat at least once everyday since then.

yeah feels like there was some kinda luck buff.

got a pat and a stacked in a single run.

still havent seen a single loaded dice yet though.

that’s just RNG, how many other times have you ran and got nothing. Don’t let the bias distract you from the fact that running full luck contributes almost nothing and it’s not much different to a non-luck build.

Normally id say the same thing but something does feel different.

iv run hundreds of runs. with almost nothing to show for for weeks on end.

then suddenly every other day i get some kind of trophy matt usually 2 or 3 every other day.

its really odd.

and its not just me.

all my chest running buds have done the same as well as the market chat is flooded with wts.

@Doc-6 I understand your statistic preference on gear and your desire to be able to contribute your very best during group play. Thank you for offering up some ideas to make Luck feel better for you. I will take your feedback and submit them to the team.
