They addressed the luck sweet spot two patches ago. Also my anecdotal experience with mining with a mining luck amulet has been noticeably better. I’ve been getting about 2 legendary drops (tolvium or cinnabar) every 20-25 orichalcum nodes.

Here’s the patch notes on the matter. . . I don’t think it was the amulet per se. I think the issue was this luck sweet spot.

  • Rare Resources from Gathering Nodes
    • Thanks to reports in the forums, we found a probability issue with rare resources from T2/3/4 gathering nodes and resolved it. Thanks to everyone who contributes to making New World better with your reports!
    • The short version is we had a couple of probabilities that were multiplying each other resulting in a near-zero chance of some already-rare items dropping. This combined with an issue that could make it next to impossible for an item to drop if your luck values were too high (not exactly how luck should work!), which translated into a “luck sweet spot” that you had to be in to even have a chance (that near-zero chance) at getting a drop.
    • With this fix, things like Fae Iron, Voidmetal, Phasefiber, and Petrified Wood should now have an appropriate chance to drop after you reach a certain Trade Skill level.
      • This chance can be increased by eating the appropriate Trade Skill when gathering.
      • Trade Skill foods also enables the possibility for these to drop before you would ordinarily be able to receive them based on your Trade Skill level alone, albeit at a very rare rate.

I take it back. Someone did testing on the “sweet spot” theory vs. amulets giving negative luck as of 5 days ago, and they claim amulets are giving negative luck.
