Gather-Luck Sweetspot or Gather-Luck-Amulet broken?

[bloodylove.sp]

Hi,
seems that the Gather-Luck is kind of broken.
Maybe the “sweetspot” still exists or the amulet seems broken.

I have:
2 x basic mining trophy
1 x minor mining trophy
full mining armor set
T4 or T5 mining luck buffood
and also the mining luck amulet

If i wear the amulet - the drops are so bad! no tolvium, no gems … its really bad…
as soon as i take the amulet off, everything drops in a way higher rate!
Please investigate!

There is also a Video on Youtube with a guy, testing this with skinning… same result… amulet seems broken: Testing LUCK Rumors in New World! Get More Legendary Mats! - YouTube

This has been reported in other forum threads many times by many different people, however no staff members have made comments on those threads. I’ve reported it myself with extensive detailed information and testing results. It clearly is an issue with luck on amulets.

Here are just 2 of the many threads, I wish somebody would really follow up on this. I also put in a support ticket. However, I never get any information back from any of my support issues.

this has to be investigated - so 1 more thread about it… maybe giving this topic a little more weight…

I just mined 4 orichalcum nodes with my 8.8% mining luck amulet on and got 8 tolvium/8 cinnabar.

You do you though.

[bloodylove.sp]

ok, so maybe “sweetspot” again… do you have (and how many) trophies? gear equipped as well as bufffood?

[HarshHash]

2000 mining food.
8.8% amulet.
9.1% pickaxe.
1 basic mining trophy, 2 minor
4.9% on 1 armour pieces and 5% on the last 4 for a total of 24.9% from armour.
Also PvP flagged if that still works.

Been mining logging in and out for the last 3 hours on 5 nodes, haven’t had the best of luck only managed to mine 1200 ori ore with others taking nodes while im offline, but I am up to 23 tolvium and 8 cinnabar now also.

UPDATE: After reading this post, i took off my amulet and immediately got 6 tolvium…

After last nights maintenance my mining luck seems to have hit the floor. I might be having a bad day but… seems strange considering i usually average at least 20 tol . 20 cin per day.

Today i have mined roughly 4k orichalcum ore with no rare drops. Nothing.

T5 food, 5% armor set, 9% amulet, 2x major trophy, 1x minor. 8.4% pickaxe.

The second Major trophy is new as of last night also but maybe its the cause… too much of a good thing can be a bad thing? lol no idea…
