Because I haven’t approached this with a number approach and a lot of it is just anecdotal. But I feel when gathering in PvP. When I have used luck food (2k) and mined about 1000 ori ore whilst pvp I got no drops (does adding more luck whilst pvp actually create negative luck?). When I was mining with out luck food approx. 1k Ori ore i got tolv and cin (30 total).
Also whilst Genesis farming, my company has recommened taking of your luck amulet because there could be negative luck associated with amulet luck. This has stemmed from a YT video where a guy skinned boars and actually wearing an amulet reduced the amount of luck. As said its a small sample size, hence more input is required or an AGS view point on it.
Because luck has been broken before, could it still be broken?
Was wandering if anyone had any input or have some statistics because I think that would give a better picture rather then anecdotal recounts.
So I just tested the negative luck thing and it’s not true. I just went to the level 60 strange boars with 200 skinning and an 8.8% amulet, which should of put me at 101,120, which is 30 less than the listed 101,150 minimum and managed to get Scarhide after ~30 kills.
If you check out his video and look at the spreadsheet he posted in the comments, you’ll notice that the predicted “No Luck” drop rate should be ~4.12%, where as in his video he mentions that his No Luck drop rate is 4.8%, which would match the 4.87% you get when you add in the luck skinning knife…
Best conclusion I can come up with, and maybe the @Community-Team can ask the dev team to check this, is that amulet luck isn’t being included in the luck calculations currently.
