Is Lucky wort taking?
The Luck feat seems useful and useless at the same time. Is it actually worth picking up.

It's nice when it converts an incoming crit to an incoming miss. This is a pretty rare result though, so don't count on it always working to that extent.

No idea, it sounds like it could support some high-risk, high-reward strats, but it does not allow for enough control to be certain of any kind of outcome. You're probably better off building for consistency.

Yes it is. I chose it for my Bard and it's used on most results and made a big difference to my Bard.

In 5e? Absolutely. It's one of the most powerful feats you can get.

BG3? Eh. Seems useful but not as powerful.

Not worth taking when you can boost attributes.

However, if you are a second playthrough, experimental type of gamer, then yes.

I would have slap it on my Rogue.

It has niche uses but ultimately not worth taking over ASI or other useful feats depending on your play style (like GWM, polearm master, sharpshooter, medium armor (because a warlock or wizard with 21 ac is nearly untouchable even at level 10)
its great in table top.
but in BG3, the enemy will probably reroll and get a 19 and you'll reroll and get a 2.

source: i've been rolling with advantage on karlach and the number of back to back nat 1's is ridiculous.

Lucky has got me through a lot of bad rolls.. its well worth picking up early on..

With lucky early I hardly failed things I needed and once i started to get boosted attributes as well made it even better..

But if you get to the point where you think you dont need it any more remember you can respec and go for something else.

It gives great synergy with Divination WIzard. You get so many rerolls it pretty insane. Feel like a god controlling battlefield. Its also good for dialogue. Especially helpful in situations where you dont have a lot of other bonuses.

I hate it soooo much.

It's a great Feat. Useful in and out of battle. And that's the problem.
Being spammed every second with Lucky prompts is super annoying.
Turning off the prompts then makes it useless.

Blargh!

no, asi is much better, maybe as a third or fourth (fighter) feat it could be decent, but tbh its not neccesary by that point since you will be demolishing everything

It feels like attribute boost is basically a needed feat for every character, regardless of build.

It's extremely good in 5e and still really good here.

not correct for tactician. I have chars with 22 AC(Shadowheart) and 25 AC(my main) get constantly hit on tactician difficulty.
