Sorry you only opened small wood chests after chugging a potion dude.

It depends on the loot table of the thing you're looting and the amount of luck. A normal chest if you have 100-200 luck may not make much of a difference but a boss like the Troll will make a difference, because less items in the loot table.

Luck boosts the drop chance of all things at once, including garbage gear. It doesnt increase droprate, so the rate on epics and legendaries etc is cancelled out by the increased rate on common and uncommon etc. Essentially it does nothing according to the math as presented. It boosts your chances of getting keys.

I am not 100% sure how exactly luck works (hence i posted thread asking that CyanCatMan linked) but this statement is not true.

Notice that at 0 luck you get percentages from scalars like this:
- junk 22%
- poor 25%
- common 20%
- uncommon 15%
- rare 10%
- epic 5%
- legendary 2%
- uniqure 1%

While at 500 luck you get:
- junk 9.102%
- poor 10.343%
- common 12.412%
- uncommon 12.412%
- rare 29.003%
- epic 16.057%
- legendary 7.045%
- uniqure 3.626%

Lower qualities are lowered and starting from rare+ they are increased.

Notice that some items simply do not drop untill you get into inferno/abyss too.

But i would love to see someone who cracked this entirely that could give extended explanation.

3x the chance of unique is nice if you manage to get 500 luck but counter argument is your chances of surviving pvp plummet cause not everyone is doing a luck build

Agree with this one.

Sweet spot i found is doing 150-250 luck runs in 25-124 brackets on low roller. Gear difference will not be that much then.
