How does luck work?

[Sisano]

This would be a two part question that I couldn't find a real answer for so far.
What does Luck Actually impact?
The obvious answer would be that it imacts chance based spells (anything that says "X% chance to happen") which are actually not that many. The description says it also impacts items and this is where the big confusion comes in. Does it impact items that have passives such as "X% chance to cast a spell"? Does impact % chance for adpet offers? Does it impact crit and evasion? Does it impact pick-up drops?

How does Luck impac it?
Okay after we clarify what it impacts, can someone also tell me how it actually works? If I have 1% Crit and 100% luck does this mean that I have 101% Crit or 2% crit? Does it have some hidden multiplier the same way evesion does? Does it impact different parts differently?

I have read some nonsense online so I would love it if we can get dev confirmation or if someone actually spent time to test it and did the math.

Thank you.

Not sure if it helps on %-based gear but luck increases the chance of spells triggering with the x% chance to cast a spell.

It does not do anything to evasion, crit or pick-up. Those are different and have their own multipliers that can be increased.

Also hover over luck(or any other stat) in the character tab and the game should give you an explanation of the stat

if a spell has 20% chance to activate and you have 100% luck, does it have 40% or 100%?

I think you can see the numbers after you finish a run.
Just hover over the endscreen skills to see how much it did.

40%.

The description is super vague. It basically says that it imapcts anything that is chance-based except for the rarity of item drops. This is why it makes me believe that it impacts crit and evasion since it is a chance based stat that is given to you by items. But this is what I "think" I don't really know. It would also make sense that it only imapcts when it directly says "Has % chance of happening" which would include item skills.

It literally does what it says, nothing more, nothing less
