Attribute luck?

[udtojan95]

What does luck affect?

I made two saves.
One with the lowest luck possible.
And the other one with luck on 100.

When i play i can not show any difference. Damage, Loot etc. is all the same.
So what is luck for?

Luck is a complete waste of time

Cant tell at this point, i got it on all my buffs just encase. but i see no difference, maybe it helps crit rate more than loot, all my loot in chests are just a little amount coins.

Then pls answer my question if you know why it is a complete waste of time.

It adds a lot to many different factors none of them are game-breaking. Just keep it at 50 or above and don't stress about it. It's a dump stat once everything else is maxed. For more in-depth information watch the linked youtube video that a youtuber named ItalianSpartacus made.

really ? i'm fed up using one attribute choice just to get 1 point

but i read that it's better to get at lesat 60 for some features in the game, is that correct ?

This is from a Wiki:

Luck affects the chances of contracting diseases. The Hero has a better chance of resisting disease as their luck increases. If their luck drops below 50, they have a better chance of catching a disease, to the point where a simple hit from most disease giving creatures will contract a sickness.

When betting at the arena, the combatant from the team that was bet on will have higher health based on the luck attribute. The higher the luck, the more health the combatant will have.

Luck may or may not affect enemy loot but testing has not been conclusive.
Luck will occasionally stop traps from activating until one passes.

Luck affects a skill's overall performance. When one's luck is greater than 50, it adds a bonus to all skills. If luck is less than 50, it adds a penalty to all skills.

Put points in it if you want to get quirky with Mehrunes' Razor.

It's required to reach a max char.
All attributes at 100 in base, means no more leveling. ;)

At max luck your skills can go to 120 instead of 100 at 50 & below. +4 to all skills for every 10 points in luck attribute past 50. If you want to max it out you should be taking luck at every level up.

It affects whether or not a hammer or lockpick breaks when you fail a use. It also adds hidden skill points towards all your skills equally, capped at 100. It will not trigger skill perks. Only the base benefit for skills. At 100 Luck you have, effectively, +20 in every skill IIRC.

you can go to jail and it will randomly lower some of your skills so that you can keep leveling up, the problem will be that enemies will scale to your level and you're going to end up higher level than if you took it from level 1 which will make the game harder. If taken from level 1 you should be max level with 100 in all skills and attributes at around level 50
