Luck is one of those stats that quietly does a lot—without ever explaining itself. You’ll see it on items like the Overlycomplicated Coin, which gives you “+100% Luck for 0.8 seconds,” and you might think, Okay... but what does that actually mean?
Here’s what it means: Luck increases the chance that your chance-based items actually work.

How Luck Works
Let’s say you’ve got an item like Clown Boots. Those give you a 30% chance to turn a bad landing into a perfect one.
If you add 50% Luck, that 30% chance goes up to 45%. It’s a flat boost—not a multiplier. So it doesn’t multiply the chance by 1.5, it just adds +15%.
Luck = better odds on gear that relies on randomness.
When Is Luck Useful?
Luck matters most when your build leans into chaos:
Chance to crit
Chance to dodge
Chance for effects to trigger
Chance for bonus movement or healing
If it says “might” or “has a chance to,” then Luck makes it better.
That’s why the Overlycomplicated Coin is so expensive—it spikes your Luck in short bursts, which can turn low odds into high-impact moments. Even if it’s just for a second, it’s often enough.
Final Blurb
Luck won’t save you from bad reflexes, but it will make your weird builds actually click. If you’re rolling with gear that depends on randomness, throw some Luck into the mix. Suddenly, your “maybe” turns into “probably,” and that’s the kind of math that wins runs.
