Well, I guess 150 luck (+40 from spined) IS possible... ya I know they are brittle, CBR, and shatty resists... but hey, for a caster or a tamer? I think they fit the bill JUST FINE!!!

THANK YOU FORGED ARTIFACT 100% CHANCE FOR SUCCESS!!!

Yes, thanks Petra, that was what I was trying to imbue :)

Also, even better than getting them...

Knowing that base 150 is possible for other pieces...

Not that anyone WASN'T already farming Shame for luck items, but this really makes Luck suit numbers hit some crazy peaks...

Here is my base and base + Luck statue:

Plus a possible +1000 from perfection; and isn't there a possible chance to obtain luck from throwing a lucky coin in that one pond? I don't know for sure, I forget.

yes and yes to both...

I also just got a 150 war axe and a 150 jester hat :)

EDIT;

AND another pair of sleeves!! hmmm something is fishy here...

is it b/c I'm wearing the Luck suit (2880!!!!) that I'm getting these uber items, or is it a change in the game?

I have a pure 170 compound. I suppose there is a wood luck bonus. Dont know for sure but, that would be 210.

Or atleast 170 is dropping and 200+ luck weapons are just around the corner.

Rare? or just an eventually bump in bottom level luck suits?

Pretty cool, but still considerably lower than holding a 190 luck one handed wep and 190 luck shield ..

oak adds luck, but I wouldn't risk the enhance unless you have the tool for it.

yeah I lost a shield.

I think i got some code emailed to me months ago for a tool to not fail on imbuing or enhancing. I never used it.

True... but not bad if you have to go strictly archery.

And besides at 3k luck or close to that... you max luck.

So I can see the 170 or 210 enhanced bow being usefull if you have 2900 off other luck items.

Lots of changes coming I supsect.

Quick question. I'm working on a luck suit as well but am wondering, where do you get the luck sandals?

The luck sanddles are from a lucky coin you get of wolf spiders, goblins and other mobs in Abyss Tram side entrance...
You toss it in a fountain you pass by on the way to Navrey..
Not sure on the % chance of getting them..
I have tossed around 20 and nothing yet but buffs and a few relic frags.

Be nice if they were a tailoring BOD reward...
Give a reason to fill them out..

I've seen the same thing.

Luck above 950 or so and you get more mods, but with less intensity. But then, it also seems you have a better chance not to get any negatives with higher luck. So, kind of a trade off I think.

According to uoguide 3982 is the point of max luck... so yes there is room to grow on that.

So with the current changes accounts 9 years or older can now achieve 100% luck chance

6X190: 1140
Jewelry: 400
Tunic: 200
Gorget: 300
Boots: 80
Robe: 140
Sphynx: 80
Perfection: 1000
Luck statue: 650

Bringing the total to: 3990

I scored a perfectly clean 150 luck ring last night.
Will that work out better than the 400 from the blue set?

I just scored a clean tribal mask with 150 luck and NO mods :D

Hope it can be imbued like everything else as they only come with 4 resists ;)

IMO it will for a sampire as the set is lacking in the HCI/DCI stuff and the other mods. I've tried taking a tamer down to farm stuff but the sampire is just so much more a better option.

It appears that I can add full HCI, DCI and either 8 LMC or 25 EP if I wished but for what I have been fighting I made a new ornate and have not bothered chugging at all.

I would absolutely use a 300 luck combo jewelry set over the Bleu set to get better mods...

I could use:
More LMC
INT bonuses &
Skill points
Oh my...

Give me "clean" 150 luck rings and braces

ALL DAY LONG!

Remember that for Enhancing, the chance of failing on a Luck imbue is

30% + (Current Luck/2)

at 140 Luck prior to Enhancing, failure becomes 100%, unless you use the Forged Metal of Artifacts tool.

Um... That would be the "gorget-300" that was in your own quote...

And I think the Sphinx is more than 80 and even though it is unlikely that someone will do it consistantly, you can get 400, I think, from tossing lucky coins.

Also, someone gaining a Perfection bonus isn't going to be wearing a Max luck suit ...(does YOUR sampire where AOF?.... Didn't think so) So why make these stupid lists of max possible when the pieces necessary don't make sense IN-GAME?

Sorry for the rant, I just think "max luck" will depend on what template you're using.

Just a thought.

Max from statue is 900 isn't it?
This item, which can be locked down in a house and uses standard access permissions, grants a character one hour of boosted luck in a 24 hour period. The amount of boost is determined by the age of the game account. The minimum boost is 200 luck, plus 50 for each year of continuous subscription.

Well not a sampire build actually I use:

111 taming
111 lore
90 vet
120 Bushido
120 swords
100 tactics
100 chiv

send in GD then strike away with my katana (50 hla 50 hld 60 mana leech and 50 stamina.)

45 hci and I hit perfection every time. I currently run with around 3200 luck including statue and perfection. If the critter switches my suit is all 70's so I can take the hit and run and inv's using potion until gd gains aggro back .

Uh, actually yes I do use AOF in a sampire suit, along with bleue jewels, lucky mempo & sandals. I carry a luck suit in my sampire's pack, about 1500 luck with all 70s, max HCI & DCI. What I give up is stat mods. I use it for early levels of spawns (get about 3x more pinks compared with non-luck suit) and it works just fine against the EVs down on level 5 shame. When doing spawns I swap out for my woodland armor suit when level 3 appears (depending on the spawn) and can easily solo pretty much all of them (not Bedlam or Weald).

But handling the the Shame 5th level EVs is super easy with this suit, I can walk downstairs and answer the front door and everything is just fine when I get back. When I'm paying close attention I can drop them in about 5-6 minutes; if I'm browsing the web on my other computer they drop in like 10 minutes. With perfection, luck statue & suit loot has been nice; I haven't gotten anything super-duper with perfectly matched mods, but I get about 2-3 legendary artifacts per EV with 8-10 mods so plenty of relics at least.

So yeah, before you go on a rant, learn something about the game.

Am I the only one who read this post? Normally I'm on the side that thinks it's fine for items like the forged metal tool because in my reasoning they saved time, but did not give functionality that you could not obtain in normal gameplay. I'm of the opinion, if your post is correct, that a change needs to be made. If you have 0% chance to enhance an item without using the forged metal tool they need to make a change to the formula. Yes, you can always buy a forged metal tool in game from someone for gold, but it still seems to me a change is needed.

Thanks for highlighting this reply. I guess that answers why every time I've tried it's been a total fail, silly Picus.

"Waste" is in the eye of the beholder...

I have 2 of these tools... one that I bought when they were introduced, and another 10 charge one that I found on a vendor on Catskills for 5m...

So I was very happy to use a charge for these arms to boost my luck suit while I farm for better pieces....

It's my gold, why does it matter to you? What the HECK else is there to buy in this game?

To each his own.
