I think Luck also effects a higher chance of stealing an item quicker.

I'm sure higher luck increases your chances of stealing rarer items and recieving them as an reward at the end of a battle in X, as well as getting the critical hit (aka OVERKILL)

Getting a critical hit doesn't give you an overkill

Talk about a necropost. o_O

Luck, by its own definition, should do with finding rare items or saving you. Seriously.

I was talking about the FFVII materia. It luck DOES give you a better chance to manipulate monsters actually.

Well if an enemy has 129 HP and you get a critical hit for 2960 HP, that's definitely an overkill.

Just because the game doesn't flash 'OVERKILL!!' in neon pink letters doesn't mean it's not an overkill. That being said, I love overkills, and thus I love the Luck stat.

*ahhh luck the mysterious stat that seems to be utterly useless..but wait something has entered my mind and made me remember

*luck is for the critical hits in battle for a direct attack

yep since i played FF1 in SNES it was a big factor to have luck inorder to produce more damage

but nowadays luck seems to be a nuisance

D:

*ive remembered in some final fantasy games,cant remember what version but it was connected to how much a special attack and how many hits can produce

*luck also has a rate for evading or blocking in final fantasy tactics

very handy if you had high luck then hed be a ghost totally getting miss attacks on enemies

*thats all,hope it was all accurate

Luck is really handy if you want to steal a rare item from your enemy. And if you're fighting a boss, there is less chance for it to attack you with it's most powerful blast.

For example, if you were attacked by a Malboro in FFX it would release "Bad Breath" on you at the beggining of the battle. If your luck is high enaugh it won't do it.
Same applies if you cast Jinx on your enemies.

It's probably the only facotr I've never really paid attention to in FF games solely for the fact that I can't really control it. Sure I can try to get my luck up to 255, but for some reason that stat always seems to be the hardest to raise in FF games.

THen again, I think it only controls the occurances of somethings such as what enemies appear, how hard you hit and how much you hit for when attacking, and jazz like that.

luck affects things like if you get status affects what items u get at end of battle things like that

Luck can also increase your chance of citical hit and deal greater damage to foes.
