Luck
So, does anyone want to tell me what luck does in the FF games? It's there, but, does it even do anything to help you? Please explain...

I've always wondered this myself. Here's what it says at the FF Wiki:
Quote:
|
Luck is a recurring stat in the Final Fantasy series, although it is not as common as other stats. It usually affects things such as critical hits and finding rare items, but also can influence other stats like Evasion and Accuracy. In other games, where there is no luck stat, there are other stats which determine these.
|
I have no clue where they got the info from though, so I'm not saying it's accurate.

Luck does affect those things which the FF Wiki mentions, but it's really unimportant to win the game. Other stats like strength, defense, etc. are vital. Luck is kinda like a bonus stat.

Haha yeah, it's pretty ambiguous as to what that stat really does. I mean it could increase your chances of getting rare items but there's also a chance that you won't, but it's still pretty necessary unless you want to get through the game with average equipment. xD

Luck is the gheyest thing ever. I've cheated and gotten Max luck, but nothing never happened. I think I died more times than I ever lived in FFVII when I did that.

But all of that's what the point is not. The point's that's there ain't no romance 'round there.

i actually do think its just for critical hits and stuff but who knows about the rare items things? everyone in your party has different luck usually so i donno..mind u the luck of ur party could add up to get rare items after battle

I always assumed that luck possibly contributed to the chance of getting a critical hit; but that really is just a guess!
As well as this, I thought luck could determine the rarity of items you receive after battle.
