Luck affects a variety of chance-based effects and is represented by a 3-leaf clover.
Effects of luck
Luck influences many different elements:
- Room drops: For calculating room drops, luck is capped between 0 and 10, with higher luck not only resulting in higher amounts of drops but also higher quality drops such as chests.
- Room drop rates are otherwise identical in Normal and Hard game modes, but Hard mode removes 65% of heart type drops, replacing them with nothing.
- Tear effect chance: The chance of shooting tears with status effects becomes more likely as Luck goes up. This scales up to 100% chance per tear in most cases with enough Luck.
- Most of the status inflicting effects require a very unlikely high number of Luck to activate on every tear.
- Since these effects persist on the enemies for a set amount of time regardless of the Tears stat, a fast rate of fire is often enough to affect an enemy indefinitely.
- Most of the status inflicting effects require a very unlikely high number of Luck to activate on every tear.
