Not sure if anyone has concrete data on this besides dev(s) but I wonder if Magic luck applies on monster spawn, on hit, on killing blow, or a combination of the 3?
If nobody's tested it I will do some of my own

I guess in the past this was not possible to figure out. Your best bet will be checking this by waiting for overspawns. You can never be 100% certain but with a big sample you could eventually be able to figure this out.

Yeah that's what I was thinkin, get some T3 magic luck gear and do a few different scenarios

1-5 wearing ml whole time
1-5 wearing no ml to spawn, then putting on ml to hit + kill
1-5 wearing ml, spawn, switch no no-ml

Should be enough to notice via unspawnables

There was a post by... I want to say gunslingerofold when the rewrite was fresh. From the testing he was doing he had come to the conclusion that the ML check was applied at different times based on what you were doing.

For regular mobs and EPs it seems the ML is on death
For welling it seems the ML is applied to the main item upon spawning the monster but the side drops get ML applied on death.


I havent had a ton of overspawns that Ive noticed but I have seen a noticeable difference in drops since I started last hitting EPs/wells with ML on.

AHS is right though... the only way to figure out for sure would be extensive testing since paul doesnt release info...

U can wear it to spawn a well monster then kill the monster with reg gear and it can still give you overspawn on main drop.

If you want the side drops to give you overspawns then you need to kill the well monster with the magic luck on

Is this the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you pinky?

Yes

I have 100% tested it so have others .

I promise

This has been confirmed by several people

This is true. However... I have arguably had the best results with overspawns so far, and I don’t switch from my ml gear to normal gear after I throw a wellable in, not do I switch gear to ML before the kill...

If you wear ML the whole time and don’t take it off, then you’ll have best results with overspawns—I promise!
