Hello fellow community members,
I got some questions regarding Magic luck:
1) does it increase the overall chance of drop of magic items (aka Quantity)
2A) Does it open the possiblitiy to get over the cap for an item (so the RANGE gets exceeded, no direct influence on the value though)
2B) Does it increase the overall quality by a margin? (Lets say EE spawns on an item, will ML add 1-20 at least + the normal roll?) (aka Quality)

Would be nice if someone with insights could answer this.

Kind regards

Did you even read my post? Or did you only see the buzzword ml and blindly linked a thread?
Just for you :
Quantity: do more items drop (A) or do more items that would have dropped anyways get magical+? (B)
If it is b it might be better to not get ml to get the juicy lvl 55 white drops.
As for quality I clearly stated that I want to know if it adds value or just increases the cap.

Kind regards

Arandros

Short answer is nobody knows how it works. Mechanics have never been explained and it’s pretty hard to test. It’s all speculation.

The only thing that’s certain is the chance for increase in cap.

I always thought of it like the chat gem in d2.

A great mystery, one that I like to believe does something.

Stated previously:

The mechanics of Magic Luck has never been revealed and is hard to test because there are too many variables where ML could have helped the item... whether it be mods on it (either the number of mods, like instead of it being Magical, it maybe Rare, or if the ML affected the Mod directly ... +5% Enhanced Effect could have been affected, without ML, it may have dropped and only be +1% enhanced effect, or the Tier level.

There is one FACT about ML that we are all aware of, you have a chance of an item(s) Stats (I say mods) can exceed their Cap by 1 higher Tier.

Tier III = 60% Enhanced Effect ... using ML, you have a chance of finding a Tier III = 61-80% Enhanced Effect. This also goes with all mods including Stats like Str etc.

The Well, this has a chance of dropping (Side drops) two tiers higher than what you dropped in. You drop in a Tier III, so a Tier IV &/or Tier V can be a side drop... this is where finding and welling Tier XII (lvl 45s) in the hopes of getting a Tier XIV (lvl 55) even if your character is only level 48.

Oh, this event has a good mod for 3 days:

+100% Minimum Base Quality of Welled Item

At least you know that the item you drop in the Well, will definitely be Rare + and not Magical.
