Luck is a status effect that makes it more likely to receive better loot from certain loot tables in generated structures.
Effect[edit]
Adds 1 × level to attribute generic.luck
, making loot table entries with a high quality
score more likely, and entries with negative quality
less likely. It also increases the chances of bonus_rolls
occurring. Currently, only fishing uses quality
. The new weight of each entry is floor(base_weight + quality * generic.luck)
. Negative levels decrease luck.

Trivia[edit]
- The potion for Luck is unobtainable in survival without the use of cheats.
- Using a fishing rod enchanted with Luck of the Sea increases a player's
generic.luck
attribute, but doesn't actually grant the Luck status effect. - Contrary to superstition, a rabbit's foot has no effect on luck in the game.
