'''Luck''' [[File:Luck.png|24px]] is a statistic that affects many different aspects of the game, such as the drop rates of [[Minerals#Geodes|geodes]] and chance of getting treasure from [[Fishing]]. There are several sources of luck: daily luck determined by the game, [[buffs]] gained from eating certain [[Cooking|food]] and drink, a [[Special Charm]] which gives a small permanent luck boost, and the [[Lucky Ring]].

The base value for daily luck is a randomly generated number from -0.1 to 0.1.<ref name="luck" /> The value is increased by 0.025 with the [[Special Charm]]. Daily luck does not change if the day is restarted, but it can change by replaying the previous day.

Daily luck can be checked by right-clicking on the [[Television]] and selecting "Fortune Teller." The Fortune Teller will give an indication of the daily luck stat modifier. Luck is not affected by viewing the Fortune Teller Television Program (''i.e.,'' the luck value is not neutral if the player does not view the program, the luck value remains constant regardless.)

==Luck Buffs==
 
==Luck Buffs==
In addition to Daily Luck, Luck Buffs gained from eating [[Cooking|food]] will provide temporary bonuses.  Any luck buff is treated separately from daily luck, so the effects of the two types of luck are not automatically the same; both the types of events affected by luck buffs and the magnitude of the effect can be different. Only one drink-derived buff and one food-derived buff can be active at a given time.

Luck Buffs are temporary bonuses gained from consuming certain [[Cooking|food and drink]] or by wearing the [[Lucky Ring]]. Only one drink-derived buff and one food-derived buff can be active at a given time.
 
  −
Known differences between daily luck and luck buffs include:
  −
* The drop chances of [[Duck Feather]] and [[Rabbit's Foot]] are not improved by luck buffs.
  −
* For [[Fishing#Treasure Chests|Fishing Treasure Chest]] contents, a luck buff does not improve special item chances.  Instead, it increases the chance of getting double quantities of resources and gems.  It also allows standard rings ([[Glow Ring]], [[Magnet Ring]]) to appear in place of small rings ([[Small Glow Ring]], [[Small Magnet Ring]]).
  −
* When breaking stone, chances for extra [[Cinder Shard|Cinder Shards]], [[Bone Fragment|Bone Fragments]], [[Clay]], [[Stone]], and all [[Ore]] depend on the player's [[Mining]] level and luck buffs, but not daily luck<ref name="breakStone" />.
  −
* The player's [[Crit. Chance]] is boosted by luck buffs but not daily luck<ref name="damagemonster" />.
  −
* The player's chances of activating the [[Ring of Yoba]]<ref name="farmer_takedamage"/> or [[Warrior Ring]]<ref name="ring_onmonsterslay"/> are boosted by luck buffs but not daily luck.
  −
* The player's chances of finding certain modified monster drops, including [[Mahogany Seed]], [[Galaxy Soul]], and [[Qi Gem]] depend on luck buffs but not daily luck<ref name="monsterdrop"/>.
