Prismatic Lacewing?

Actual effect of luck
"If the player's luck is 1.0, there's a 100% chance that the probability is doubled, leading to a final probability of 20%." This is not true. A luck value of 1.0 just means there's a 100% chance of the probability being modified; what the final probability becomes is still random. Using the given example of a 10% chance, assuming a luck value of 1.0, the probability goes from 1 in 10 to 1 in a random value between 5 and 9; this averages out to 7, meaning an average probability of approximately 14.3% (which is most certainly not 20%).

Luck on Combat
1) When a damage roll is made, is a crit roll also made? 2) Does this apply to received random damage? NoHomeLike192 168 8 1 (talk) 05:29, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Campfires...
At least some of the biome torches, and several of the other luck-affecting torches, also have campfires. Do those affect luck, or otherwise react to the biome they're placed in? --MentalMouse42 (talk) 01:19, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Nope! Campfires have absolutely no effect on luck, according to the code. Breathlessblizzard (talk) 01:35, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
