It doesn't even show up in the stats menu but the cards have it listed as a stat. Some charms and treasures provide a boost... but what does this stat even do and does everyone have the same amount since it's not listed anywhere?

The stats on the cards have nothing to do with the game they are probably there so people can play games like Top Trumps with them

The stats on the cards used to ( if not still? ) mean something. They give the stats to each characters attributes. If I'm not mistaken, Luck, used to be factored into critical hit chance (among other things, ie: chance money drops etc).

I understand the stats on the card are kinda meaningless and stats in SSA/Giants don't necessarily function the same in Swap Force (Armor, Crit, etc.), but Luck seems to actually be an in-game stat because there are items that boost it.

So I guess we don't know for sure what it does?

I was actually curious about this as well since there are some legendary treasures that provide luck, so luck is indeed in the game.

I'd have said it adds to critical chance... except there are treasures that add to Critical Chance and treasures that add to luck, implying that they are different.

They're yellow Charms so it's probably got something to do with money or experience. Dunno what though.

If for any reason you're not completely satisfied, I hate you.

Hmm, that's actually a really good point. Maybe an increased chance at having a bigger drop of money? Now that you mention it, I wanna say that at some point I heard something about Luck increasing chance for food to drop from enemies. Not entirely sure about that though.

How is it any different than the Critical stat? Improving Luck via items does not increase the Crit stat. The Crit stat in Swap Force is pretty straight forward, so I don't understand how Luck would figure in to it.

I wonder if it's related to chance to get clocks/multipliers in the score/timed modes?

Could be. Maybe it's just an overall increased drop chance for everything. If that's true, would be worthwhile for Time Attack mode.

Like I mentioned earlier, to my knowledge, It was used for mainly for critical hit chance but, also for chance to drop food, money, and experience among other things.

I think that is what's it's been reduced to. However, you can't overlook the chance that it might play a small role in crits even if it's not listed in the stats, because you know...it's 'luck' and not a sure thing. Just my two cents. smilie
