Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General Question about Lucky Charm & Bully

Hi,

There are a few things I still haven't been able to figure out about Lucky Charm and Bully... Any help would be appreciated

Questions about Lucky Charm:
1. Is Lucky Charm's item drop chance a party shared stat (ergo, the more ANYONE in your party has, the better your chances), or only the person opening containers and such needs it?
2. When I add points to Lucky Charm, I don't see any changes to Offensive Rating, unlike the description states. Is this intentional? Am I missing something?

Question about Bully:
1. Does Bully affect spell damage and / or Ranged attacks? Or only melee?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I tested Bully shortly on Beta and it didn't seem to work with spells. On the other hand, Ranger seems to come with Bully by default. Not sure if the "not on spells" bit is a bug or not though...

Don't know about Bully, but to answer your lucky charm questions;

1) Only the person opening the box.
2) It does raise offensive, just the mouseover doesn't show it. You'll notice if you add up all the values in the mouse-over, it doesn't reach the actual (correct) value displayed on the HUD.

Hi, thanks for the info on Lucky Charm!

I tested Bully today:
- Does NOT work with Spells (Tested Head Vice and Flare)
- Does work with ranged attacks
- Does work with melee.

Hope it's helpful for those building up their characters!

Well, too late for me... with my mage getting bully due to having a slow spell as well.
Oh well...

Does Bully work with expert marksman, man-at-arms, or scoundrel skills?

Since we are on the topic of Lucky Charm.. is it bugged? Because when I first got it I seemed to be getting lucky finds quite frequently... yet after that play session, the subsequent 2 play sessions have yielded zero lucky finds.. and I always use that guy to open the chests/boxes.. getting nada now

Thanks Norinth. I guess I have another talent point wasted. :-(

It seems like most of what I know about this game I've learnt trial-and-error, both mine and those who post here.

Maybe Larian should have picked another characteristic of "oldschool" games - a proper manual?

I don't think this has been mentioned (I may have missed it, though), but one point in Lucky Charm adds 3% to your hit chance.

I am not sure if 2 points adds a total of 6%, as I didn't test it that far.

Yes, it does.
