This week, we've overhauled one of RuneScape's most venerable systems – luck.

there were once but a few ways of manipulating your combat and skilling fortunes, now there are more – tailored for various phases of your RuneScape adventure.

Since the Game Jam, Mod Timbo's worked tirelessly to gather your feedback and put together the rework released today. Read on for full details.

How Does Luck Work?

Luck is a hidden stat that affects your chance of benefiting :

Rare drops Slayer

Unique drops bosses

Clue-specific rewards clue scrolls

Favourable skilling procs (see below)

Accessing the rare (now granting an additional drop, not a replacement)

Luck-enhancing items now fall on one of four tiers. Tiers 1-3 affect content specific to certain level ranges. Tier 4 affects content of all levels, along with some extra benefits of its own.
