Author+1 Luck how much is that???
What is the effect of this amount of increase?

How often do you get critical/lucky hits from +1 luck?

Is there a lucky defence too?
• Luck
The greater this parameter is, the more probable it is to deal double damage to the opponent with physical attacks. Luck shouldn't be negative, or else the damage might become twice lower. Luck can befall any creature in combat.

There is no Luck-defence.

With +1 Luck you deal double-damage fairly seldom. I don't have any exact numbers though.
Every luck point increases chance of double damage by 10%:

-2 Luck = 20% chance to do half damage
-1 Luck = 10% chance to do half damage
1 Luck = 10% chance to do double damage
2 Luck = 20% chance to do double damage
3 Luck = 30% chance to do double damage
etc.
You forgot luck can go to -4
Critical hits depend on Elf skill level:
http://www.heroeswm.com/help.php?section=38

Formula:
Chance to do critical hit = 5% + 4% * (Elf skill level)

So,
5% at Elf skill level 0
9% at Elf skill level 1
13% at Elf skill level 2
17% at Elf skill level 3
21% at Elf skill level 4
25% at Elf skill level 5
etc.
basically it means how much damage you'll take or deal

That is not about luck that is favoured enemy, the most powerful racial skill... that lets it have a chance to do double against selected enemies.

And yes it does stack with luck
thats what makes elves dangerous =)
but... if a wizard does 200% damage with favoured enemy...

will he deal 300% or 400% when both luck and favoured enemy activate?
for Wumzuk:
if a wizard does 200% damage with favoured enemy... Do you mean elf?)

will he deal 300% or 400% when both luck and favoured enemy activate? 300%
no
Eh... Yes. What Aravil said is true. Stop confusing people Vincent.
for icecool:
That is not about luck that is favoured enemy

The original question was
How often do you get critical/lucky hits from +1 luck?

So, I also answered about critical hits.
Actually I'm not sure about exact formula for Luck.
The text here
http://www.heroeswm.com/help.php?section=35
is realy not clear:
"For example, while luck is equal to 1, its befalling on the battlefield is limited to once in 5 turns through once in 20 turns." - I dont understand what does this mean (please update it).

But I think that in this game Luck works in the same way as it worked in Heroes of Might and Magic game.
