Lucky
3 builds
Another efficient, low-tier Luck boost that Lucky turns into extra damage, crates and rare items, with a negligible downside in most ranged or melee builds.
Generalist
2 builds
Lost Duck provides early luck to find more Ghost weapons and powerful hybrid items. Generalist does not rely on elemental damage, so the downside is almost free.
Hunter
2 builds
With no Harvesting, Hunter benefits more from Luck-based drops. Lost Duck provides cheap early Luck with no downside for a pure ranged build, slightly improving income and item quality.
King
1 build
Lost Duck adds even more Luck to King’s already high baseline, improving the odds of rolling tier IV weapons and items while having almost no downside in non‑elemental builds.
Sailor
1 build
Lost Duck gives cheap Luck to improve shop quality and crate drops, which is valuable in early Anchored Sailor runs where you need good cursed items and naval upgrades despite lacking Harvesting.
Cryptid
1 build
Simple and efficient luck early on to fuel crate generation and better shop rolls, with a negligible downside for non-elemental Cryptid builds.
