Luck in groups, to my knowledge, was always dependant on the group leader, and only the group leader. I've never really heard otherwise.

From observation, all luck is taken into account, but apparently the JP manual says that it is based on the leader's luck and noone else.

I play solo a lot... I get maybe 1 or 2 rares every 2 or 3 runs... when I play in groups several rares drop per run... hence i observe that more rares drop when in a party, hence the observation... Though this is probably just my own bad luck lol

Nothing. Anyone who claims it takes everyones luck into consideration only pays attention when something important drops, and never the rest of the time when crap or nothing drops.

No, it is based off of the leader, this feels like the stupid beat time theory. Their will always be those few die hard believers who never listen to reason, and insist they are right.

Much like PSO, which the leader's Section ID is the game's drops, in PSU the leader's luck is the game's luck

NO ALL LUCK ISNT COMBINED, BUT I GOT A FUNNY STORY ABOUT THAT.

ONE TIME I SAW A GAME WHERE THE LEADER PLACED IN HIS PARTY COMMENT:

"ONLY PLAYERS WITH LUCK CAN ENTER. NO LUCK = BOOT".

Why do people continue to spam on this thread when it was already answered already?

The simple answer is no and Ryna or some mod should lock it.

It's definitely leader only. There's no way it can combine, otherwise everyone would have had a LOT more drops during the luck week. You can notice even when switching the leader that higher * items will begin to drop.

I have to throw out yet one more "theory" on luck and drops. After (cough) hours of playing I strongly believe luck will cycle during the same day. Yes I have been solo and seen drops alter by a huge margin in a matter of seconds.
For example Thursday AM, the end of the 3 star luck I was running solo while chatting with a friend doing the same on Plains Overlord S2. We both made the same obsrevation about how awful the drops were. I'm not talking no S rank drops, but the rares in general. 5 creatures down and one pile of cash. Block one down and not a single rare. Entire run... 5 rares including the rare board in the boss box. Yes, a [B]Scape doll!!!
After a few runs of the same result, my friend decided to work on a different charcter somewhere else. I took about a 2 hour break and came back on where I left off. (Must have Cati / Power!)
Only difference was the drops, not just the rares but the cash and the garbage were everywhere. Oh my the rares. 1st block = Merculene, Junaline, 2 Vulcaline, a Teranite, 2 Par Ebon, 1 Walna. In the first block and by myself!!! My friend who had been playing all along sent me a message asking if I had noticed a big change in the drops, I was laughing all the way to the Bank. Appearantly he had also noticed a big change.
It was nothing we did. No room deco change, no universe change, no sexy hat, just time.
Not the first time I have seen this, but now the "secret luck" factor is being closely watched. I have had similar experience while grinding, but that one is hard because of to many variables. Ever have one of those times where you had to try to break a weapon, after breaking on the second grind using an A+7 just hours before?
Please $ega, turn the luck swith on for the whole day =)
