    Its your 'Luck'
    The more flashy the better it is!

    The 'N' looking Luck is 1
    The Circle one is 2
    And the big flashy one is 3

    The higher your luck the higher chance there is of getting the enemies to drop items/weapons/armor etc

    Still have my doubts about whether or not it effects drops...the biggest contribution luck has is your success rate with grinding weapons. The higher your luck, the better your odds are of a successful grind.

    The effects of Photon Fortune include:
    * Slightly increases success rate when grinding weapons
    * Increases enemy drop rate

    Photon Fortune will not affect:
    * Quality of drops
    * Chance for super-rare items (such as S-rank weapon boards) to drop
    * Item drops from boss boxes
    * Synthing success rate or attribute percentage
    * Rare spawn appearance rate
    * Casino Voloyal slot machine odds
    * Special drops such as Gugg Crown or Gaozoran Rod

    Oh yes, forgot about grinding!

    I used to think the same! Until I read psupedia. And as YTownNateDogg said,
    Luck does not affect 'the rarity of the enemy drop', but does effect 'if something at all' will drop.
