Altering the luck stat help

[longlivejuggs]

Id like to change the luck stat to be used in damage formulas under the name of a different stat. The only problem is I remember reading somewhere that luck effects different stats, like heal amounts and buff/debuff resists.
So im wondering how I would remove all the hidden bonuses associated with the luck stat so that I can use the luck stat for other purposes?

With default MV luck only slightly affects the application of states I think, and it's such a small amount that no one would really even notice. Other than that, I don't believe there are any other uses for the luck stat in MV, hidden or otherwise.

A property called "lukEffectRate" is used by MV automatically that uses the caster's and target's LUK to slightly modify the chance of applying states to foes:

Game_Action.prototype.lukEffectRate = function(target) {
return Math.max(1.0 + (this.subject().luk - target.luk) * 0.001, 0.0);
};

The good news is that if you modify this method to simply return 1.0, you effectively remove the effects of LUK from everything in the game, except wherever you choose to use it in your damage formulas, of course! Either modify this method in rpg_objects.js, or simply paste it into your own mini-plugin and turn that mini-plugin ON in your plugin editor:

Game_Action.prototype.lukEffectRate = function(target) {
return 1.0;
};
