I think most of the forum troll guild has long since grown bored or been banned, it might work !
You forgot me.
I also have one: Does luck increase my artifact drop chance in the gauntlet or not? According to uoguide, the chance raises by killing monsters, so the more monsters you kill, the higher is your chance... it doesn't mention luck though. :S
Currently, we don't have the "gauntlet points system," which is probably what you read about: THAT system very much resembles the "Treasures of Tokuno" points system.
Instead, we just have a roll similar as it is for champion artifacts: when a boss dies, it makes a single, randomized roll. That roll *IS* improved (up to a little over a 50% increase) by the luck of the top-damage-dealer. (which is usually an archer with zero luck anyway, or at most 1-300 from perfection that they expected to get +1000 on but failed)
When a boss gives an artifact, it only ever gives ONE, and it's given 100% randomly to anyone who got loot rights: someone who did 90% will have the same chance as the other one who did 10%.
IIRC, even with the points system, luck will still matter, but this time it will always be YOUR luck: it should (like it did for ToTs) increase the points you get.
