Lady Luck (Final Fantasy X-2)



The Lady Luck is a dressphere in Final Fantasy X-2. It is obtained in Luca either in Chapters 3 or 5 by defeating Shinra at Sphere Break. The easiest way to acquire the dressphere is to beat Shinra in Chapter 3 due to his increased difficulty in Chapter 5.

Lady Luck uses dice and Slots to attack the opponent as well as attempting to increase the amount of gil, experience, or items earned from battles.

As the name suggests, the Lady Luck dressphere excels in high Luck, aiding the player to achieve many Critical Hits. The dressphere is only above average regarding other stats but is somewhat high in strength. Lady Luck relies heavily on player skill and luck, especially when using the Reels which are the primary source of the dressphere's offense and defense. If the Reels are to fail at aligning to a correct combination, the player suffers from a Dud, which takes off 75% of the current HP regardless of the defense, though can be avoided if the player is invincible or has NulPhysical.

Etymology
It may also be a nod toward Frank Sinatra's song, "Luck Be A Lady", which talks of the singer hoping luck stays with him as he gambles.

Trivia

 * Rolling doubles on Two Dice or the same number four times on Four Dice awards the Gambler's Dream trophy in Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster. The icon is three Sevens over the Lady Luck symbol. Also, using Bribe 30 times awards the Excellent Negotiator trophy, which has falling coins for its icon.
 * It is implied that Leblanc's outfit is a Lady Luck dressphere, as the mark on her chest is a Heart, one of the four suits of a deck of cards like the Spade, Club, and Diamond on the chests of Yuna, Rikku, and Paine when they change into their dresspheres. Her fanblade is also comparable to the fan of cards used as the dressphere's weapon.

 * The Lady Luck dressphere is one of only two ways of accessing Ultima in the game. The other is through the equipping of the Megiddo Garment Grid and passing through all of its gates.
 * The Reels can easily be exploited to get any combo the player wants, in particular the CONGRATS! alignment, by simply pausing the game repeatedly. The player can wait for whatever symbol they wish to show up, and press as it is a slot away from the desired position.
 * The Reels start rotating in a random order. Therefore, it is impossible to align them in a specific order or sequence all the time unless the player repeatedly pauses the game.
 * Yuna's and Paine's cards correspond to their respective card suits (Spades and Diamonds), however, Rikku's cards are adorned with spades.
 * Some of Lady Luck's abilities have been previously used in Thief's skillsets in earlier Final Fantasy games.
 * The Lady Luck is also the name of a card-themed associated with, that appears in the Kingdom Hearts series. The Keyblade's Japanese name, "Last Resort", also appears in X-2 as a Garment Grid.
