Beginner's Luck is a community name that refers to a sliding hit chance increase for low-level characters that was added as part of [[Issue 12]]. Under Beginner's Luck, characters at [[Combat Level]] 1 have a base 90% chance to hit equal-level [[PvE]] enemies. This chance steadily decreases as the character gains levels and eventually reaches a steady 75% from Combat Level 20 onward. Prior to I12, the base chance for players to hit equal-level enemies was 75% at all levels.
+
 
+
Beginner's Luck does not apply to [[pet]]s or [[pseudopet]]s. It only helps attacks coming directly from the character.
+
 
+
Since Beginner's Luck is based on Combat Level, it is affected by [[Sidekick]]ing and Exemplaring.

According to the [[Combat Attributes]] monitor, the Beginner's Luck bonus works in full 1% increments, with occasional jumps, instead of providing fractional bonuses.
