The Bard's Song of Luck improves the overall luck of a bard by giving an increased chance of success at performing certain actions, such as maneuvers. The spell does not always increase the luck of the bard and her party; however, increased training in Bard Spellsongs increases the chances that this spell will take effect.

Instead of outright raising the chance for an event to occur (or not occur), the spell will grant a second roll. The higher of the two rolls will be the one factored into the event.

Mana cost: 6, +1 for every 4 Bard spellsongs known

Renewal Cost

Half of the base Mana Point (MP) cost

Explanation of Mechanical Benefit

It can vary from system to system, but generally (such as with the standard maneuver roll), Bards have a base 50% chance + 1% per 3 spellsongs while non-Bards have a flat 33% chance for a reroll.
