Curse and luck are orthogonal.

Luck gives 50% chance of escaping HP damage.

Curse gives you a higher chance of an affliction if you're wounded.

They don't cancel each other out.

Yes, well maybe with two lucky pendants you would have a 50% of activating the lucky effect on the second pendant! That would be awesome!

That doesn't work either, because being lucky is a per unit flag. A unit either has it, or doesn't.

You don't need two lucky pendants to have two separate sources of luck. The lucky pendant and shield can be used together. They're different items so you wouldn't even need sone multiple slot trick....

But as Endoperez says, luck is a unit flag and is either on or off. You can no more have 'double luck' than you can have 'double flight'.

The most obvious effect to me of this situation where duplicate items don't take effect is with bags of wine. IIRC having two on one commander only gives the effect of one. If you have two different items that give the supply bonus both work though.

Isn't faithful a lucky sword?

Lucky pendant
Lucky shield
Lucky sword

Yep, three times blessed. Add in the third slot and four times blessed. So that would be 6 1/4% chance that a hit would do damage. No one could hit you.

Would it help you last longer against the doom horror's unluck attack?

That's what he was saying. As for the question of multiple luck sources, no, having multiple sources has absolutely no effect on the "curse luck" special attack of doom horrors.
