Misfortune is quite expensive for what it is worth, since the luck can not be negative. The original manual refers to negative luck, and there is even a sound reserved for it, but no "bad luck" can occur in the game. In theory, if the bad luck would be possible, misfortune could have tremendous consquenses affecting the damage of the enemy.

Very expensive for no obvious result, as negative luck carries no penalty, and decreasing the chance of enemy luck bonuses by a mere 10% is rather feeble for a 3rd level spell. (It is stated in the game that negative luck will sometimes give half damage, but this is not yet proven, and even with -3 luck I have seen nothing significant happen.)

__NOTOC__
Confirmed by [[User:Cid SilverWing|Cid SilverWing]], there is no such thing as "half damage" through Bad Luck in H3. I spammed -3 luck from Events in my test map and not a single unit suffered Bad Luck when attacking (and I played over 5 minutes in one battle).

Comments & debate

Misfortune is quite expensive for what it is worth, since the luck can not be negative. The original manual refers to negative luck, and there is even a sound reserved for it, but no "bad luck" can occur in the game. In theory, if the bad luck would be possible, misfortune could have tremendous consquenses affecting the damage of the enemy.
