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).
