I already found two types of luck items i think. A cloak and a ring. One gave me 5 luck the other a plus 1! But NONE increased bonus stats like magical resistance! what's the purpose of them?

Luck gives you a small chance of not dying from an attack that would normally kill you.

You don't think something that prevents you from dying is powerful?

Derived characteristics are untouched by item-gained stats. For instance, a priest wearing BS's antimagic necklace still has high rune reading.

Honestly, it's basically +10% Lifesaver with other added bonuses. If you think that cheating death ain't as good as elemental resistance... :P

Can we all agree that large explosions targeted at the enemies are way, way better than even NEEDING Lifesaver?

Large Explosions? Where do you get those? If effective they are much better but when the offense breaks down, a good defense is a good thing. I just prefer not ever losing enough HP to even be near to death.

Fireblast is a large enough explosion for me.

Or Arcane Blow.
