Guild Wars 2 has a variety of different game-specific mechanics. One of the most confusing ones that new players come across is called Luck. Luck is obtained both from the daily login reward or from salvaging equipment. In this guide we’ll show you what different kinds of Luck you can obtain, as well as their uses.
Luck TypesLuck comes in what is called Essences of Luck and there are four different types. They start at the Fine Rarity and the highest level is Legendary. Each of these different types gives a different amount of Luck:
Fine = 10 LuckMasterwork = 50 LuckRare = 100 LuckExotic = 200 LuckLegendary = 500 LuckAll the tiers from Masterwork and up can be combined into higher tiers by an Artificer at the Artificing Station, all except for Legendary Essences.
