I don't think that it protects against spells, and if it does, then that is definetly a bug.

My HoF Strategos with 13 HP and 21 armor (iron skin) was just taken down by a single shortbow arrow.... to -7 HP!

Good Luck is good. Bad Luck is... surprisingly common.

What is that...a 3-4 sigma event? Oy.

I was under the impression that it was the same as the spell personal luck. The description of the spell includes the phrase 'blows or magic'.

I was also under that impression; hard to test when something misses because of luck; but I believe DeathDaemon is right, at least according to the item/spell description.

Luck protects against damage dealing spells as well as normal attacks. However it does not offer any protection against instakill spells like soul slay.

These are good items to have and easy to get in the early game. I like to send my commanders in to melee and an item like this really tips the odds in his favor.
