You typically build luck by backstabbing, charging, ambush, etc. Specialty attacks to open combat. Now, the landing the lucky blow as you flee could be one of the affected areas. What I've heard is a bit different. Let's say, you've been building your luck all day. You find that mage/assassin you've been looking for all day. Ambush/bs/pincer, you land a lucky blow doing so. As I understand it, the lucky blow will go through sanc/shield/stone skin whatever. So the damage is near what it would be normally through their special protections. So, if you would normally do an oblit with your ambush. It will still do an oblt when you land a lucky blow on a protected individual. Hope that makes sense.
