What is luck in Hard West 2?
Simply put, luck is a stat that makes your characters more likely to hit enemies. Luck has a point value in the game which determines how much of an increase your hit chance gets when you activate it. The higher your luck points when you activate the ability, the more likely you are to hit your target.
You can activate your luck ability by pressing the button on the left side of the action bar. This button has a horseshoe symbol on it. If you don’t feel like using luck at the current time, you can press the button again to turn it off.
