Sorry, now i understand what Twoback23 referred to - earlier I mentioned thaat "the effect of 10 points more in luck is like 2 points more in each skill". Well, possibly but it's not so easy to notice as the difference isn't that great. And the skills don't actually raise, but I understood that the effect of luck is like having more skills even though it won't show in your stat screen.

Perhaps this could be tested though... With certain security skill and certain type of lockpick it is only possible to pick locks up to certain number - if skill+lockpick combination is too low you'll get "lock too complex" notification. OK, one could test raising luck (with spell/enchanted item) and see if better luck makes it possible to pick that kind of lock.
