Since all luck items in vanilla ''NetHack'' are [[quest artifact]]s, the ability to obtain a luck item can render the guaranteed luckstone within [[Mines' End]] redundant; such characters may elect to postpone their trip to the [[Gnomish Mines]] in favor of [[Sokoban]], for example, or else will choose not to proceed beyond [[Minetown]]. On the other hand, players may want a luckstone to tide them over until they obtain their luck item.

As with luckstones, there is little tangible benefit to carrying multiple luck items outside of a container; with non-negative base Luck, blessing is not strictly necessary in terms of luck timeout, except to prevent the luck item becoming cursed. However, luck items are often preferred over luckstones due to the other benefits from their [[base item]]s, and as quest artifacts they are also [[intelligent]] and will resist the [[curse items]] spell 80% of the time, making blessing them an unambiguous boon.
