How to get enough Luk?

So yeah I want to go back to my I/L mage but I can't seem to get enough luk to equip my reverse staff it has 40 base Luk + 22 helm, +3 glasses, +3 Mask, +2 Overall, +3 medal, +10 shoulder, +1 Angelic bless, +10 Evo ring 3, +7 evo ring 2(4th ring is the adventurer ring with 10% crit + chance of 1hit KO) +5 medal.

Anything else that Im missing that I can use to get more luk? Thanks Guys!

And I wanna avoid training a cannoneer cause getting it to lvl 70 is just.. a hassle really >.> im not rich to buy 2x so it will take me a while to lvl it up

Also can you help me out with a way to get up to 170 luk so I can get empress equips on me

GMS has bundled multiple patches together (usually when it involves Warrior, Mage, and Bowmen revamps/buffs).

@TribalEMP yes, but you can expect "good" things to eventually be taken at some point. only things KMS had that GMS didn't take when importing was Party Play Zones being removed (for all I remember). Jump became 1 Patch as well. there's no reason at all for Empress reqs not to be removed in same patch if KMS did it. there's no reason for GMS not to take the final KMSt patch if there was no previous KMS patch

@TribalEMP: nope. not MUCH later.
when Tempest first hit KMSt, only Empress still had Req. then in another Tempest patch in KMSt (still hasn't even hit KMS yet), Empress Reqs were also removed. so, when Tempest finally reached KMS, all Reqs were removed

@TribalEMP Empress reqs also get removed.
Tempest is likely to come out in ~2-3 months.
MoN! (gosh that's high Base LUK...)
Character Card Set!
Codex!
^ basically in order or efficiency

Well, if you want the LUK, train the Cannoneer (and even a Jett if you can).
It's common sense to upgrade equips, so the only thing I'm going to mention is to try upgrading you pendant to something that gives a lot of LUK (like HTPs).

There's that Maple Alliance quest, upon completion you get a beginner skill that adds +5 all-stats and such.
Upgrade Crusader's Codex.

Above: We're close, but not close enough to just wait it out and be fine. For proper use of time, I would just obtain LUK from the cheap methods, but I would invest in higher
priced options if necessary.

Seeing that it's so close to tempest I would advise you to not spend any more money on luk equips.
