The function of new luck isn't about chaining skills.  It's a mimicry skill.

Whereas only skills that are meant to be tied into multiple attacks "Feint - Disarm" for example state so.

Luck is a replacement skill.

You have a purchase of Luck, and when you use it, it becomes the skill you call with it.  For instance

Luck - Willpower.  It's one skill, not being tied to any other skill.

Chris is correct.  "Luck - Achilles Strike" is not two different skills, the Luck is simply acting as the Achilles Strike.

Why does Luck still have the Defense trait?  Wouldn't its traits depend upon the skill it imitates?

According to the wording of this skill, Luck could be used to replicate continuous skills such as 1-handed edged/blunt weapon, Rank 1 physician abilities, or Forgery Prof.  Is this intended?

The intent behind the skill is periodic/Per Event skills only.

Actually considering that it mimics a skill and Luck is within itself an Event Based skill, it cannot be used to mimic a Continuous Skill.  The "Event Based" function of the skill does not alter when you call your Luck - "x"

Achilles Strike
Assail
Athletic Feat
Basic Entry/Escape
Basic Disguise
Body Shot
Break Limb
Climb
Critical Backstab
Detect Traps
Disarm Traps
Dodge
Escape Restraints
Flee
Forgery / Detect Forgery
Hide in Shadows
Inflict Pain
Nail
Pick Basic Locks
Pick Pockets
Quick Bind
Refresh Disguise
Second Chance
Set Traps
Smuggling
Stunning Blow
Subdue
Trip
Waylay
Willpower
Yado

Unless I am mistaken, this is the list of things possible to use the Luck Mimicry with.  These are the list of things as far as I see that fit into the parameters and intent of the skill.
