magic find
MF does not affect the forge.
You can get more magic find by salvaging green and blue quality items, salvaging globs of ectoplasm (but this is a pretty pricey way to go about it), certain daily log-in rewards, and getting achievement points to earn you achievement chests.
- Put in custom buy offers for Trick or Treat Bags or Giant Wintersday Gifts .
- Open them.
- Sell everything you get on the TP (ideally close to the lowest sell offers).
Overall, you end up losing money this way (unless you are extraordinarily lucky). However, you’ll also grow your luck substantially.
(It’s best to do this on a character with tons of empty inventory slots — both bags drop a lot of variety of things.)
You will end up with some valueless items (notably recipes) as well as some account bound ones. Save or delete those, as fits your inventory management style. (I recommend deleting.)

OP what level are you?
If you are level 80, jump into Silverwastes and do the event, as well as the hidden depths event. This will net you lots of gear bags (3 blue/green items) as well as a bunch of rares and other salvageable goods. Salvage EVERYTHING. Including the rares, and then salvage the ectos. Just salvaging all the greens and blues that I get I can get about 2000 luck per run. Upgrade all the essences of luck via artificer (lvl 0). It’ll save your mouse.
It would also be beneficial to invest in a copper fed salvage-o-matic. Frees up a ton of inventory space, and is much cheaper per salvage than the basic kits.

Also good advice.
(Except for kitteneapering — not sure what it is, but I think it’s illegal in 22 of these United States, the European Union, and New Zealand).
Silverwastes farming will generate additional revenue for you, in addition to all the luck. (Plus, while you are there, it will boost your Magic Find temporarily.) Bonus tip: save the gear and champ bags so you can open them on an L53 character (the mats that will drop from salvaging are worth substantially more at that level).

salvaging Globs of Ectoplasm will yield stupid amounts of Essense of Luck. You will get hundreds, quickly, and a lot of Crystalline Dust.
the downside of course, is you are salvaging Ecto.
you are also just hitting the point where it starts to take a lot more luck to get higher magic find numbers. check out the chart.

My question is, that can i do with luck after i got 300%?

Nothing. (There are a tiny number of crafting/forging uses; in general, it will just take up space in your inventory, which is among the reasons I’m not bothering to max it out.)

I wish that they would allow us to throw a full stack of exotic luck into the forge in order to guarantee a Mystic Forge Promotion (rare to exotic, for example), or to guarantee a Named exotic (if using 3 exotics).
