Re: Counter to flaming arrows...
 

Given that storm/mist does not put out fire arrows in flight or make it impossible to use fire arrows in real life (just highly impractical just like it affects all archery), it would be truly strange if they did in Dominions 3 if one were thinking of real life fire arrows.

Moreover, real life fire arrows are not arrows set on fire, which is what the Flaming Arrows spell does ("burst into flames as they are fired")and neither are their flames magical, like the flames of the arrows enchanted with Flaming Arrows.

In short: the Flaming Arrows spell causes all projectiles fired to burst into magical flame that doesn't consume the projectiles in flight, is capable of damaging ethereal beings, and isn't put out by damp or windy weather - and there's really no reason based on "reality" arguments or "level of detail" for why they should be put out.

if you can cast mist, you should have enough pow to cast storm and arrowfend.

Thank you, that is a consummate explanation. I had naively assumed that real-life flaming arrows would be put out, like a BBQ. But it is interesting to learn otherwise.
