Tested quickly with Gandalf Parker's Mini map. Results were conclusive: When repelling, no magic effects take place, not even poisoning, regardless the hint in the manual.

Tested with:
Wine Whip
Rat tail
Fire brand
Lighning spear
Thorn spear

Wielded on a black lord (or Raterik) with lead shield (to get def down), burning pearl and a girdle of might, tested against hordes of harpies. Several succesful repels that caused only 1 point of damage were seen for each of the weapons.

Just to be sure, also tested on Vanheim Vanir with fire 9, still no effects.

Great, thank you for clarification Tuna-fish. I expected that much but wasn't 100% sure, so it's good to know.

What about my question (read below) about different shields and what triggers them(any attack, or attack that lands, or attack that lands _and_ cause damage), and what saves aginst them? Aslo is there a firmula on how fast target can break free from vines? I know it's supposed to be related to strength somehow, but don;t know the details.
