That's a nice find regarding the Air Bless Verjigorm
Can't recall anyone mentioning it before. Probably because it's so rare that anyone takes a meaningful Air Bless.
With your permission, I will add your findings and an appropriate test game to my thread about various Seeking Arrow tests that is linked above. And of course credit you accordingly with this find.
I've posted several test games on the forum, and two useful tips I find to follow are.....
1) Try to use maps that come with the vanilla game so that everyone can access the game files you post. For example, people are unable to access the test game you've provided above because they lack the 'TestBed.rgb' map file. Which I'm guessing is a small test map you've created to quickly test stuff out (I'd imagine a lot of players have a map like this). The Silent Seas map I find to be a good small vanilla map for testing.
And try to provide any mods you've used as well, since some can be hard to track down if they go out of date (old versions of CBM for example).
2) Try to avoid making absolute claims unless your tests are incredibly intensive. For example here....

...you claim the Robe of Missile Protection offers 100% protection against Seeking Arrow. Which is not true, but it does help a lot (around 80% actually
), but it does not offer absolute 100% protection. There are not that many absolutes in Dominions, as most of the time the things you can do just affect the odds of something (elemental protection is an example of an absolute though)
Thanks again for the find. Keep up the good work as they say
