Default Re: seeking arrow

Ok, I did 10 tests of 10 Seeking Arrows cast at 10 Scouts wearing Shrouds of the Saint conferring an S9 bless (thus Twist Fate)

Thus from 100 casts 25 resulted in hits and 7 deaths. Of notice was that Calahans testing showed that 50% of scouts die but with my test only 28% of those hit died, but given I only tested the equivalent of 100 Seeking Arrows vs Calahans 300 this could account for it. The testing gave an average of 2.5 hits per round with a standard deviation of 1.08, perhaps further testing could be done to lower the error but I can't be stuffed.

Those not hit received this message:

"Suddenly an arrow appeared out of the sky and headed straight for X's heart. But for some reason X managed to escape his deadly fate and got away with only a scratch."

The take home message is that Seeking Arrow cast at a unit wearing a Saint of the Shroud conferring an S9 bless (Twist Fate) will ignore the Twist Fate effect 25% of the time.

Test save game attached, it needs the DebugMod.
