Re: seeking arrow
Thinking about this....
Its interesting that the Robe of Missile Protection seems to give a 90% chance to avoid being hit and not 80% as it should.
From the no protection and two shielded tests roughly 150 die, which says that 50% will die and 50% survive. Thus with the Robe of Missile Protection with 14 dieing we can conclude that roughly 30 scouts were hit. As 30 is 10% of 300 therefor the 90% protection.
I wonder how statistically robust 300 test are (sounds pretty good) and do we have some abnormal but possible result?
Interesting...

Re: seeking arrow
The Markata has TF, not the giant. Just checked and the Markata has no shield.
I had trouble logging in here so I put my next test here.
Unfortunately that forum wouldn't let me upload so here is the file for that test.

Re: seeking arrow
Thanks all.. Was always curious as to whether twist fate "reconciled" a hit in the ritual hase. Good to know it does.

Re: seeking arrow
Just tested Seeking Arrow vs Ethereal (Black Servants).
100% of Seeking Arrows hit out of a sample size of 10.
Ethereal offers no protection.

Re: seeking arrow
Yes, I understand that it was the markata with twist fate. However, I said parry instead of what I actually meant, repel. In any case it looks like calahan mentioned that the damage was from repel and strange 1 damage results on the other forum anyway, so my comment is a bit unnecessary now :P I have noticed many times in playing that a result of 1 damage would not pop twist fate, but I've always attributed this to being a special factor of either the repel mechanic or poison, which are the two most obvious ways you'll see 1 damage being done to a given unit.

Re: seeking arrow
one wonders if our good friend Flavor might have been better off being shot, though...

Re: seeking arrow
That is one of my go-to items, the clock of missile protection.
