Magic shield effects

[Psycho]

A lot of misinformation in this thread. Let me try to clarify:
- Eye shield's effect is MR negating
- Vine shield's effect is MR negating
- Both effects are checked for each melee attacker on the target
- Both effects are checked before hit (so entanglement from vine shield prevents the hit to occur and losing the second eye from eye shield pretty much also prevents the hit to occur)

You've added a lot too. It's too bad that the other people who would be able to correct you don't bother posting here anymore.

- Eye shield's effect is MR negating

Correct.

- Vine shield's effect is MR negating

Incorrect, and obvious if you've ever used it against something with high MR. It affects even the elemental royalty every single time they attack. It affects every single unit that attacks, which is improbable even with MR 10 attackers.

Correct.

- Both effects are checked before hit (so entanglement from vine shield prevents the hit to occur and losing the second eye from eye shield pretty much also prevents the hit to occur)

Absolutely incorrect. Units with a vine shield are clearly damaged by units that are also entangled that turn.
