Talk:Deflect arrows

From NWNWiki

Question: "Use of this feat requires at least one hand free. Using a two-handed weapon, such as a bow, will obviously prevent this." What about a shield in the off-hand? Thanks, Zenobia 22:46, 30 June 2006 (PDT)

As long as one hand is free, it'll work. A shield in the off-hand and nothing in the main hand will work; but, if the character is also holding a weapon in the main hand, it won't. -- Alec Usticke 06:20, 1 July 2006 (PDT)

Question: My character doesn't seem to be getting to make a reflex save while a sling is equipped, any insignt? Kkff 22:43, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Just tested this and you're correct... Deflect Arrows isn't working with a sling, even with the offhand free. Genesisth 07:10, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Request for Description Change or Clarification

I am assuming the term "missile" that is used in the description refers to physical rather than magical spell missiles. But there is a question whether there is a difference between mundane physical missiles vs. those with enchantments (eg. fire arrow, lightning bolt, ice dart, fire axe) being stopped with this feat. Incidentally, the link (for "missile") that is currently formatted on the description page refers to a non-existent page, which, if it contained information, would probably answer my question.

Has this feat been tested for the full range of "missiles"? --Iconclast 13:37, October 29, 2009 (UTC)
