I am not even sure it is a "real" arrow at all (I mean: treated like a real battle sequence).

I think there are only 3 outcomes to this event:
(I may be wrong)

1. You die
2. You survive, but got an ugly chestwound
3. You manage to survive the incident without a scratch

There seems to be some consensus that missile protection helps; I am unsure about luck, and about armor, however. I cant seem to see a difference. I think the mechanics of the event are not too clear. Maybe I am wrong though.
