Default Re: Question on Eye Shield

I tested it out with ice devils vs a risen oracle holding an eye shield and slapping a black plate helm on the ice devil dropped the eye loss from infrequently to very rarely. Buffing defense, MR, and body protection had no noticeable effect. I bet it's the fact that SCs generally have 15+ protection on their head that makes them virtually immune.

Granted, my sample set was small enough that I may be incorrect.

Default Re: Question on Eye Shield

Hmmm... strange. Why would head protection help against eyeloss? I don't have a whole lot of experience with it so you could be right. All my SCs most certainly have some sort of head protection (though usually just astral skullcaps).

I'd be curious to see a replication of the head prot test done 50 time both ways with a low MR unit just to see...
