Possble to resist eye shield?

Hehe, I think I mentioned this in my Eriu guide, Sidhe can cast resist elements. Toss in a frost brand of their own and a dragon helm and grin evilly as your opponent gnashes his teeth. They can also cast resist poison and lightning (just not all in the same battle).

Yeah, the Eye Shield/Sidhe combo sucked. I even had squeezed in an S blessing for a +1 MR boost knowing woodsmen can get pwned, but still ended up with legions of blind woodsmen and skratti on my disabled roster. Until, that is, I was able to find some warmongers who would trade me brands, which were worth their weight in gems, since even a blind skratti can hit the side of a barn with a frost brand.

I meant to spill the secret after I was killed in Kingmaker, but forgot. Not the first time.

Q: Why is the Eye Shield so amazingly awesome?

A: Because to resist it, you have to pass a MR check against 12.

Q: Whaaaaaaa?

Wait, isn't that just saying that the Eye Shield has a penetration bonus of +2? That's nice, but it's nothing a little Antimagic can't handle. Am I misunderstanding your point?
