Essential Material: Amulet of Arrow Protection
🕑 Added 2018-08-17 14:02:33 +0000 UTC Amulet of Arrow Protection [Term]A golden amulet. A simple charm made of gold, lacking in any complex designs or ostentatious ornamentation. Small and innocuous, it could be mistaken for an ordinary piece of jewelry.
In spite of its unassuming appearance, however, it is a powerful magical artifact, endowing the wearer with an absolute protection against arrows, projectile weapons. Even if it comes from an unexpected angle, even if it is launched from afar, even if it is fired with expert precision or high attack power, if it is a weapon that attacks by traveling through the air to strike the target, this amulet will protect its wearer without fail.
However, if it is something like a missile that explodes on impact or otherwise a weapon with a wide-range, area of effect type of attack, then this amulet is useless. Because it is designed to protect a single target from ranged attacks, fundamentally, the attacks it protects from are those designed to defeat a single target. Anything that is meant to deal damage over a broad area will naturally surpass it.
Of note, Taylor Hebert’s version of this amulet is more ornamented than the other versions. Though it naturally performs better, this is a result of the greater time and effort invested in its creation, not the quality of its appearance.
