No one wants that. I want at least a chance of dying and at least a chance of winning for each class I fight.

Realism? Then why can a ranger in chainmail armor run as fast as a disciple without armor?

Anyway this is a bug as ShieldReflect should reflect all damage. If you want an explaination WHY they can throw arrow damage back at the rangers, one word: Magic.
I brought it up in reference to arrows hitting armor far away and how that shouldn't reflect back, not about sprinting...

Arrow damage is clunky against things like this. Ex: it's not buffed by Might.

I like how this thread forces us to consider the match-up of Paladin vs Ranger (as well as other arrow specs). There aren't many match-ups in herocraft I would call almost impossible to win, but that is one of them. I have beaten a paladin once in a skirmish, it is very difficult.

+1 to fix the bug, realism be damned pallys r magical.

I have never beaten a max paladin in skirmish, and beastrecon is the #1 ranked skirmish player. He lags horribly but his heals plus his shield reflect are a game changer
