Ranged Shield Damage

[Ruvanal]

Winterfall Pathfinders are unusual in that if attacked at range they will return bow fire and never move to melee distance.  For this reason they make good target practice.  Over the last week or two Fafner skilled up her bows and crossbows to 300.  In the course of this she noticed that the hapless distant furbolg was often impaled upon her Thorium Shield spike.  Indeed, every time the Pathfinder's shoot was blocked.

Fafner has pretty average length arms for a girl gnome, and she does not understand how this is happening.

From the 1.9 patch notes:
# Shield Spikes - Shield Spike damage will no longer occur on ranged blocks.
