• Prerequisite: Dexterity 13+, Shield Parry, Shield Proficiency .
• Benefit: Once per round, when you would normally be hit with a ranged weapon, you may make a Reflex saving throw against a DC of 20 (if the ranged weapon has a magical bonus to attack the DC increases by that amount). A magic shield does not reduce the DC of your reflex save. If you succeed in the saving throw, you have managed to deflect the weapon. You must be aware of the attack and not be flat-footed at the time.
• Attempting to deflect a ranged weapon does not count as an action. Exceptional ranged weapons cannot be deflected.
• Special: bucklers and tower shields cannot be used to deflect ranged attacks.
