250 daggers with a Telekinesis spell?

Except that it only stops the first 10 points per level. That's a lot, but the Telekinesis spell might still do a boatload.

Plus, a lot of the daggers might miss and still be in range for a second TK spell.

Heh. Hadn't thought of that. Oh, well - it was late and I was tired. Sorry about the confusion!

Although protection from arrows and it's sister spell reverse arrows can not stop all the damage, they can mitigate some of it, and reverse arrows, would be just mean, sure some damage still gets to you, but you get to reflect some of those arrows/daggers/shuriken/whatever back at the mage.
