Wizards get that at lvl3, it's called Protection from Arrows!

Personally, I think they should have just made it a straight +4 to AC vs missiles, and be done with it. Dodging, parrying and blocking are all subsumed into AC anyway, and I don't see why "deflecting an arrow" should be any different. And get rid of the IUS prereq too; this sort of stunt is appropriate for all kinds of warrior types, not just chop-socky monks.

Hmmm... a +2 against ranged attacks even wouldn't have been tooo bad IMHO
Would have gotten rid of the discussions if a monk with strength 28 can swat a headsized rock away or not.
