Now, I think an important factor is the fact that the original spell only lasts 10min/level. Which means almost 3 hours if you are 20th level, or "short" duration for a buff.Next consider the power, day and night you have a rather high DR to arrows. I would definitely rule that once your protection has sustained 100pts of damage the spell fades away. If you dont get hit by arrows very much, it may last years. Seems like a good thing to throw on a villain, one less spell he'll have to worry about casting before a fight.Think about this. If your dm allowed you to cast permanency on a Stone Skin spell, would you do it? Pretty good DR, same duration as prot from arrows. Both would save you a potential spell slot every day (and in stoneskins case, the material component). I can see many benefits of doing it, and I can easily see the broken-ness of letting these spells last longer than they say they do. Nothing in permanency indicates it extends spells beyond what they give in the description, except for an unlimited duration. Seems like an easy choice, it goes away.Technik</blockquote>
