Combat
Defense

Arrow Deflection is a Combat skill in The Witcher 3 Remastered in the Defense branch with 3 levels at 1 skill point each. It is a starting skill of the tree: nothing has to be learned before it. Each level also raises adrenaline gain, up to +3% at level 3. It works only while equipped in an open skill slot.

As a red skill it multiplies the bonus of a Lesser red mutagen, Red mutagen or Greater red mutagen slotted in its skill group, and fits the Strengthened Synapses slots opened by 8 mutations with red among their colours.

It leads to Cold Blood and Resolve.
