What it does is when the target is successfully hit, they will be automatically hit by the Heart Finding effect (another weapon) which will kill anything that fails an MR save unless the target is lifeless, in which case it's not affected by Heart Finding.

Thanks guys.

What about things like the Eye Shield, which say the attacker "might" lose an eye? Is that an MR roll, or just a probability or what?

There's probably a MR roll and/or the need to parry an attack, but the effect is your opponents gaining the "blind" afflication when they attack you.

I think there is no MR roll, but might be wrong, since I can't remember where my idea that MR doesn't help came from.

There's an MR roll for Heart Finding. It isn't specified in the Heart Finder Sword weapon, but it IS specified in the Heart Finding weapon, which is damage death, MR negates.

The eye shield has the weapon effect Eyeloss, which may or may not allow MR rolls. I'll find out for the DB, though.

I was talking about the Eye Shield. I seem to remember that it's a useful anti-SC item, which would be true only if it is not effected by MR.

Ah. It probably isn't then, but will likely poke out just one eye per retaliation. Most creatures only have two, so they'll be blind in short order.

Last time I used the shield with a SC, I had soon him surrondered by blinds peaple, but I don't remind that there were some with only one eye missing.

I think that the shield directly go for the "blind" affliction, whatever the number of eyes
