Is there a way to increase the number of times per round you can use the feat Deflect Arrow?
Preferably without Mythic Powers/Feats.
Also could you purposely let yourself be hit by a ranged attack so that you can deflect it?

just curious, why do you want to allow yourself to be hit just so that you can deflect it?
(Also for the record I'm fairly sure you can choose not to use your dex/dodge bonus against an attack, but you can't just automatically let yourself be auto-hit - They still have to roll to hit the broad-side of a barn)

To my knowledge the max that you can deflect is a turn, without mythic that is, is 2. You can deflect one with deflect arrows and a second with cut from the air. But that is a lot for feats to pull this off, as a non fighter you need 4: Deflect arrows, Power Attack, Martial Focus, and cut from the air.

Long story short I have a combo involving Startoss Comet to bounce a Starknife or some other thrown weapon off my enemy hit me, then deflect it back at them. Giving me still time to move, and later on poison the weapon once before hand.
On side note if you hit a person but they deflect can you still hit them again with Startoss Comet?
If not I still have ways...

Deflect Arrows says:
when you would normally be hit with an attack from a ranged weapon, you may deflect it so that you take no damage from it
So, it looks like the target is hit but takes no damage, and Startoss Comet says If you hit..., but I could see some people deciding it needs to be "hit & cause damage"
I'm not sure how you'd get your weapon to go back at your target though, Deflect Arrows doesn't let you redirect the attack

Due to how targeting works with Startoss Comet, I thought it would mean I deflect at were it was fired from meaning at the creature/thing it is ricocheting off of.
Also looks like I will need a projectile magnet of sorts, so that I can target an Ally next to and Snatch it then.
