so... it's now another false choice that does nothing, apparently? Huh.
Not exactly. There are 3 possible outcomes in that scene. Doesn't seem as a false choice to me.

Okay, so, there are a number of reasons why that simply cannot work, mechanically...
There are guardian statues in the Grove's tunnel, a very good example of a solid low damage. Regardless, I am just a humble user, all those technical explanations are utterly lost on me. I don't know how it all works, nor will I pretend to care. I just point out something that doesn't make sense to me and it is up to the creators to deal with it or not.

...('Hit' standard language – the literal arrow physically connected with the target; it hit it)...
You seem to be confusing language barrier with stupidity. If we were talking face to face, I fear you would be speaking veeeeery sloooowly to me right now. XD
When I say that the arrow didn't hit the target, I mean it missed the target, it passed by the target, made no impact on the target by failing to connect with the target. =P
My vocabulary may be poor and my grammar leaks on occasion but I know the definition of the words I use =)

Goblins: I have to ask – what 'general goblin concept'? Whose 'general goblin concept'? Because here, we're talking about goblins as defined and described in the forgotten realms setting and lore as written by WotC
I see, well I stand corrected then, for I did not read The Forgotten Realms written by WotC. You're right, their lifestyle within the game does not reflect their level of intelligence. Living covered in shit and bones does not make you stupid, you're just yet to realize the importance of hygiene, and they even have the scribes... You know, there is a video on YouTube where a chimpanzee shoots AK-47 and quite effectively actually, I think it shut a camera man, though I can't be certain, he could just drop the camera and ran...

I was right about you and that goblin in the Grove, wasn't I? You called that thing a "person"? =) What a softy...

No sorceress in game yet – coming, supposedly. Just to be clear, regarding wizards; it's not just my personal opinion on how to interpret them – I don't want to seem like I'm talking hot air on the matter. That's just the functional lore for magic users in the forgotten realms
I figured as much, no worries. And I should get to know the lore better. However, in my humble opinion, it should be up to the game to introduce its lore to the player in an adequate and fulfilling way without additional readings. Feel free to disagree =)

Paladins: I feel saying 'this particular soul' is not a correction on 'any soul she tells them to'. If Zariel had directed them to a thug in Neverwinter, they'd have done it.
Perhaps, but it doesn't matter. The dialogue clearly states that it is her soul or theirs.

To be clear, I don't side with anyone, to me, there isn't the right side, I just do whatever makes sense to me. The main point stands - they really need to fix that quest by removing idiotic, irrelevant dialogue options and clarifying the gnoll issue.

(Dear Havens, not the freaking goblins...)
Hm.. I love sabre and it's the fastest of them all, you would be like a lightening bug with it. But if you don't care for it, it can't be helped. I've no doubt that you've made the right choice. And the image of a tiny woman with a long blade is absolutely terrifying. =)
