OK if you can't persuade the GM to allow parrying arrows as a setting tweak, you could go with Parry missile skill (I guess you have a good basic DX). Tie that with Enhanced parry and trained by a master for multiple parries.

Acrobatic dodge is good

Does "Dodge this" in Pyramid 57 allow for parrying arrows (I don't have access to it where I am right now)

MA allows for multiple blocks but at a hefty -5 penalty.
