Gonna throw in with Alson here, and based on the testing by Lord Demerol, with Dundee, too.
I know for a fact that Nalia walked through the trap on the Guarded Compound with only a stoneskin on. Her only resistance item was her ring. The message box said she sprung the trap, but absolutely nothing happened. And I know for a fact that the previous game, my wife's cleric of Lathander, (obviously, no Stoneskin) tripped the trap and died, 108 points of damage, or something like that.
I don't know how the BGII system works, but in PNP, you could eliminate damage from a acid spear with either stoneskin, keeping it from hitting you, or from protection from Acid, other than the possible damage from the spear. Though I have a hard time imagining itin the real world, from a data structure POV, I don't doubt that any given trap might have flags of piercing and acid, so that either may prevent it.
Guess what I'm saying is that the green blob animation may be used for several difffernt types of traps, some of which may be prevented by one type of protection, some from another, and some from both...
