There's no such thing as "arrow resistant".
There's only "everything resistant".
Piercing damage always deals more damage against heavily armored opponents than cutting damage, it's just a matter of "Am I going to kill this guy before he catches up to me".
In the case of the Wraiths, they have 200+ armor, as do their horses.
Depending on infantry against Wraiths is a particularly bad idea though, since their weapons have 150 speed, 120 reach, 120 damage, and crushthrough.
