[QUOTE="Dr_Rictus, post: 477908, member: 850"] Sure he could. He could [i]teleport[/i] away. Nobody says he has to stand there like a dummy and bare the target painted on his chest while the ethereal party gets into position. He could duck into an alcove, so the invaders couldn't drop out of the ethereal in positions that surrounded him. For extra fun, he can have surrounded his defensive position with [i]invisible[/i] blocks, so the ethereal attackers will try it anyway, and be shunted into disarray. Or he can have surrounded it with traps. Also, [i]etherealness[/i] doesn't have such a hot duration (1 minute/level). Twenty minutes isn't all that long to even find a specific person in an area you're unfamiliar with, so unless your party scouts very patiently (which the situation may not give them time to do), they're going to have a hard time keeping someone from knowing there's an attack going on.
