Would Bracers of Armor apply for the incorporeal *touch* attack of a wraith?
DM, pg 78: "The physical attacks of incorporeal creatures ignore material armor...unless it is made of force" (which bracers are).
I argue that this says "physical attacks", that is not the same thing as touch attacks. Touch attacks very specifically state that they ignore armor. There's no allowance for the type of armor or the type of touch.
If this was a slam attack, then yes, the bracers would apply. Touch attack, no.
Anybody else?
