Message: <blockquote data-quote="Starglim" data-source="post: 2779615" data-attributes="member: 17011">What Jack said. A ghost touch weapon does not overcome etherealness. When ethereal, he cannot attack anything on the material plane and can only be harmed by Force spells, notwithstanding ghost touch weapons on either side.What a ghost does is to move from residing fully on the ethereal plane (as an ordinary ethereal object) to existing partly on the material plane, but also its material form happens to be incorporeal. It's unfortunate that the 3.0 text for manifestation conflated the two conditions. The 3.5 text is clear:edit: Further to what Cabral was going to say, but didn't, a fun thing to do to a ghost using a ghost touch weapon is to disarm it (no miss chance), then use its own weapon against it (no miss chance until it de-manifests, then you have a free magic weapon from the encounter).</blockquote>
