Shatter as sonic damage

[kengar]

From the SRD

...Alternatively, you can target shatter against a single solid object, regardless of composition, weighing up to 10 pounds per caster level. Targeted against a crystalline creature (of any weight), shatter deals 1d6 points of sonic damage per caster level (maximum 10d6), with a Fortitude save for half damage.

Now, if there was a non-crystalline entity with Sonic vulnerability, but weighed -say- several hundred pounds; could this spell deal damage to it? Or is it useless unless the caster can affect the entire creature's mass?

Targeted creatures are affected regardless of weight.

Targeted creatures are affected regardless of weight.

He's asking about non-crystalline, not crystalline.

Kengar, you can't affect a non-crystalline creature; a creature is not an object. And if you attempt to target, say, a table weighing 50 pounds, it will also fail; the single solid object you are attempting to target weighs more than 30 pounds, and is thus an invalid target (assuming caster level 3, say).

OK, that's what I needed to know, HS. Thanks
