Two New Metamagic Feats For your Consideration

Blockader7

First Post
Phase Spell (Metamagic)

Your spells are no longer hampered by physical barriers.

Benefit: Your spells can pass through physical barriers, but not magic barriers, such as Wall Of Force. However, a spellcaster may not cast a spell through a barrier if they cannot see the target unless s/he has some form of scrying ability which would allow them to do so. A phased spell increases the spell level by three spell levles.

Incoporeal Spell (Metamagic)

Your spells can affect incorporeal beings.

Benefit: your spells are turned incorporeal so that you may be able to affect incorporeal beings. Being incorporeal it will not affect non-corporeal beings An incorporeal spell is increased by 3 spell levels.

I have no idea about the first one, but don't spells affect incorporeals normally?

Yup, but with a 50% chance to do nothing. If the goal of the feat is to remove the 50% miss chance though, I probably wouldn't have it bump up the spell level by more than 2.

This thread would get a larger response in house rules, by the way.

All effects from a corporeal source have a 50% miss chance against incorporeal creatures. Only force effects are sure to hit them.

Considering that incorporeal creatures aren't tremendously common, and that there are other ways to affect them, I don't think this feat is worth three levels. Especially since a spell prepared with the feat is useless against normal targets. Change it to just add the [Force] descriptor to the spell, and I'd still say it's worth +1 level.

Anyway, shouldn't this thread be in House Rules?
