Would a werewolf ghost retain its DR 10/silver? Combining that with incorporeal is quite a potent defensive ability. The wording is "a ghost retains all of the defensive abilities of the base creature save those that rely on a corporeal form to function."

Hmmm...

I don't like such vagueness. If the DR is Supernatural then I would say it stays, but DR that is an extraordinary quality would go away as a general statement. Natural armor would also go away.


According to the 3.5 SRD it's EX.


I agree with that. Thanks for the help! That would have been a pretty frustrating opponent!


I wouldn't rely upon the 3.5 SRD if you are running it Pathfinder. HOWEVER I would say that it looses that ability as it "feels" corporeal to function to me. That of course is no solid answer and has no rules to back it up, just an opinion.

LOL No 'solid' rules about incorporeal werewolf ghosts... I'm writing that one down! ;)

Only a magical silver/mithral weapon could affect such a creature, which is awfully frustrating, reminds me of some of the 3.0 DRs!

The thing is that DR is still either SU or EX, and pathfinder does not distinguish which applies in the stat blocks. The SRD is all we have to fall back on for now.
