You respond to an attack by briefly becoming vaporous and insubstantial, allowing the attack to pass harmlessly through you. You gain DR 10/magic against this attack and are immune to any poison, sneak attacks, or critical hit effect from that attack.

You cannot use windy escape against an attack of opportunity you provoked by casting a spell, using a spell-like ability, or using any other magical ability that provokes an attack of opportunity when used.

So, either the attack passes harmlessly through you, taking 0 damage, or do you just get DR 10/magic against the damage? Or, would the DR just apply to attacks that are still effective against insubstantial opponents such as incorporeal?


DR 10/magic. The first part is the desriptive text part.

Cap. Darling has it right. You just get DR 10/magic against the attack.

Also note that the spell doesn't make you incorporeal, it just turns you into gas (sort of like gaseous form, if you will). So attacks that specifically work on incorporeal creature won't have any special advantage against the windy escaping wizard.

Source: I wrote this spell.


It should have been DR 10/- :/

For a first level spell? Not really.

Like I said, I used gaseous form for the precedent on the DR, and that spell grants DR/magic.

You got beef, take it up with the guy who wrote that spell! :)

I so want an item with #/day auto trigger with that spell.
