Is incorporeal status JUST a benefit?


Rules Questions


I see where regular creatures take penalty to damaging a corporeal creature but does that go both ways? Or are Incorporeal creatures that say, use spells, using spells that are manifesting in the material world?

Is there any negative to being incorporeal?- Seems like being a Ghost is preferable to being a Lich in terms of immortality and power? Am I missing something?


Incorporeal creatures have no Strength score, and are unable to take advantage of several tactical options (such as using most magic items) as a result. This also means that they can't possibly cast spells with non-eschewable material components.

But otherwise, incorporeal is strictly an advantage.


Oh... wow... That is AWESOME! Thanks :)
