So, I am facing an encounter with an incorporeal target using an archer with a magic bow. The arrows though as not magical. Can they still affect the target?
I know the rules state that a magic bow makes arrows magical for purposes of overcoming DR, but it doesn't say anything for incorporeal targets.
Will I need to use +1 arrows in order to hit an incorporeal target?
Thanks as always to the Hive.

For reference, this FAQ explains that anything treated as magic to overcome DR also hits incorporeality. Since the arrows fired from a magic bow are magic, you're good to go. Enjoy shootin' them ghosts!

Thank you Quibblemuch!
That was what I needed to hear. It was what I figured but I wanted official support if it comes up.
