12-14-06, 01:37 AM If I stand 'inside' of an incorporeal creature that is significantly larger than me(say Huge size), does it's AC effect mine in any way?

specifically, if I'm a necromancer who creates a Dream Vestige, if I stand inside it during combat, does it's Deflective Aura(deflection bonus to AC) and/or it's own deflection bonus for being incorporeal grant me a deflection bonus to ranged attacks?

I'm fairly certain the deflection bonus would not help you, but you may be gaining up to Total Concealment, so you might not want to complain about that too severely.

12-14-06, 03:44 AM wow, thanks, that's a nice ilittle rule, I may not worry about dream vestiges, but Huge Ghosts work just as well.

Thanks again.
