Lol @ the statement that sorc will automatically and instantly rock the faec of a bard in the eth plane just because he's Fist. Very much doubt that will be the case, especially since the eth thing allows the bard to use their more powerful chords and hit only their intended target.

That seems a bit sketchy to me as well... I don't suppose we have any logs of sorc v bard fight in the ethereal plane yet, eh?

I still like the idea that spells affecting spirits affect ethereal with some affects.

HOWEVER

You could also put some negatives on the spell: LIKE

> No manage regen in the form.
> Fatigue intelligence or Mana after leaving

Okay. Someone go roll a bard or rogue and try to kill him. I'll wait here while you come back to cry. Don't say I didn't warn you. There should be 0 spells that affect anything outside of the ethereal plane while you are ethereal yourself.

I don't see how a rogue can kill said sorcie 1vs1 without a true sight potion+backstab, since they will have access to 0 skills while ethereal and fighting 1 on 1.

Bards have a few good options in order to win.

Or an imm can cook up a fresh batch of Knightlord Amulets so barbarians can go do it.

A rogue has a decent shot at taking him down even without a true sight potion. Your first stab has a 1 in 6 chance of hitting him. Assuming it misses, the second stab will have a 1 in 5 chance of landing.

A fully buffed rogue stabbing a non-magical protection race sorcerer should one-shot him. It seems people would rather whine on the boards about etherealform than do something about this character in the game, though.

A good warlock also has pretty a decent shot at taking him down, too.

Finney... you do realize that you can't circle him since you're in direct combat in the ethereal plane, and that he's getting 6 strikes to your 3?

We have really gone off the deep-end if fist sorcerer is being complained about as overpowering.
