Many players can/will abuse what I believe the nature of Incorporeal to be. For instance, I've seen a summoned [[Donjon]] hurling himself bodily in front of [[Fireball|Fireballs]] lobbed at his summoner, deflecting them and claiming no damage due to being Incorporeal. [[Reeve|Reeves]] are advised to look out for this and rule as they see fit on it; my personal verdict would be that the player was dead for intentionally stopping the Fireball (seeing as it is an object with a physical presence). It can't be helped that Incorporeal players have a tangible battlefield presence and thus will stop, say, arrows that genuinely accidentally happen to hit them (albeit perhaps painfully), but intentionally blocking things smacks of loophole/grey area exploitation.

This tends to cause frustration in other players, as well, which can lead to Incorporeal players being smacked incessantly with weapons even when they are clearly immune, as a means of forcing them to leave an area or simply to vent player frustration. --[[Miles Ookami]]
