Random Tidbits: Ethereal Plain Units

[Nefarius]

Units on this plain (as a simple rule anything Ghostlike) take a special role in the new damage routines. Any physical damage dealt by such units is treated as magical damage, at the same time, any physical damage dealt to these units by units that are not on the ethereal plain is zeroed (that is, they take no physical damage, unless you are also ethereal, in which case you deal magic damage to them).

Soooo, what are you supposed to do against these things, the obvious answer of course would be to use elemental or magical attacks, another option is to become ethereal yourself (while you are ethereal things based on physical damage are not existent, leeching will not work etc) or use an ethereal weapon, attacks using such weapons are handled as if you were ethereal yourself.
