We encountered one of these tonite (nasty sucker) and got to wondering how attacking the host of the infused effigy worked exactly.
His infuse ability says it works like magic jar except for a few listed differences, however none of them mention what happens if the possessed host is struck by a weapon that can hit incorpeal such as a +1 dagger. Does your attack roll get applied against both host and effigy AC and damage dealt to both?
Is it possible to damage an effigy that is infused into a host? What if you have a magic weapon that can only hit incorpeal, and bypasses the host to strike the effigy? Not sure if such a weapon exists or not.
Also, once the effigy is infused, does he have access to the hosts Su,Ex, abilities, spells, special qualities, etc? Or just mundane weapons that he may be holding?
