"This sword gives on a wave of multicolored sparks when swung. The sparks sting to the touch."
A wiffing weapon can hurt you, even if it misses. A wiffing weapon is wrapped in swirling magical energy which scatters around when used. If you miss with a wiffing weapon due to not hitting the opponent's AC but you still hit their touch AC, you still deal your weapon damage + its enhancement bonus (up to your BAB in damage). Do not add damage from strength, sneak attack, applied poisons, or other sources. This does not work if you missed due to miss chance or hitting the wrong square.
For example, a fighter (BAB +20) misses but hits the touch AC, and deals 2d6+4 for his greatsword +4. Another fighter with the same weapon (BAB +3) also misses but hits touch, but his damage is capped at 3 on the miss, even if he rolled max damage (6+6+4=16 damage).
Faint Evocation; CL 5th; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, magic missile; Price: +1.
