Say You Shot a Ghost...

<... and you hit a part that isn't the sphere/core in the middle. Does the Ghost feel pain? Is it effectively injured? Does it just get disoriented from the initial shot? I realize that if you stab a Ghost in the eye, you'll kill it. I assume this is due to the core housing the orb of Light that a Ghost actually is. I'm just curious how close you could get to the core without actually harming that orb of Light. Not only that, but I believe this information is necessary in understanding the Traveler, the Pyramids, and possibly the Winnower itself if it takes up a vessel or shell of some kind. EDIT - guys I'm just trying to gauge whether the Traveler was actually hurt during the Red War and if the broken shell actually matters in its recovery.>

    I’ve wondered about this too. Ghosts have been shown feeling pain, but only when having their Light stripped. We’ve seen them take damage, sometimes crippling the Shell like Sai Mota’s Ghost or knocking them out like Sagira, but we don’t have any examples of them feeling pain from having their Shells damaged. Paola’s Death was faked, but I think it’s worth noting that in the fake recording she screamed when she was stabbed in the eye. Perhaps that means it is painful, or perhaps it was supposed to be a cry of shock/fear. Edit: The Nessus strike has been mentioned and I see you countered with the whole Shell and core being damaged. So are you just ignoring the core and wondering if the decorative triangle bits feel pain or not?
