Love subdomain - Adoration ability question

Silver Crusade

The Love subdomain of the Charm domain replaces the level 1 dazing touch power with adoration:

Quote:
Adoration (Su): As an immediate action, you can attempt to thwart a melee or ranged attack that targets you. This ability functions as sanctuary, but only against one individual attack. You must use the ability after the attack is declared but before the roll is made. The creature attacking you receives a Will save to negate this effect. If a creature has more than one attack, this ability only affects one of the attacks. You can use the ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier. This is a mind-affecting effect.

What's the DC of that Will save?


It says it functions as Sanctuary. So the DC will be 10+spell level(1) + modifier.

"If a subdomain ability calls for a saving throw, the DC of the save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the character's cleric level + her Wisdom modifier."

When the ability does not specifically call out that it functions as "insert spell here" you are absolutely correct!

In this case it functions as the spell Sanctuary.

I've got to agree with Ssalarn on this one. I missed that line at the start of the subdomain section, but now that I read it, I'd agree that it applies here. The Sanctuary reference just explains the effect of the ability, but this ability isn't a spell, so it shouldn't have a spell-level based DC for the save.

Exactly this.


the DC is at the start of the subdomain page Sancutary is just explaining how the ability works not the DC.
