With this feat you get access to one of your deities 1st level domain powers.

It Says "Once Per Day"

So, on domain powers like Liberties Blessing (Liberation: Freedom Subdomain) I'm assuming you can only use it once, no matter your Wisdom Modifier.

What about continuous effect ones like "Eyes of the Hawk" (Animal: Feather Subdomain) or "Guarded Mind" (Void Domain)? How long do they last, or does it stay continuous?

Not everyone has the ACG so you probably should have quoted it.

Quote:

Your deity rewards you for your faithfulness.

Prerequisites: Wis 13, alignment must be within one step of your deity’s.

Benefit: Choose one domain granted by your deity. Once per day, you can use all 1st-level domain abilities granted to clerics of that domain. You gain access to this one ability only, not the higher-level domain ability, domain spells, or additional class skills that the domain might grant, or any bonus feats that are listed under its granted powers. Your effective cleric level in regard to this ability is 1st level.

Special: You can take this feat twice. When you take it a second time, you choose another domain granted by your deity.

If you grossly violate the code of conduct required by your deity, your alignment shifts so that it is more than one step away from your deity’s, or you no longer worship your deity, you lose access to this feat. You can regain it once you atone for your misdeeds to your deity (see the atonement spell on page 245 of the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook).

It seems they forgot to account for those. Press the FAQ button.


It could do with an errata to make these things clearer.


Does it work for subdomains at all? The text only covers 'domains'.

I find the phrasing 'all 1st-level domain abilities' irritating. Does it include bonuses like Blind-Fight from Darkness domain or +10 feet speed from Travel domain?

Probably Paizo was extremely cautious about giving cleric power to nonclerics, so this feat really just provides one use of a level 1 domain power per day...
