Concentration checks for Bards, Paladins and Sorcerers all use their Charisma modifier.


A far stretch of the rules, one could possibly say that any saving throw made by a paladin of second level or higher, since he adds his charisma to any of those checks. I would immediately laugh anyone who tried that at my table out of the room.

Also, if, for some reason none of the three "face" skills were relevant in a social encounter, your DM may call for a basic "charisma check".


In 3.5 a big use was for turning undead, obviously not the case now in PFRPG, but thats where I saw it get the most use.

You know, I never thought of using it for that.
