Im confused as to what this addition to a weapon does.
So it gives it a +1, lasts 1 round per D6 of channel energy, counts as good and silver for damage reduction, but how much damage does it actually do? It says a D6 but then it talks about the flame strike spell... Thoughts?
You get the +1 damage from the higher enhancement bonus.
And the damage type is divine, the same as flamestrike. Basically, nothing can resist this damage.
So it's only the 1D6+1, similar to Flaming with some additional benefits?
Yep, it's essentially 1d6+1, but A) the extra damage can't be resisted, B) your weapon counts as a higher enhancement bonus for the purposes of damage reduction piercing, C) it counts as Good and Silver.
It's not so bad at later levels, once it'll last for a few rounds and if you don't plan on using Channel Energy. I quite like it myself.
Im debating between that and flaming since I have 8 channel energies. I'm also a Holy Vindicator so I also need to use those to power my shield and heal the party...
