Ok, just so that I have this right...

If I have a level 2 paladin with a +4 to his Charisma that has Radiant Charge as a feat, is it that he can with a single swing expend 5 Lay On Hands to get 5d6 +4 of damage added to his attack as part of a charge?

I'm going from what I'm reading on the Paizo site. Maybe its different in the book but that is what I'm reading.

Also if this is the case does it stack with Smite Evil?

And if this is the case.... (OoO)!

Radiant Charge
When you charge, you do so with the power of faith.
Prerequisite: Lay on hands class feature.
Benefit: When you hit with a charge attack, you can expend all of your remaining uses of lay on hands to deal extra damage equal to 1d6 per use of lay on hands expended + your Charisma bonus. This damage comes from holy power and is not subject to damage reduction, energy immunities, or energy resistances.


Sorry, level 3 I meant.


The Radiant Charge damage bonus is untyped, so I don't see why not. It is powerful, but remember that it is limited to once per day, and the Paladin looses a lot of its healing capabilities.

It doesn't explicitly say in the feat description this only works against evil opponents. It does say this in the summary at the beginning of the chapter. Can I use radiant charge against a neutral enemy?
