My character is a Paladin, and we are going into an evil temple during tomorrow's gaming session. We know that there will be evil divine casters, undead and probably an Anti Paladin (just guessing, but if I were DM that's what I'd do).
Since my Paladin could easily end up fighting the AntiPaladin, which means our aura's cancel each other out etc etc, I'm thinking that I am for sure going to have Corruption Resistance as a prep spell. 9th level paladin gets (in effect) a DR10 against the AP Smite Good etc. My question is to see if there is a better list of what else Corruption Resistance helps against.
"You grant the touched creature limited protection from magical effects that inflict damage based on the target creature's alignment, such as holy smite, order's wrath, a paladin's smite evil attack, or an unholy weapon..."
So, for example, I'm thinking that it would help against "Channel Negative Energy", since that is obviously alignment based. And while the AP ability "touch of corruption" would logically seem that it should be included, the writeup does not say anything about affecting (or not affecting) anyone of a certain alignment, thus I would say no (using the RAW). Unholy Blight, since alignment is mentioned in the spell description, would be affected.
I think I'm approaching this correctly, right?
