I'm building a recurring villain inquisitor for my game who uses a conductive sword to use some nasty abilities. For most of his spell-like abilities it's very clear how this works. He hits somebody with the sword, and once per round can expend two charges of that ability and WHAM! One Touch of Chaos/Laughing Touch in your face! However, I'm having trouble with one of his spell-like abilities, chill touch, which he gets as a racial spell-like ability.
Chill touch explicitly states that the caster of the spell can use the melee touch attack once per level. This dude is currently 6th level, so if he were to use this spell-like ability normally, he could zap someone 6 times after activating it.
The Conductive property states
If he were to attack with his sword and conduct chill touch, would it:
1. Use up two of his per day uses of the Spell-like ability Chill
Touch.
2. Use up two of the 6 zaps per activation of the Spell-like
ability Chill Touch?
My main problem here is the ambiguity of the word "uses" in the Conductive Property and how "channeling" the ability does not state whether the effect of the ability is transferred through the sword strike or if the ability itself is activated through the sword strike.
What say ye?
