Effects that duplicate Cure and Inflict spells


Rules Questions


Reading the Pallid Crystal from Inner Sea Gods says that it doesn't effect other uses of positive and negative energy only cure and inflict spells and effects that duplicate them; what counts as effects that duplicate them? Would it effect Channel Energy, or a spell like Chill Touch, etc?


Presumably wishes or any other spell that can "duplicate" a lower level spell are what counts.

Additionally any effect whose description says "this functions as cure/inflict" if there are any.

A spell-like ability of, say, mass inflict light wounds would qualify. The witch's healing hex probably does. Channel energy or an undead's touch don't duplicate cure or inflict spells.

edit: Neither a casting nor a spell-like ability of chill touch duplicates an inflict spell.
