Extra channel with nonclerics


Rules Questions


How does extra channel work for classes like warpriest and paladin that use other abilities to fuel their channeling?


Extra Channel gives you two additional channel uses per day.

For a paladin, you can use lay on hands four additional times a day, but only to channel positive energy. This is specified in the feat under the "special" section. As a result, you are essentially gaining two channel positive energy/day.

A warpriest works in a very similar way, using fervor. While it isn't expressly specified (because Core versus later additions), it is very reasonable to assume it works in the same way. I would say it grants four extra fervor, but only to channel energy. While it hasn't been FAQed that way to my knowledge, I would strongly back this even in PFS games.

Prerequisite: Channel energy class feature.

Special: If a paladin with the ability to channel positive energy takes this feat, she can use lay on hands four additional times per day, but only to channel positive energy.
