Mythic Path Ability: Relentless Healing + Conduit Feat: Healer's Hands


Rules Questions


So, very specific rules question; when you use the relentless healing hierophant mythic path ability it states "...as a free action you can expend one use of mythic power to apply healing magic to that creature. This healing can be from a spell or effect you cause or from a magic item you wield." With this being stated would the use of the feat <Healer's Hands> be considered an effect? Or would it be considered an altered skill check and thus unusable?

I'm very... iffy on it, as it is an feat that can't be used in AMF (considered a Su ability) or when denied access to the planes (dimensional anchor, dimensional lock or forbiddance).

This is for a "anything goes" campaign with exception to no 3rd party materials, and I wish to know if/when mythic becomes a thing if I can give the equivalent of CPR to revive someone with this combo.


I see no reason it would not work. As long as you are the one doing the healing it will cost you 1 use of your mythic power to bring a target back from the dead. The target must meet all the other requirements like having died within 1 round and the healing actually putting them above the threshold of death. If the healing is not coming from you, or the dead target you cannot use relentless healing.

The fact that the effect is coming from a skill does not mean it is not an effect.

Awesome. Was thinking of using this concept in conjunction with heal skill unlock feat from Unchained.


Agreed, looks as legit as using it with a paladin's lay on hands ability. They're both magical, so the power should work.
