Question about blossoming light cleric and mythic turn undead


Rules Questions


Basically I am just checking whether mythic turn undead would let a mythic blossoming cleric destroy chaotic evil outsiders, worshippers of CE gods and evil creature with light sensitivity since they count as undead for the purposes of his channel energy. Also would mythic turn undead also work with the creatures type you choose from alignment channel?


The Blossoming Light’s channel undead says it affects those creatures as if they were undead. So, mythic turn undead could destroy those creatures. But mythic turn undead only works on a limited number of HD per tier and cannot affect a creature of more than 8 HD.

Alignment channel on the other hand allows you to affect outsiders of that alignment instead of undead. Since they are not treated as undead mythic turn undead does not work with mythic turn undead.


RAW, probably no. <Pedantically anyway>

The turn undead and its mythic counterpart add additional ways to use your channel energy ability which are specifically separate from regular channeling to harm or heal.

From Turn Undead, "If you use channel energy in this way, it has no other effect (it does not heal or harm nearby creatures)"

The ability is explicitly only for when channeling to harm.

Panicking or destroying sound like they are to harm, but the terminology is more specific in this case. Would need a broader phrase along the lines of "whenever the blossoming light uses channel energy, she treats chaotic evil outsiders, worshipers of chaotic evil deities, and evil creatures with light sensitivity or light blindness as if they were undead," or have a "for all purposes relating to channel energy."

Likewise, alignment channel has no effect on turn undead.

Ooo, technically you are right I guess I have to ask my dm if he is willing to let it slide thanks
