Description
You channel negative energy to harm the living or heal the undead.
You restore Hit Points equal to 1d8 plus your spellcasting ability modifier to a willing undead target, or deal that amount of negative damage to a living target. The number of actions spent Casting this spell determines its targets, range, area, and other parameters.
- Somatic Casting
The spell has a range of touch. You must succeed at a melee touch attack to damage a living target. - Somatic Casting, Verbal Casting
The spell has a range of 30 feet and doesn’t require a touch attack when targeting a living creature. A living target must attempt a Fortitude save, taking half damage on a success, no damage on a critical success, or double damage on a critical failure. - Material Casting, Somatic Casting, Verbal Casting
You disperse negative energy in a 30-foot aura. This has the same effect as the two-action version, but it targets all living and undead creatures in the burst and reduces the amount of healing or damage to your spellcasting ability modifier.
Heightened (+1) the amount of healing or damage increases by 1d8, or by 2d8 if you’re using the 1- or 2-action version to heal undead.
