Using positive energy, this spell heals serious injuries or damages undead. When cast on any target besides undead, the damage healed is increased by 50% if the caster has the healing domain. This stacks with, and is applied after, metamagic empower. When cast on undead, a successful melee touch attack is required to have an effect on the target. The damage to undead is doubled when a critical hit is made, and sneak attacks will increase the damage as well (though undead are normally immune to both). The effects vary depending on how the spell is cast, but the positive damage to undead is the same amount as the healing for other targets.
- If cast normally, the target is healed the greater of: a) 1d6% of the target's maximum HP for every 2 caster levels, up to a maximum of 9d6%, or b) 3d8 +1 point per caster level (up to +15). For undead, the damage calculation is based on current HP rather than maximum HP.
- If cast from any item (including artificed wands/scrolls), the target is healed 3d8 +1 point per caster level (up to +15).
