Channel Energy DC ?

BusterBluth · December 31st, 2009, 10:42 AM

Herolab shows my cleric with a Channel Energy DC of 13. His CHA = 12, he's level 1, so shouldn't this DC either be 11 or 12, depending on how you round his level?

Tell me more about the character - you haven't listed any cleric domains, feats, traits, magic items, etc. that could also be affecting that value.

Try starting with a blank character. Add a level of cleric, and look at the channel DC. Increase CHA to 12, and look at the channel DC. If that's not 11, then there's something wrong with the program.

Yes, I get a DC of 11 when I start with a blank character.

Thanks for pointing out domains. This character's picked 'Glory' which does impact the DC. So, yep, it makes sense!! Thanks again and have a great New Year!
