Can a Cleric deliver a inflict wounds spell though a melee weapon?


Thank you for the help in advance.

No.

Unless using a special power, a feat or a spell, one cannot cast touch spells through weapons.

I can't think of a feat right now, but the PrC Spellsword has the power to chanel spells (even though it is arcane, one could modify it).

Happy posting, happy gaming.

Thank you for the help.

Does anyone know of a feat or weapon that would let inflict spells to be used with a melee weapon?

Feat: Improved Unarmed Strike

You can deliver touch spells in conjunction with an unarmed strike

Daggerspell mages (Complete Adventurer) can do infuse their daggers with spell power to cause their daggers to do additional elemental damage.

You could use a spell-storing weapon. I never thought of giving a cleric one of those, but that's a really good idea..

Otherwise, I'd think that the spellsword would work, except a spellsword gains the ability to wear armor & cast spells. That's kind of pointless for a cleric..
