11-23-05, 03:46 AM 1. The Augment Healing feat from CD allows you to add heal an additional 2HP/per spell level for Conjuration (Healing) spells. Does this make Cure Minor Wounds cure 2HP since cantrips are counted as 1/2 level spells for determaning spell effects?

2.What effect does Augment Healing have on the Vigor series of spells?

Is the extra healing tacked on with the first round? the last round? every round?

3.The Radiant Servant of Pelor class ablitlies Empower, Maximize and Supreme Healing say that they trigger whenever a Healing Domain spell is cast. Is this anytime a healing domain spell is cast? Even a Spontaneous cast one? Or just when cast using your Domain Slot?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

2. None. The spell does not heal. It grants the ability to mimic a Su ability.
3. Domain spells count as Domain spells only in their Domain slots. You cannot fill a non-Domain slot with a Domain spell (unless the spell is normally on your list). However, I feel this is probably more restrictive of an interpretation than the designers intended. Without closer analysis, I would assume they meant any time, any slot -- even spontaneously.

11-23-05, 09:50 AM 2. If I recall the text on Augment Healing correctly it reads something like this:

Add +2 points per spell level to the amount healed by any Conjuration healing spell you cast.

By that wording, since the Vigor spells are Conjuration (Healing) spells that heal 0 damage (they only grant Fast Healing) this feat would cause you to heal 0 +2*spell level when initially cast. Thus Lesser Vigor would heal 2 points immediatly on the target it was cast on and then grant Fast Healing 1 for the duration.

Mind you this is a very literal interpretation of the feat as written. To many DMs this may seem a bit silly and I would think they would be well within their rights to say the feat does nothing since the spell doesn't actually heal damage.
