Overall, I like this article. In playtesting, it provides for extra healing ability in a group, w/o going overboard. The limits of it not affecting undead is a good balance. One player in my group made the following justification for the feat: "The ones who will use this, can be regarded as faithful laymen, who have manifest a form of their faith, though they are not fully invested holy figures (cleric or paladin)

Are you sure it's Low?

While hardly amazing by any standard, Lay on Hands is still useful to have. A full round action isn't a big deal (a 1 round action would be a bigger deal) since using a standard to heal is "you're still not acting this round" anyway. And the no undead harming is a nerf but not really a big one, it's better used as healing anyway.

I'm not entirely sure it's Low. I am willing to be swayed. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 01:49, 21 April 2019 (MDT)

Hmm. It might be moderate, but I've always seen Lay on Hands as pretty slim pickings for healing unless you're level one or two. I can change it to Moderate, since the bonus to pre-existing Lay on Hands is also fairly good for a Paladin. --Locke (talk) 08:16, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
