I know it stacks with paladin for the blessing. The question is does that supersede the lay on hands.
MY question is more that is lay on hands a separate pool, or is the blessing just another name for lay on hands.
It talks about it being
like lay on hands, but is it a separate pool? Because if it is the example would mean I had 45 for the lay on hands and 50 for the blessing.
You see? It's funny because it counts the paladin levels for the blessing, yet it doesn't specifically state it supersedes lay on hands. My player is fine either way, but it's ambiguous and I want to give the benefit of the doubt.
Usually when an ability has different name it is separate. The problem arises because it is functionally identical to lay on hands, and even states this much. So is it similar or the same? If it's separate it seems bizarre that it stacks with a paladin, essentially giving a paladin level*cha twice for healing and damaging undead. If it's the same, it's funny that it doesn't say "this stacks with lay on hands" instead of "You add your paladin level". Now do you get what I'm saying?
Spoiler for a more thorough example: (Highlight or hover over the text to view)
I am a 9th level paladin. I have a 20 Cha. I have lay on hands 45. Then when I level I take Champion of Corellon. I still have lay on hands 45, but do I get 50 more healing (functionally identical) from Corellon's blessing? Or do I simple now refer to my lay on hands as Corellon's blessing and have 50 total healing?
