Selective Channeling (General)

You can choose whom to affect when you channel energy.

Source: Pathfinder d20pfsrd.com

  • Prerequisite: Charisma 13, channel energy class feature.
  • Benefit: When you channel energy, you can choose a number of targets in the area up to your Charisma modifier. These targets are not affected by your channeled energy.
  • Normal: All targets in a 30-foot burst are affected when you channel energy. You can only choose whether or not you are affected.
FAQ/Errata
Do I have to be able to see a creature in order to exclude them from the effect of my channeled energy?
 
Just like using a Target: creature spell, you must be able to see or touch a creature to affect it (or, in the case of this feat, select it to be unaffected). Pinpointing the square of an invisible creature isn’t sufficient – you must be able to see or touch the creature. Note that this works differently than an alchemist’s precise bombs discovery, which allows the alchemist to exclude *squares* from his bomb’s splash area (not targets).
