I believe they are referring to the table on PHB p.29, although I'm not sure why they said "your" given that all the classes share the same table, at least presently. Perhaps that will not be the case in the future. Anyway, at appropriate levels (e.g. 13th, 15th, and so on), the table states...

While getting involved in several threads debating the nuances of Divine Challenge, I hadn't seen anyone appeal to Customer Service, so I asked them myself. In brief, the radiant damage can occur on multiple turns, there may be some subtlety with readied actions that trigger radiant damage, and...

Well, to throw in my two cents, I come down on the "intent" side of the argument (until convinced otherwise, of course). In my view (and my world), the radiant damage is a result of the challenged enemy actively resisting the "magical compulsion". If the challenged enemy is making a good-faith...

For what it's worth, it is very tangentially mentioned in the "How to Read a Power" section in the discussion of the "Hit" entry (PHB p.57). Under there, it says (in a ridiculously easy-to-miss sentence), "See ... page 269[ff] ... [for] how to deal damage ..." That sentence could probably use...

PHB p.293: "... Even if you're unconscious, the power uses your healing surge and restores hit points." Edit: of course, explaining that mechanic would require something like others have suggested above.

Ah, yes, of course, stupid me. I shouldn't make statements like that when I'm too tired to think it through. Okay, then, per my (latest) reading, an enemy could perhaps avoid the radiant damage chance by readying an attack against a third party that triggers before the paladin can sustain the...

Hmm, actually, your argument about thinking about it as a special type of sustaining is gaining a lot of traction in my mind. So it breaks down like this: 1) Divine Challenge an enemy 2) It becomes or stays marked and, for a limited time ("before your next turn"), it has a chance of taking...

I know I'm swimming against the current here (against the majority, the playtesters, etc.), but I am of the opinion that the radiant damage part of Divine Challenge only fires once (if that), at least RAW. Here's my reasoning: "You mark the target. ... While a target is marked, ... Also, it...

Although I do wish it was written out more explicitly, the lists of actions that you can do on your turn and on other turns are on PHB p.269. That list very strongly suggests that opportunity actions simply are not an option on your own turn.

I believe that square is simply out of range of the burst 2 (since you have to count around the wall, p.273).
