[QUOTE="Hypersmurf, post: 4372482, member: 1656"] Well, the Fighter and Warpriest both have language that states something to the effect of "You may choose to mark...", whereas many powers have language that states "Creature X is marked." If we assume that the lack of "You may choose" wording means the marking happens regardless, then all three enemies are marked by Piercing Smite, which overwrites the Fighter's mark. It also overwrites the Divine Challenge mark, meaning that when the Piercing Smite mark expires at the end of your next turn, the creature under the Divine Challenge will no longer be marked (since the mark applied by Divine Challenge, which expires when you use DC again or fail to engage the target, doesn't exist any more). I'm not certain this means that he is no longer subject to Divine Challenge, however, while he remains marked by you, even though that mark is no longer the mark DC applied. -Hyp. [/QUOTE]
