[QUOTE="Kraydak, post: 5006272, member: 12306"] Not actually explicitly clear in the rules. Presumably different from whoever you had previously challenged when the new challenge was issued. The important question is whether you need there to have been a previous challengee for that event to trigger (which is my leaning), or whether a nul set counts. Elaboration: the text of relevence is:[I] On your turn, you must engage the target you chal- lenged or challenge a different target. To engage the target, you must either attack it or end your turn adjacent to it. If none of these events occur by the end of your turn, the marked condition ends and you can’t use divine chal- lenge on your next turn. [/I] I repeat this block because this is the block of text that gets run. It gets run whether I start the turn with target A challenged and don't change, or whether I do change to target B. If I change to target B, I note that, *On my turn* I *challenged a different target*, (redundantly) which event occurred before the *end of my turn*. [/QUOTE]
