[QUOTE="Nahat Anoj, post: 4605155, member: 25075"] Regarding Healer's Lore, the text for the class feature says "when you grant healing with one of your cleric powers that has the healing keyword, add your Wisdom modifier to the hitpoints the recipient gains." So I'd say that if the power has the healing keyword, the cleric adds his Wis mod to the hit points gained, no matter what. For example, looking at Divine Power, a level 9 cleric prayer, it has the keyword "healing" and the effect "Until the end of the encounter, you gain regeneration 5..." So here is how I see it being played out: 1. Cleric used the power, gains the effect. 2. Start of cleric's next turn. He gains 5 hit points. How were these hit points gained? From a power. Is this power a cleric power with the healing keyword? Yes. Then add the cleric's Wis mod to the 5. And so on until the end of the encounter (or the PC is reduced to 0 hit points, in which case the regeneration ends). Healer's Lore does say "when you grant healing," suggesting some kind of active process on the cleric's part, and the regeneration could be considered more "automatic." But, according to page 293 in the PHB, regeneration is "a special form of healing," and this healing certainly was granted by the cleric. So it seems to me that the cleric's Wis mod should still be added in to the amount regenerated. [/QUOTE]
