I can't seem to get a +1 CHA sacred bonus to work and I can't figure out why. I used the same formula for Cat's Grace except that I am using CHA instead of DEX. Any help would be kindly appreciated.

Thanks

Sincerely Aramis

Try having a space between : and 1, as "CHA: 1 sacred"

The space should not matter :) CHA: 1 was used as it stands in the chat, but it only gives a bonus of 1, in PF1 you only get a bonus of temporary effects for each multiple of 2, that is, CHA: 2 gives you plus 1 then :) That is regardless whether you have an odd CHA score right now

in 3.5e it contributes directly to the ability score, but for PF1 FG will treat effects as temporary bonusses: https://www.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?Name=Ability%20Score%20Bonuses&Category=Special%20Abilities, the same for ability damage by the way: https://www.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?Name=Ability%20Score%20Damage,%20Penalt y,%20and%20Drain&Category=Special%20Abilities :)
