One of my players has a Horn of Blasting and has it equipped. The automation on the horn is "[EFFECT equip SKILL: 2 item, performance]" and it shows up under character effects on the combat tab and on the combat tracker. Yet when they make a Performance check it only lists [EFFECTS +1] and only adds one to the die roll. I have noticed this with another item as well - but for nature. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

An item automation entry of "[EFFECT equip SKILL: 2 item, performance]" works correctly in a test.

When something like [EFFECTS +1] shows in the roll details in chat, this is the total modifier for all effects that apply to the roll. So there's probably some other effect that's reducing the total effect modifier.

I found it - you were correct - which is why I post here. The PCs in question had frightened 1 on their statuses along with a bunch of other ones making it hard to notice it. Sorry for the false alarm.
