View Full Version : Pathfinder 2e Saves vs. magic effects are applying to all saves

It seems the "magic" trait filter for a SAVE effect is not functioning properly. Non-magical activities that call for a saving throw or check against a save DC are having the save bonus applied erroneously.

For example: SAVE: 1 status, magic

This effect is applying to their saving throws and save DCs when the character is subjected to any and all feat and skill activities, such as Grapple, Demoralize, or Bon Mot, not just activities with traits that indicate the activity as being magical (arcane, divine, occult, primal, or legacy spell schools)

It is a bug in the new effects system and how it's filtering effect parameters - the issue occurs if a trait name matches the name of a damage type. I'll reach out to Moon Wizard to look into it.
