Thread: 5E - Aura Effects

I was playing around with the better combat effects and seeing if I could replace on going saves in one of my auras:
Moonbeam; AURA: 5 all; IF: FACTION(notself); SAVEOS: CON 14 (M)(H); SAVEDMG: 2d10 radiant, spell, magic
The aura works but it is hitting itself so it is acting like it is ignoring the IF statement. When I use the ongoing saves from Kent:
Moonbeam; AURA: 5 all; IF: FACTION(notself); SAVEO: CON DC 14 (M)(H); SAVEDMG: 2d10 radiant, spell, magic
It is working fine. Is this something that this ext needs to pick up (the SAVEOS) or is this something I should take over to the better combat effects ext for a request?
Any guidance would be great. My goal is to drop a couple of ext and replace them with the better combat effects ext.
Thanks!

It would be possible to automate this power with this extension
Starting at 1st level, you can forge an empowering bond among people who are at peace with one another. As an action, you choose a number of willing creatures within 30 feet of you (this can include yourself) equal to your proficiency bonus. You create a magical bond among them for 10 minutes or until you use this feature again. While any bonded creature is within 30 feet of another, the creature can roll a d4 and add the number rolled to an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw it makes. Each creature can add the d4 no more than once per turn.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

I DM'd you but not sure if it went through, so replying here as well to be safe.
The error only occurred with Polymorph, since it was the only shapechange effect with concentration. The effect applies correctly, but when you break concentration (either by manually deleting the effect, failing a concentration check or clicking the 'Stop Concentrating' button) the error pops up. It doesn't seem to happen if the polymorphed form is reduced to 0 hp and the creature changes back, even though this also removes the polymorph effect. The same thing happens whether the caster is the target or not.
Everything seems to work correctly, even with the error, but since I don't know what the error is I don't know if there is anything unseen going on so I've avoided using them together.
Let me know if you want me to go into more detail on any particular part!

So I was pleasantly surprised to see the update on this thread so thank you for continuing to stay on top of this. I did have an issue with applying it though...
I have a homebrew effect where if anyone is within 5 feet of PC at start of their turn they take 1d4 acid damage from aura. I have it coded as the following:
Effluvium; AURA: 8 all; IF:FACTION(notself); DMGO: 1d4 acid
There is a timing involved and the aura is applied to SELF. Long story short it works great EXCEPT if the creature within the aura is larger than Medium. If it is a large creature, then the 4 squares along the top edge including the corners do not have the FROMAURA effect. Once the PC is in any of the other 6 squares surrounding the Large creature, it will take damage at the start of its turn as it should. Suggestions in regards to size of tokens?

Interesting! I haven't seen this issue myself although I have used large creatures.
What ruleset? Why 8 ft in your effect? Are you using raw distance?
