guidance and passive ability checks ?
hi there, been searching online to try and find an answer but had no luck so maybe someone here will know :
does guidance affect passive ability checks ? like say, perception checks for traps / hidden stuff while exploring
thanks !

Yes there is another button can press before a roll. That adds extra bonuses to the roll. Can send you screenshot in a moment.

Yep, i wish there was reguirement that the caster of guidance needs to be in x range of the target all the time, it would be much better for quality of live instead of being time limited like in tabletop

you don't have to recast it constantly, the 3 party members you don't control lag way behind your active character so if you fail a skill check while exploring, the other 3 haven't done the check yet.
