Sacred bonus

[eben ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ]

I just wanna ask what is sacred bonus means? Like the blessing of the faithful (cleric skill). A blessed ally gains a +2 sacred bonus on atk rolls, skill check, etc. Is it just an ordinary bonus? Or it only works on evil? Thanks

The type of the bonus is only relevant for the question whether it stacks with other stuff.
So a sacred bonus of +1 would stack with a moral bonus of +2 to a total of +3
whereas, is the second bonus would also be sacred they would not stack and you would only get a total of +2

just type of bonus for the purpose of determining whether it can stack or not.

[Marcos_DS]

Sacred bonus is just the bonus type. However its type is rare, so its very likely you don't already have it (so it will stack)

It is also important for AC calculations. If you are Flat Footed or are the target of a Touch Attack, you still get your Sacred Bonus in either case. Sacred, Profane, Luck, Deflection and Morale bonuses to AC are very desirable for this reason.

Most bonus types do not stack, so it is beneficial to have many different types.

Bonus types that stack with itself:
Dodge: always stacks
Circumstance: can stack, if they are not from the same source

Is there any other ac bonus except dodge which you lose on flat footed?

Your dex bonus... so if you have 20 dex (+5 bonus to AC), you'll lose that as well as whatever dodge bonus you have.
