"Arcane Bond - Object" seems to not work for Sorcerers
It's a perk that can be selected by some arcane casters at character creation. It's supposed to replenish one spell, once per day. There appears to be no way to activate it, as it doesn't add any usable object or ability.

UPDATE: According to the feedback in this thread, it seems that Arcane Bond doesn't work for Sorcerers but works fine for other casters.

It works for me. Just click on the small arrow above the spell in your quick item list and then on Arcane Bond. It takes a second before the spell is replenished so don't wonder if doesn't appear immediately in paused game mode.

That arrow doesn't appear for me. Perhaps Arcane Bond only works for some classes? I'm a sorcerer with Arcane bloodline.

I have it on Octavia (she currently has wizard lvl 3).

Ace, does Arcane Bond use an equippable inventory slot on your character? Thanks

A companion has joined my group who's a cleric with Arcane Bond, and it works for him.
I now think that Arcane Bond only works for spellcasters that memorise spells before resting, but not for spontaneous casters like the Sorcerer.

PRD says that you should be able to cast from your spells known, if you are a sorcerer. Sounds like a bug with the item not having the correct field flags set.

I have sorcerer and its not working - so its a bug and it needs to be fixed.

Not to be a ♥♥♥♥, but the topic is "Arcane Bond doesn't work for Sorcerers", so saying "it works fine for my wizard!" is really irrelevant.

The original title was "Arcane Bond doesn't work", I've changed it once we established that it's only broken on sorcerers.

Sorcerers seem to have issues with most magic feats not working, like arcane bond, or spell specialisation or spell focus
Humaktson Sep 28, 2018 @ 7:58am 
Spell Focus, Greater Spell Focus and Spell Specialization feats also don't work with Sorcerers.
Yeah its a really big bummer since sorcerer is my fav class, Does any know what the empty feat below detect magic on the Sage Sorcerer progression is suppose to be? any pathfinder pros?

Was this ever fixed? Sucks to have to reroll due to a bug.
Malacar Jul 12, 2019 @ 4:42am 
I'm pretty sure it was.
