"in harm's way" "bodyguard" feat observation

[mbradtke]

So i'm just playing around with divine guardian class and i've noticed 2 things which act a bit strange
1. bodyguard should work for attacks which are in melee range of the bodyguard, however, it doesnt always work with 6 feet reach weapons, also it does work even if u are not in melee range without reach weapons (ordinary longsword f.e), my conclusion is that u just have to be close to the target that u are protecting but the range seems to be shorter than f.e the teamwork feat, so not sure what this is about, i guess they just changed the way it works in game compared to pnp so this seems not to be much of a problem but

2. in harms way, my only real concern here is that it doesnt redirect all side effects if damage is redirected, not sure if that works at all as it doesnt work for knockdown combat maneuver, f.e valerie is guarded by the paladin, wolf attacks valerie->hit->paladin gets dmg but who gets knocked down? should be paladin but it is valerie who falls, this seems to be a bug

also "in harm's way gives a debuff to the player" on a 6 second basis, i guess this is meant to show the window for "in harms way",as it may only proc once a turn, however the paladin also gets this "debuff" even if he didnt take a hit, it is also applied even if the guarded target was missed, feat descr. says 1 "succesfull" attack will be absorbed a round, 1 attack that hits the guarded target, not misses
