In the playtest, we had a level 2 feat called "Machine Magic" which is not present in the Player Core Book, PDF, Nethys, or Demiplane for the official release.

MACHINE MAGIC FEAT 2
GENERAL SKILL

You can craft hybrid items. When you select this feat, you gain
formulas for four common hybrid items of 2nd level or lower.
You must have the Inventor feat to craft hybrid formulas.

Then, in the Inventor Feat from both Playtest and the published Core, it says:

INVENTOR FEAT 2
DOWNTIME GENERAL SKILL
Prerequisites expert in Crafting
You are a genius at Crafting, easily able to determine how things are made and create new inventions. You can spend downtime to invent a common formula that you don't know. This works just like the Craft activity: you spend half the Price of the formula up front, attempt a Crafting check, and on a success either finish the formula by paying the difference or work for longer to decrease the Price. The difference is that you spend the additional time in research, design, and development, rather than in creating an item. Once it's complete, you add the new formula you invented to your formula book.

The GM might allow you to invent uncommon or rare formulas, typically with an increased DC. You need the Machine Magic feat to invent hybrid items and the Magical Crafting feat to invent magical formulas.
Source Player Core pg. 222

So, my question is. Was Machine Magic forgotten in the Core release, or was it removed, but Inventor should have had this reference replaced with something else?

I'm hoping I can get a Dev or Author answer to this as it's caused quite a stir in our game, which has caused some GM v. Players heated debates.

Focus 1
Uncommon, Conjuration, Magus, Teleportation
Traditions Arcane
Cast verbal
Range half your Speed

Description:
You tumble through space, making a short dimensional hop to better position yourself for an attack. Teleport to any square in range that’s within reach of a creature, and then make a melee Strike against one creature within your reach.

He is claiming "Line of Effect" is required for all spells and so since this doesn't list anything outside of "Teleport to any square in range" it is not in line of sight or anything. This would not allow a player to teleport through a closed window that you can see through, a crack in a wall, or a wall of force?

Thanks for your help!

Hello Paizo Team! This is less of a question and more of a request, but having a subscription model for buying the Foundry VTT releases would be awesome!

Foxfire: You gain a foxfire-ranged unarmed attack with a maximum range of 20 feet. The attack deals 1d4 damage of the chosen type (no ability modifier is added to the damage roll). Your foxfire attack is in the sling weapon group. Like other unarmed attacks, you can improve this attack with handwraps of mighty blows.

I have been thinking about this for a bit, but for a Kitsune Monk with Foxfire since Foxfire is considered an unarmed attack that is affected by Handwraps can this be used with Flurry of Blows? I feel like it would, but it's a unique situation and I'm curious about it now.

With the Additions of Bestiary 2 and all the new books being added, when will the Avid Collector Boons be updated for weapons like Wakizashi, Rhoka Sword, and plenty of other new Uncommon Items? The sanctioning character option site doesn't mention the Uncommon items from these books.

I am trying to take advantage of the sales today (I tried earlier in the week, which I guess it was failing then too), but it will get to Place Order in red and then never checkout. I can delete my payments, re-add them, and try different cards, but it will not complete. I see others having this issue and I feel like Paizo may need to upgrade their payment processor :(
