Heroic Recovery question


Rules Questions

Silver Crusade

Greetings,
I've been wondering about the feat Heroic Recovery, and what effects you could recover from. For example, could you recover from ghoul paralysis, or maybe Ray of Enfeeblement? In other words, clarification on the wording of 'harmful condition' and 'affliction'.
Thank you :)

Heroic Recovery
You can throw off the effects of crippling conditions.

Prerequisites: Diehard, Endurance, base Fortitude save +4.

Benefit: Once per day as a standard action you may attempt a new saving throw against a harmful condition or affliction requiring a Fortitude save that is affecting you. If this save against the affliction fails, there is no additional effect, but a successful save counts toward curing an affliction such as poison or disease. You cannot use this feat to recover from instantaneous effects, effects that do not allow a saving throw, or effects that do not require a Fortitude save.


Basically anything detrimental to you which requires a fort save. That could be poison, disease, etc. It doesn't work on instantaneous effects like Disintegrate, but anything persistent would be fair game.

Thought so, but a second opinion is always welcome, thanks :)
