In belt of fallen heroes,

[Glewistee]

So the Belt of Fallen Heroes got a significant upgrade. Changes are in bold.

Belt of Fallen Heroes:

This large brass belt has three panels depicting scenes of battle. Once per day on command, the wearer can summon the spirit of a hero of one of the depicted battles. This spirit acts as a spiritual ally, though unlike the force created by that spell, the summoned hero is not entirely mindless. Whether or not the summoned hero is active, it attempts to guide its wearer to victory via telepathic warning and advice, granting its user a +1 insight bonus on all saving throws.

The fallen hero went from a specter that looks over your shoulder to a specter that looks over your shoulder and attacks your enemies.
So my question is; did the +1 insight bonus go from 6 hours a day to on as long as you are wearing the belt?

It says you get the +1 bonus whether the hero is active or not... that sounds like 'all the time' to me.

On the other hand, the ally is now only active for 6 rounds per day... rather than 6 hours. Still more useful in combat, but not as helpful for fetch and carry type tasks.

I think that's a boost.

Can't be. Haven't you heard? Paizo is evil and only issues errata to make older items useless so you have to buy new books.

Only on the forums do you hear Paizo is evil. I don't hear people (even those like me with many of those items) doing anything other than "ok fixing my character to be legal now".

Dunno why you'd take a perfectly nice thread about an item and try to turn it into a thread about bashing people who don't like certain errata.
