    Saving Throws for Some classes

    So I've been rolling up new characters for our initial party and I noticed that cryomancers and pyromancers have -2 to saves vs. fire and cold respectively.  But they both get +2 to saves vs. devices.  So does this mean that if a cryomancer was saving against a wand of fire the bonus/penalty would negate each other?  Or would the penalty still apply?

    "Could you fancy me as a pirate bold?  Or a longship Viking warrior with the old gods on his side?  Well, I'm an inshore man and I'm nobody's hero.  But I'll make you tight for a windy night and a dark ride."--Jethro Tull

    Great question! A cryomancer would save at +4 vs. a ​wand of freezing, +2 vs. a wand of paralysis, and ±0 vs. a wand of fireballs​.
