I noticed that our party's bard had a truly insane Performance modifier after equipping some homebrew magic items. Turns out that each of those items is adding +5 to those skills instead of +1 as intended. I'm using "Bonus - Performance" with a fixed modifier. Why is it adding the bard's proficiency to the bonus?

Can you post the links to the homebrew items? They don't need to be published/public in order for either myself or another moderator to take a look.
Weirdly, as of this afternoon, the skills are being calculated correctly!

Definitely odd - but I'm glad to hear that the issue has been resolved!
I'm having the same issue! Here's a link to the item if it helps? https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/4743792-plugs-guqin
