Notes

The in-game description of this passive feature is incorrect, and reads as follows:

Bless grants an additional 1d4 to Saving Throws and Weapon Attack Rolls, and an additional 2d4 to Spell Attack Rolls.

What really happens is that if a caster has this passive feature, creatures they cast Bless on gain two separate conditions:
