Description

The reservation mastery "8% increased Damage for each of your Aura or Herald Skills affecting you" is currently bugged and calculating a DPS increase for curse-based auras which do not 'affect you'.

See my post on the officlal PoE forums here with my in-game tests:
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3308443

This causes a significant difference in the POB DPS from that mastery and the actual in-game DPS (it is half as effective as POB shows for my current build)

Edit: My post on the PoE forums got a response from Mark_GGG confirming that curse-based auras should not affect this mastery. It's very easy to test in POB that this is currently not working properly.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by reproducing the reported DPS difference in Path of Building with a curse-based aura and the reservation mastery, then trace the mastery calculation and its existing tests. Done means curse-based auras no longer count as affecting the character while eligible Aura or Herald Skills still do.
