Do automatons breathe in pf2e?

Yes, in Pathfinder 2e, automatons don't breathe like organic creatures but still require breathable air to vent magical exhaust and prevent system clogs, meaning they can suffer similar effects to suffocation if deprived of oxygen, even though they don't technically "breathe". While they don't need to eat, drink, or sleep, they have a mandatory 2-hour standby rest period, and this "breathing" mechanic for their exhaust serves a similar mechanical function to holding breath for living creatures in hazardous environments, notes the Pathfinder Wiki and Reddit community.
