Are warforged PCs affected by Mirror of Life Trapping and other spells/abilities that don't affect constructs?
I have seen in similar questions that, by intent, they can be healed by cure wounds and the like, as they can be affected by any spell/ability that targets constructs or living creatures.
My question is more on the negative side of things. If they are subject to a save that a construct automatically succeeds, do they still roll?
Warforged are just like humans when it comes to how they are affected by spells.: From the "Living Steel and Stone" section of the Warforged race's description (WGtE, p. 67; my emphasis):
While they’re formed from stone and steel, warforged are living humanoids. Resting, healing magic, and the Medicine skill all provide the same benefits to warforged that they do to other humanoids.
But that is the 5th edition description. In 3rd and 4th edition, they were considered "Living Constructs" which meant they were considered both as constructs and as living beings.
