Post aura rage here. I will lock any other aura thread I see.

After playing for awhile I think new aura is not that bad- still lacks iconic feelings compare to old ones, but more fit the current aura stacking meta. I think its an overall good solution to temporarily alleviate lag issue.

Like. Unwithstandably terrible. I sersiously hope they redo that one.

QFT.

I agree, purity is god awful. I even tweak my passive tree to grab more elemental resist nodes so I don't have to use purity.

The rest, I'm getting used to slowly. When running multiple auras, I would even said they look cool together (think hatred, anger, wrath, clarity, etc) :)

Yes, please bring back the old aura effects. The game right now is absolutely addictive and fun, but I was quite disappointed when I saw the aura effects being changed to look like small rings of unnoticeable circle around the character. I was watching HEAPS of videos of people playing Path of Exile (For example, Kripparrian) and they had ABSOLUTELY AMAZING aura effects, I was PSYCHED to have some of the auras for myself, but sadly that wont be possible if they've change the graphics.

All I'm asking right now, not from rage, but from a point of view which a majority of the community has, is to either bring back the old aura effects, or at least add an effect that allows each individual player to have the ability to customize their own graphics and such, please consider it.

I only say this and I bet a lot of people will agree with me :

Add some Alternative Auras Visual Effects !!!!

The curent ones are ...well.... not so visual ....the old ones were better...

but I would love to see a few alternative vissual effects for each type of aura so people can pick what they like more...

- better enhancement to the game
- players will love to have more flexibility to their chars visual customization
- more ways to spend COINS !!!! :D

It has been a few months since I last played. Mainly because of the auras. It is hard to believe they are still stale pieces of....

They went from something I feel was epic to something that you actually zoom in to look at, because you cannot believe GGG would take a massive jump backwards.

Who ever put these auras together should be fired for incompetence, laziness, and above all a clear lack of artistic ability.

Thanks :)

I like the new auras a lot better. Mainly because the old Determination looked SO... BAD!!!
Huge clunky shields that covered half your character while orbiting around, wow, just wow! XD

The only old auras i really miss are Haste and Grace, everything else looks pretty good :)

+1 graphics option

Why were they removed in the first place?

They didn't match the art direction GGG wants to go in, cluttered the screen, and caused performance issues.

Just started playing about a month ago, and didn't realized they changed the auras at all!

I just had a feeling that the auras somehow would level up and change in appearance like they do when they had the old auras.

Now the appearance of auras is purely a subjective matter, so in any case please GGG games give us players an option to have the old auras back. They looked awesome!!

Also more awesome-looking micro-transactions!
