New aura mechanics

It seems this is stopping Tempest Shield working correctly. We'll have to have TS turn off when changing areas.

Hey peeps.

It seems you can't turn off an aura anymore.

Pressing the skill will toggle it off, and about a second later it'll toggle on again.

Repeatedly toggling will consume all your mana, at which point the aura will no longer turn on by itself, although I suspect someone with really fast mana regen may continue to have the issue if they cannot get their mana below the reserve req...

Tested using a lvl 2 Hatred on Haelthas_Gt.

We're going to fix this by adding a small cooldown to auras now, and that'll be in the next mini-patch.

It does turn off, but because no animation is associated with that, if you're still pressing the button after that it'll start casting again. If you're very quick you can jst turn it off. There'll soon be a short cooldown on using the skill to prevent this repeating.

Until then, you can also cancel the aura by right-clicking the buff icon in the upper right.
