Why exactly is the ascendency change a nerf? Of course u lose like 25% cast attack speed, but instead we gain 30 increased dmg per aura instead of 10. Don't these factors at least balance out in the end?

No , before you got 10%atk dmg per aura so 130%+, now you only get 30% for all your auras.
*Thoughts regarding nerfs*

What about swapping some auras (idk which) for some blasphemy curses? Stacking as many auras isn't as effective, maybe adding curses in the mix could provide something strong?

I made a couple of tri-curse supports and I say yeah, curses provide more damage and safety even now, needless to say after the nerf. But you'll need to rework a passive tree a little bit and go for curse effectiveness instead of, well, whatever this tree is doing.

And going full-meme with lvl 4 enhance + 30% effect helm enchant temp chains is just hillarious.
god damn and here I was finally decided on auramancer and this build when the nerf came... altho new changes to mobs and bosses in maps (high tier = more hp) will probably welcome any ++ dmg but the question is whether it is worth considering monsters have 60% more life just by having aurabot in party (i believe its 60% in 2 man party). did anyone do the calculation yet how much we lost here (based on skill tree points that buff the buff)? Here is what I calculated:
69% inc. effect from passives thus 3*1,69 = 5,07 = 5% atk speed/cast speed + 30%*1,69 = 50,7 = 50% increased damage.
so 5% atk/cast per aura + 50% inc. damage. correct?

If we have victarios and 6 auras in it, does 15% inc. effect apply to CoD too (but only for those 6 auras)? it makes small differences but I am just wondering if its true or not.
Also if the inc. damage is static now (not per aura) does it get bonus from the armor?

at least they kept 20% to all resistances...

Uh, your math is a bit off, it was 5% attack/cast speed and 10% increased damage per aura, so with this 14 aura setup, it'd be 140% increased damage and 70% increased attack/cast speed. So it's a pretty hefty nerf. But not all that bad.

It wouldn't be a bad idea, i know a few bots that run curses. I still will do the 14 aura setup though because they're still keeping the attack/cast speed per aura. So you can still get up to 42% increased attack/cast speed which was the bulk of the dps gain anyways. If you do drop auras for curses it'll probably be purity of elements, determination & grace.

Ignoring the inc effect from passives, we lost 28% attack/cast speed and 110% increased damage.

Also, the generosity onto auras did affect commander of darkness before so either it's fixed now or it'll only increase the attack/cast speed benefit.

that's pretty sweet then. I have a request tho. can you upload your char to Path Of Building? I assume there are massive changes in 3.0 apart from nerf so i'd like to see what it does to our ES.

Been looking for a guardian build but didnt find a good one yet and you need to spam warcry every 4 sec which is a bother :P

Also what do you think about people saying that Necro aurabot is dead coz of nerfs and only way now is guardian? I'd probably consider dropping 2 auras for curses (TC+Enfeeble might add ton of survivability and we lose few %atk speed).
