Auras effected by stat skill?

Wrath is under the Intelligent skill ... so is the damage caused by wrath aura increased by higher intelligence?

same for Dex,Strength auras etc?


or are Dex,Strength just a gem level requirement issue?

anywhere we can find the difference in power of auras by level?

same for spells really ... how much stronger is a level 5 fireball compared to a level 1 fireball?

thanks for your time

No, the damage given by auras isn't directly affected by any stats.

Stats do not directly increase the damage of skills. Strength does increase the damage of melee attacks which can indirectly increase the damage of melee attack skills. Otherwise, attributes are only used for meeting requirements. So having a high attribute will allow you to get a skill associated with that attribute to a higher level and as a result be much more powerful.

Gem progressions are not listed anywhere, currently, but I imagine they'll be posted on this site at some point.

Iron will and Iron grip can also allow you to affect dex and int based skills by increasing your strength as well.


That's right, a high str char can hit harder with spells then a high int one hehe.

Thank you all for your responses


I really enjoyed the limited time i got to play PoE during the Open weekend.
