The change to Supreme Ego will render the keystone useless to Essence Worm users

I'm referring to "Change Supreme Ego to not limit you to one aura and instead give more aura effect based on how much mana an aura reserves."

This will mean an aura gem socketed into an Essence Worm reserves 0 mana, thus not benefitting from the keystone at all.

Currently Essence Worm gives 80% reduced reservation efficiency which translates to 400% more mana reserved, making it pretty much impossible to use any additional auras outside Essence Worm while using one.

Please consider a different balance approach, if needed nuke the boots instead of dealing collateral damage to unrelated builds. This change alone results in a 25% damage nerf to my Indigon Blade Vortex Pathfinder :(

with some investment into mana reservation efficiency the % should be a bit more manageable. Olso we should wait for the numbers, with some luck it will a very nice boost for flat reservation auras.

there is olso this new suport that will replace Mortal Conviction that makes an aura free and prevents you from reserving mana. Not sure how it will interact with essence worm but the mod in essence worm is "Socketed Gems have no Reservation" so who knows may be they work together and you get an extra free aura.

Per the wording on Essence Worm, it should absolutely work together. In fact 2 Essence Worms, that new support, and maybe an Aul's Uprising and you could be looking at FOUR free auras haha...
hopefully this new supreme Ego wont have a cap and get 2 values, 1 for reserving mana and one for reserving life.

AMEN op, finally someone wrote about this. Also no, new support is mortal conviction on a gem and that limits auras to one so it wont work with ess worm.

new supreme ego info is out and not looking good

"The Supreme Ego Keystone now has "Auras from your Skills can only affect you" (previously "Auras from your Skills do not affect Allies"), "Aura Skills have 1% more Aura Effect per 2% of maximum Mana they Reserve" and "40% more Mana Reservation of Skills" (previously 50% more Reservation of Skills). It no longer has "You can only have one Permanent Aura on you from your Skills"."

1% more Aura Effect per 2% of maximum Mana they Reserve means we have to reserve 100% of our mana just to get the old bonus...
but hey it only has a 40% more reservation instead of 50% and no longer limits to a single aura [enter sarcasm] this is a buff!! [/end sarcasm]
