Support should be relevant in poe

D3 has the dh zpds, lost ark has more support options, its best, we can enhance our healing or dps buff.

The link skills were good but, not so when you punished ppl for using them, making them vulnerable instead of strong while trying to help.

I like support now (played paly healer in wow etc). Arpg's are transitioning into mmo play.

Perhaps make a new class, one that has link skills that (connecects to all allies) and lab nodes that promote support. Maybe "while link is active players take x less damage or heal for x"

Aurabots and cursebots are absolutely nuts in coop play already.

This, and: what are you even talking about OP? Supports need to be NERFED in Path of Exile, I don't know what game you're playing if you think they aren't relevant.

Lost ark is not even a really arpg hack and slash to begin with and the game is far away from being like PoE/Diablo ect.

Besides that as already mentioned, aura and curse bots are already a thing. Beyond that there's more options you can build on to support a party with.
