Running 5+ auras

How is everyone doing this? I can't run more than 2 auras without being starved for mana. Is the trick to just not level up the auras much or do you straight up have a huge mana pool. Also, is it better to have the auras that require %mana or have a flat amount?

3 things among others :

1. Discipline aura + Ed battery => more mana
2. Reduced reserved mana nodes.
3. Reduced mana support gem.

4. Blood Magic Gem.

So, what I'm getting is. You can only run 5 auras at max lvl with disc+EB and 1 or 2 auras with blood magic

Summoners and (to a lesser extent) totemers can get EB and use pure ES gear to get a sea of mana. I have one that uses 5 auras (levelled as far as I can), and has room (but not gem slots...) for 2 or 3 more.

Discipline (with Inner Force) + Vitality + Purity + Wrath + Anger with 800 mana left over. (Last I recall...)

Of course, I also get mana nodes like Mana Geyer and the like.

You could run even 4 * 40% auras using your base mana if you take enough reduced reservation nodes

I am a summoner and I did not have it in my plan to get EB. I can run 4 auras right now. All pretty low in level and none of them are %mana based. Barely have enough to cast totems and replenish zombies. Guess I just need more mana on my gear.

I use 6 auras: 2 with blood magic ( clarity / grace ) and 4 as usual wrath / anger / hatred / haste. I have 20 % mana reservation from passives and use reduce manacost gems with all auras. Got about 800 mana total If i remember correctly ( class duelist). I can get 7 but my skill manacost is 170 Mana so i Prefer To Have Some Extra.

i use wrath, hatred, anger, discipline, clarity, arctic armor with just reduced mana gems@1,4k mana
