Blood Magic + New Aura

I was not a big fan of aura (i was using 3) thus i was happy with the buff they are getting and planned to use one (Grace or Wrath) which was a good compromise to me seeing they get buffed


But 60% reservation :( ? Does this apply on my base life or total life ?

Cause no way I see using this with my BM and i dont want to end up using a BM gem.... that kind of suck :(

When you see the full changes in the tree, you will probably see using them with blood magic.

There are so many comments of people complaining about Blood Magic. There's a specific notable and many other passives that reduce the mana reservation costs.

Also, there are a lot of new trap passives that increase their damage as well (more than compensating for trap adjustments).

Edit: it's just really amusing to see people say we nerfed what is now an even more powerful build.

If you are implying a buff to Blood Magic, why isn't this mentioned in the patch notes?

Perhaps rewording it to "Active skills use life instead of mana"?
Still, even if you get the auras down too 20%, it will be hard to use more than one Aura with Blood magic. The Blood Magic Gem will remain far superior than the keystone.
As far as I recall, they also said they would implement nodes that allows you to play with full aura as before if you really wanted to, but at the cost of skills points.

It's not a buff to BM directly, it's an additional notable passive behind it, probably reduced aura costs or something similar.

If this is indeed the case, it would have to be INCREDIBLY powerful to enable the player to use even a singular aura with Blood Magic, considering ALL (except Clarity) auras reserve 60% life/mana. This can be reduced to 42,6% with a max level reduced mana gem. So it would have to be around a 50-75% reduction to mana/life reservation to make me even think about using auras with Blood Magic.
f it i'll go low life and get all the auras i need^^
