Offensive auras?

Not to mention it would give GGG another avenue to flex their creativity.

Offensive auras plus support gems? Yes please!

Righteous Fire can be considered an offensive aura.

It's an aura that isn't affected by aura stat bonuses.

Also, DoT offensive auras would be a huge nerf to Energy Shields because the constant damage would keep them from regenerating.

I hate to say it, but that is a great reason not to have them. Keep in mind, these auras could make characters who use ES strong in other areas, perhaps enough to make up for it. Maybe that would be a good counter to everyone and their mom saying that ES is the best defense choice.

I wonder if ES and offensive auras could be manipulated to get along.

Could do extreme short range ones like Titan quest.Titan quest had this aura skill that was more deadly than D2 Auras but had very low range.With a low range debuffing the Energy shield would require you to get close enough.

By having it short range it would introduce more tactics like having high defence and high regeneration.
