Viable builds without auras / mana reservation?
Every build should be running 2 auras, and trying to run at least 3. Auras are too good, I don't like that they're required.

EA explosive arrow builds are best done as bloodmagic.
MoM builds tend to use only clarity/disc or clarity only if using something like acro.. |

" Level70-80 is when you should start transitioning to running auras though, this isn't an accomplishment. |

" I wouldn't say that they're required. Builds that do not invest in aura nodes may find running 2 or more a huge pain because of the lack of free mana. In builds utilizing MoM and wanting to maximize their survivability, running more than clarity may even be undesirable Build of the Week 14

are they necessary ? no...
but do they have a significant impact in terms of character power? oh hell yeah. my hatred aura represents a 70% boost to my dps. that is huge no matter how you look at it Last edited by Saltychipmunk#1430 on Jan 8, 2014, 8:38:22 AM

" I disagree. EA is best left without auras. You are sacrificing a lot of survivability and dps to run auras if you switch. |

" excellent point, I've been enjoying flasks that increase move speed during effect, its excellent for farming (burst of speed in between packs as I regen mana) I enjoy the more total regen, slower regen mod mixed in to extend move speed bonus, and this IS with some mana reserved... clearly the effect is greater without any mana reserved, but even with? I'd rather have this than other mods. |

technically you could get those on granite and resist flasks.
which is why i usually do , resists on resist flasks iron skin on iron skin flasks and if you also get surgeons then flasks will be infinite anyway |

My Blood Magic Groundslam Marauder has no Auras. The ~5.5K DPS from Groundslam and the ~8.5K DPS from heavy strike are actualy enough. Not that great and with AUras he could do much more damage but also not that bad imho. I rather keep my 4.3K Life instead of using Expencive Auras.
