Such an excellent video. Played a couple of seasons back in a day, but im still a newbie. Never knew that auras stack and all that. This season I made 3 characters and for the first time crafter rw like beast, enigma and infinity. Next season I'm going to stick to one main character and max it like your pally in the video! Thanks again
Sweet. I was doing magic arrow with a BO merc using azure and heavenly garb but also wearing a garb myself, so hoping i was getting mercs aura stacked and if he was out of range still getting mine as a back up. Good to get some confirmation it actually worked like i thought it did. Still doing 12-13k sheet magic damage at 8 frames wrecks mobs perfectly fine before auras. Used blessed aim merc for attack rating earlier so didnt get azurewrath bump till late game
TY for this video man- learned a lot. Funny too you mentioned Flamebellows, That is why literally why I am here xD I found 2 so I was curious on my frenzy barb. So they would stack though right? since they are both from gear?
@@benlupkin8659 nope unfortunately not. But +skills will work for any skills GRANTED to you. We call those "Oskills". So for instance CTA buffs are increased by any +skill items, that's why people like to have a +3 lidless shield on when they buff.
Hey, thanks for the explanation! I got an additionnal question. Say a sorceress is using the Destruction runeword, casting a lvl 45 meteor. I'm assuming it's then useless for her to put 20 points into meteor to bump the damage of meteor? Because, it will choose the highest skill meteor. So, if I get a lvl 30 meteor while wearing destruction; useless, correct? If i get a lvl 50 meteor while using destruction, to I get more damage on the meteor procs? I'm guessing not, because it will be a lvl 45 meteor that is casted and not the lvl 50. You following me haha?
The proc is always the level of the spell that it states on the item. So a level 45 Meteor will always be level 45. If your build just wants to proc meteor there is no point in putting any skillpoints into meteor. Just its synergies.
Thanks for the explanation. I am just wondering what pala to make now. I am stuck between this build and the doom/ shattered wall freeze aura build. What’s your views on them both?
I assume you'd self-wield conviction or fanaticism and let the stacked holy freeze aura from gear? I'm sure it'd work! you might not get a high enough aura though to benefit from all the potential cold damage that you otherwise could have gotten from self-wielding Holy Freeze
@@varyktv would you sat that santuray can do more maps and its a cheaper build? I have only been playing for like 3 weeks. I dont have much runes for a expensive build
@@youlan88 yes it does, lots of maps you can do. The build does relatively well with minimal gear, just find as many +skills you can get and use a fast weapon
So after watching this video, I’m just a little confused. Would it be possible to make a triple aura by using hand of justice and dragon, dual dreams, and then having the paladins active aura be a holy freeze
Yep! Since each single aura is following the rules. Holy Shock is coming from a single category (gear), Holy Fire from a single category (gear) and Holy Freeze from a single category (self wield)
It will work, but it won't be as effective as you think. Holy fire damage will be pretty poor with 2 piece only. And besides that, you don't have enough skills to get it all: 20 native aura, 20 blessed aim, 20 salvation, and 3*20 resist auras. And there are only main attack skills and synergies for them.

Dang I learned about the merc synergies... Didn't knew about this one! Glad I stayed and watched
You explained the mechanic extremely well, thank you so much for this

Hahah, you did end up making a video! Thank you, good stuff :)
Been using light merc a week now. I have yet to see him use holy light. He used to cast holy Nova but it seems that was removed this season
Really digging the fire druid with act 4 dark using infinity and im using mangsongs with lower resist

I also found 2 Bing Sz Wang sword. These really got me interested, as they have frozen orb and also reduced cold damage. Thoughts?
Yep they'll stack!
Do +all skills work with auras given by gear, so does using an andys helm with templars up the might level to 10?
