Damaging Auras need buff !

Grim Dawn Ideas and Feedback

I think damaging Aura skills need buff and if possible more variety. I would love to be able to stack least 4-5 damaging Aura skills to craft a build.

I have been trying a Purifier Using Censure, Flame of Gar’dal and Ignaffar’s Presence.
I like the damage diversity as long there is a shared damage type in those skills, which is fire damage in this case.

Even with 2400% fire damage which actually quite high, the damage of all Aura’s seem lackluster. Especially Ignaffar’s Presence… Reserving 250 energy and 3.5 energy cost for 51 base fire and lightning damage… Are you serious with that?

Censure is mainly good for -Ele res and chance to disrupt skills. For an Exclusive skill damage is still lackluster.

Aura skills are quite useful for proccing ‘Chance on Attack’ but i think overall they need more love and damage increase to make an damaging Aura characters viable.

I don’t think they are meant to be viable sadly

Maybe we could make it so they can accept devotion procs? This seems like a wholly original idea that hasn’t been tried yet for some reason.

Seriously though, have you looked into the Mageslayer set? I haven’t actually tried it yet (still trying to get all the set pieces) but it adds a pretty monstrous amount of frostburn damage to Night’s Chill.
