[2.6] 12 Aura Necrobot: The Legend of Aura

Can I use 14% reduced Purity of Ice Mana Reservation with this setup or I need 20% reduction?

Good guide, but wouldn't it make sense to drop an aura for a curse? It would mean more engaging gameplay and also a good curse is going to help a lot more than a randomly tacked on 12th aura.

It definetely does imo. Running triple curse makes things infinitely easier for your party and I believe, a good offensive curse offers more damage, than extra auras. I didn't try 12 auras, though, so maybe I'm horribly wrong.

If I wanted to add curses to the build, what aura would be the first to go?

Probably Determenation

Are we talking selfcast, or are we talking Blasphemy?

Can this build be played in HC? Because of Blood Magic..

20% - If you go to the 20% PoI link on the list of enchants and change the reservation to 14% it'll show

None of the auras are randomly tacked on, infact it would be preferable to run 14 if it were cheap, Purity of Elements would help people with Choir of Storm and 4 damage auras would be gg.

To answer your question though, I don't believe curses are ideal at all for us, the main reason being that unless you're with a single dedicated carry that you've preplanned with there's a chance that they run their own curses, and more than likely that curse(s) is on blasphemy. This would mean you'd have to spec into a higher curse limit even though you may only be using one or two curses to ensure yours actually applies to enemies. We don't have this problem with auras since the only build that would get this much aura effect to match ours would be another aurabot.

You wouldn't have time to curse anything that isn't a Boss anyway if you're playing with a build that gets buffed well enough by the damage auras ie not degens

I don't understand the question, how would this build having Blood Magic effect being able to play in hardcore?

Is there a big reason you don't pick up barbaraism and juggernaut and put an energy from within in the jewel socket between the two?

Are the nodes just not efficient enough?

people love me :3
build of love
