Post aura rage here. I will lock any other aura thread I see.

Hell i would even pay for a micotransaction that would let me use the old auras vs the new.

Sorry russel but the new auras are just kinda, meh.

Sure I agree auras like determination were just too big and shiny, but auras like grace and clarity were very appealing and worked very well with the environment. I don't understand why u changed those, I expected like maybe slightly darker, smaller auras and not as shiny etc, but this is just not very appealing.

Usually I just go with it, but in this case it's just a plain, obvious and solid mistake. A step backwards instead of forward.

This is really still a relevant issue that people want to discuss.

I did like the old aura's and the look of them.
I didn't suffer any noticable performance loss because of those aura's however....

am i the only one here who thinks recognising aura's has become far easier and more intuitive especially when dealing with large packs or totem invested areas.

If I could have it my way, I'd just revamp them to somewhere inbetween the old and new.

well then there is no reason to bump it if people are actively discussing in it, right?

I'm using a pure physical frenzy/split arrow build with clarity and hatred. The only cool things in my character where my auras, now my skills are boring and my auras boring x2. Time to invest in some nice weapon effect to make more visual appealing.

And it's still on the very first page!

I too would love to see a graphics option to bring the old auras back.

I vote for graphics option for old auras as well, and I think auras on player should be less intense and smaller and on party members / minions it should be 38% smaller and not a bunch of circles, it would be nice to see a newly designed determination that's not so distracting

Any official words on whether a graphical option for old auras will be considered at all?

And what exactly is the rationale behind the aura change? Is it for performance enhancement or just a so call "graphical improvement"? If it's the former, I certainly didn't notice much difference (mostly solo). If it is for the latter, then the new auras failed horribly. This is a giant step backwards in terms of look and style for POE. I really cant stand the look of the new auras :(
