[2.2][HC]Bumsky's Support Guardian for Everyone (13 1/2 Auras Inside)

I really like playing supporter in all kinds of games and since the 2.2 Patch supporting is getting on a whole new lvl.
After looking for days in the Forum for a suiting build i was afrait to find only 2 ways of playing a Auramancer, either you got Blood Magic or you use Victario's Influence so you can run as many auras as you can.
As a Bloodmagic Auramancer you loose 50% of the Benefit from the new Guardian Skill Radiant Faith (in this Case the ES Bonus) on the other hand with Victario's Influence you dont reserve much (or not at all) your health...so once again, you sacrifice the other 50% of Radiant Faith (in this Case the Armor Bonus), so the only way of using your Skillpoints to the Full potentional you need to reserve the most of Life and Mana.
Another Reason why i dislike Blood Magic is that you cant really use Zealot Oath without loosing the abillity to cast spells and if we dont use Zealot Oath we wouldnt really benefit from Guardians Unwavering Faith (0,2% Life Reg per Aura)

- 13 Auras + 2 Vaal Haste/Grace + 1 Vaal Discipline
- Massive Defence Boost
- Endurance Charges for everyone
- Permament 600 ES Regen per Second
- A Little "Emergency Heal" with Enduring Cry and Zealot Oath
- Others will love you and invite you as soon as you get online
- Doesnt need a Chamber full of Chaos and Exalted to work good (Cheap)
- No Blood Magic

- No Life Flasks since we are Low Life
- Extremly Limited Solo Play (Stone Golem can kill most Normal and Cruel stuff)
- You need to like supporting or it will be boring
- It's a Templar :c

We are Running:
Anger
Clarity
Discipline
Grace
Haste
Hatred
Purity of Fire
Purity of Ice
Purity of Lightning
Radiant Faith (one gives everyone Armor)
Radiant Faith (and the other Energy Shield)
Shaper's Seed
Wrath

...

Wait what? But Bumsky, these are only 13, dont Screw with me i got more DPS than you :c

Yeah the 1/2 Aura that gives everyone 15% Attack, Cast and Movement Speed, comes from Guardian's Prayer of Glory and is sadly invisible but has a Uptime of 100%.

105 Points


Finished Tree


I grab Iron Reflexes because i dont want to relay on lucky evasions and get Unwavering Stance to be able to use Shaper's Seed.

For the Ascendancy Points i went the following Route:
Normal: Radiant Faith
Cruel: Unwavering Faith
Merciless: Prayer of Glory

Of course a Shav would be better but i started with a Solaris Lorica without any problems. I was sitting with crappy gear at 4.5k Energy Shield. This isnt the world but it is more than enough to support. The first big item to get as a upgrade is a Shav of course.

Personally i put my Puritys into Alphas Howl for the +2 and the 3 Dmg Aura into Prism Guardian.

Only important thing is that you need to put Anger, Hatred and Wrath into Prism Guardian, else you wont be able to run all 13 Auras

If you handle the costs of making a Int Gear with 2G1R1B then you can link to it as well

"if it fits it sits"

A more DPS oriented Setup i use at the moment since my party benefits heavily from it

A more defensive oriented Setup, you loose some ES reg but gain huge amounts of armor (i got up to 83 reduction and about 30k Armor

(thx to oyvi for this Setup)

Terrible Gear

Leveling as a Supporter is always a problem if you dont want to spend a large amount of Regrets, if you really cant find a Group and you need to lvl solo i would use one the following two ways

Flame Totem


Facebreaker

We Scale the Dmg into Cruel/Merc with Auras since we Buff them anyways but dont be afrait to switch Auras to make your Situation better like dropping a Aura for Purity of Elements when needed.

Bandits


Checklist for switching to Full Support with lvl 68

Check Thekivis Spark Guide, there is a Video with me as a Auramancer in the Video Spoiler

Animate Guardian?
You can run him if you got a spare slot, personally i gave him a armor equip with some chaos res and extra life and switched to determination instead of anger. It can work fine and he even tanked twinned corrupted piety but you need him to be a high lvl. Use him if you can, but dont desperatly force him.

Again, why no Blood Magic?
Zealot Oath!

Enduring Cry Costs at least 17 Mana, so even with 2 -8 Rings you would still need to refill your HP from time to time so you need to sacrifce one potion slot for a health potion.
The reason why i want to run Enduring Cry is because of the Prayer of Glory Buff (which is basically another aura with 15% attack, cast and movement speed) and to get endurance charges for me and my group. Ofc you could switch that to Harmony of Purpose so other can build them up for you but since i sometimes run with randoms when my group is offline, i dont like to hope that someone is doing something for me.
