[3.1] SRS LL Auramancer in-depth guide
" A few other things: 1) Get a level 1 clarity. There's no use in having it level 11 - it just reserves more mana/life. 2) Just a quirk from me, but you should look for +16 es and +10 int wondertraps - not expensive, but it'll max out the ES you can get from that slot. If nothing else, upgrade yours to 20% quality. 3) You're missing a chunk of ES from not having 20% quality on your shield also. 4) I get the idea of having an unset ring for the stone golem, but here's the reality - in a 5L, you don't need the +2 levels. You'd be better off getting a ring with either better resists or +ES for survivability. It can still be unset for the gem slot if needed, but that +2 levels isn't helping you out with only a 5L (especially when you use spell each, haha). 5) Your belt could use a better master craft - mana flask regen is pointless. The base belt is good enough for you at the spot you're at though. 6) My last nit-picky suggestion would be your gloves. 170 ES and a single resist is basic at best. I'd suggest grabbing a dual resist pair at 170+ ES and use those extra resistances to upgrade your jewels - grab 8% max ES on any jewel you use (faster cast speed, minion damage, or IIR are good second affixes). At least four of my six suggestions are essentially costless, so I'd do those before anything big. Definitely swap out the spell echo and get the upgraded chayula amulet as previously suggested. At that point you're ready to swap into the chayula weapon. |

@Tahreyn Can you explain more details on what you said United Dreams+shield vs +3 bow?
you said 7link and its equal? how this can be? +3 bow have a good scaling while on the sword you only get a aura and poison only is this enough to match the +3 bow? |

" All really great points, I'm gonna work on this tonight. Appreciate it! |

" I don't know the post that you're referring to, but here's my two cents: 1) UiD lets you use a movement skill, which is a huge QoL upgrade. 2) UiD lets you use a shield, which is a huge survivability upgrade (ES and resists). 3) UiD's aura is more than just an aura - it's chaos damage (which we don't have any of), it comes without using a gem slot (which we are short on), and it's an additional damage aura to replace our purity with once we optimize our gear. It also is easily boosted with generosity. 4) UiD's poison effect is nice, but the 30-40% minion damage AND minion survivability shouldn't be overlooked. So those are just the benefits of UiD. From a personal perspective, I wouldn't go through the hassle of trying to 5 off-color a bow. And if you don't want to craft one yourself, good luck buying one. At the time of this posting, there is only five 6L +3 fire bows on poe.trade that match our socket coloring needs, and the cheapest is at 8ex. You can get a UiD for almost half the cost.... UiD gives so many benefits beyond just pure damage (movement, survivability, cost savings, ease of obtainment, etc.) that I can't ever imagine it making sense to use a +3 bow unless you're trying to min/max the hell out of a niche part of this build.
