Auramancer

[Winta]

Is this possiple :)?

I just tried an item with an aura on my necro, and it didnt seem like my summons got it?

[Ed from Russia]

Should work fine.

[Mad Mantis]

Yes, it works. It is one of the reasons Summoners are so easy to play.

[Winta]

Ok, thanks guys :)

[Winta]

Ok, i have a few more questions :)

If some item give a lvl 14 aura, will this be + by my items? like if i have 10 to all skills, will this also mean my aura?

And if i have 10 different auras on my equip,they will all have all the auras right?

[tSDt]

I don't think so, since the items give +skills and the aura isn't a skill that you control.

Yes, if you, your merc, or golem, etc. have auras then so should your minions.

(correct me if i'm wrong on anything.)

Also stacking auras is tricky. For example you have a bramble armor (thorns aura) and an Edge bow (thorns aura again). If you give one part to your merc and use the other one on yourself then the auras do not stack. If you put both on your Act 1 rogue then the auras stack and you get a level thirty something thorns aura (same thing if you put both on yourself). Wierd huh?

I am curious to know what equipment you will be using to generate 10 different auras?

good luck and good hunting!

[DeathSpawn]

auras will only stack with they're in the same char.
minions don't get holy fire,holy freeze and holy shock aura

Holy Shock, Freeze, and Fire auras only add damage to the character who has the aura-granting item equipped.

NOTE: The level of the mercenary's aura is effected by both his level and if he has any +Skill items equipped. For a complete list of mercenary stats, go here (http://wreckernl.homestead.com/files/Diabloiinet/CompleteD2Ver110HirelingStats.zip).


* Paladin Shields include the following: Targe, Rondache, Heraldic Shield, Aerin Shield, Crown Shield, Akaran Targe & Rondache, Protector Shield, Gilded Shield, Royal Shield, Sacred Targe & Ronadache, Kurast Shield, Zakarum Shield, Vortex Shield. If it is any other shield, the Runeword will not appear.

Also, note that ALL Paladin shields are capable of having 4oS.

Theoretically, the maximum number of auras a necromancer can have is 8, I think:

1. Your weapon
2. Your shield
3. Your armor
4. Your helm
5. The standard aura of your merc
6. Merc's armor
7. Merc's weapon
8. Merc's helm

A paladin can get another aura himself. An Act III merc could get a shield but would lose the standard aura that Act II mercs have, so this would make no difference.

Would be an interesting puzzle to decide which combination of auras would be best.
