Aura Range: This stat directly influences the radius of your auras, which are visual and often tangible fields surrounding your character. These auras can have various effects depending on the specific aura type and your skills/equipment.
Impact on Aura Effects: By increasing the Aura Range, you essentially expand the area within which your aura’s effects apply. This can offer several benefits:
More allies/enemies affected: A larger aura range allows you to benefit more teammates or potentially reach more enemies with your aura’s buffs, debuffs, or other effects.
Enhanced strategic positioning: With a wider aura, you can choose your position on the battlefield more strategically to ensure maximum coverage for your team or maximum impact on enemy groups.
Improved mobility and flexibility: Depending on the specific aura effect, a larger range can even provide additional tactical options. For instance, a healing aura with a wider range might allow you to stay mobile while still keeping your allies within its reach.
However, it’s important to consider:
Diminishing returns: While a larger range is often beneficial, at some point the additional coverage might not provide significant added value compared to investing in other stats.
Mana/Resource consumption: Some auras have active effects or consume resources to maintain. A larger range could potentially increase the resource cost or drain your mana faster.
Specificity of aura effects: Not all auras are necessarily advantageous to spread over a wider area. For example, an aura that applies a specific debuff to a single target might be less helpful with a larger range.
Ultimately, the value of maximizing Aura Range depends on the specific aura types you use, your preferred playstyle, and the overall composition of your build. Analyzing your skills, equipment, and role within the team will help you determine how much priority to give to this stat.
