I feel like this is a very good idea/choice; even though I'd look up for, either a decrease on the 60% auras reservation far further than 50% or new/improved mana reservation nodes. Bring back Mana nodes :) Back to The Melee (Reaving Insight): view-thread/1240462 Fusion Skill Engineering: view-thread/1095291	Posted by jahcinto#3693 on May 11, 2015, 5:26:27 AM Quote this Post

1 generous bitch to support a whole group with prolly 10 auras, nice. Who will go lv 100 in less than 3 days first ?	Posted by Kinokarte#1982 on May 11, 2015, 5:35:12 AM Quote this Post
Having reduced mana has been manadory for most builds for a while now. Glad to see GGG are finally removing it as a required gem. "Minions of your minions are your minion's minions, not your minions." - Mark	Posted by ciknay#1000 on May 11, 2015, 5:40:44 AM Quote this Post
Sorry, but that changes are complete nonsense. You build up pressure for the avereage player by replacing a quite accessable gem by a "only for the rich" gem. You build up slot pressure for everyone (and especially for the average player again), because the reduced mana gem needs 1! slot and set a lot of mana free. Now you should instead spend for evry! expensive skill this 1 slot on your gear - - so for your main attack especially ??? You have in mind, that I should reserve one of thus rare & precious 5 (or if lucky: 6) linked slots for my main attack to a reduced mana gem ???... sorry, but wth ?

so......the solution for auras is replacing a cheap acessible gem for a much more expanssive and time consumming gem?????........this is the dumbiest thing i ever read actually i dont even think auras needs a fix.........if u want to free a socket, just make RM not work with auras and reduce mana reserved to the same amount it would have with the gem.......

There will be other possibilities to obtain necessary DPS and defense, not only from auras. It is good, imo, that GGG prevents having 4-5 auras being mandatory from now. ░░░░░███████ ]▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▂▄▅█████████▅▄▃▂ Il███████████████████]. ◥⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙▲⊙◤..
