  • Blessing support allows these builds to have up to 4 auras without permanently reserving any mana, so long as they are recast when their duration expires.
  • Increasing the duration will make the recasting of auras occur less often.
  • Increasing the duration will increase the time that the mana is considered temporarily reserved also, however the base duration is so low that the difference is negligible.

• Temporary Auras - All socketed auras are temporary and therefore not permanently reserving mana. This allows players to use more auras while under the effect of Supreme Ego.

Drop restrictions
