Skills

Death Aura

The Death Aura skill granted by Death's Oath is affected by any relevant support gem that is also socketed in Death's Oath. It does not require the socket to be linked.

Since the skill is granted by the item rather than a skill gem, it is not affected by Empower SupportEmpower SupportSupport
