So I have been thinking of this for some time, just finally took the time to write it up.

The idea is pretty simple, I think it would be a great addition to the game to add a non-stat slot (meaning no boost at all to stats) for an Aura. I have considered going for certain legendary weapons just for the sole purpose of having an effect on my character, and I am sure others have done the same. The auras could range from slight color glow, to effect auras that leave a trail behind as you run (not footfall trails), and even more noticeable auras (take Juggernaut effect as example).

I would argue that they should be high end items, taking time and collection of both account bound and general materials, maybe even have some account bound scavenger hunt components throughout open world. And very importantly, again, NOT having stats. Please keep this away from the Gemstore as well.

See below: I was one of the guys in GW1 when factions came out that drank the Chalice of Corruption on my necro, and instead of completing the quest to get rid of the debuff of -2 ticks of HP, I left it on my necro because I liked the effect so much.

Let me know if you guys agree or have any better ideas, I just kind of wanted to start the discussion.

I like the idea. It’d be pretty nifty to be able to get auras or other effects like this. Perhaps quests or something from class trainers for Class Specific ones?
