I love the new changes that ANET plans to do about the aurashare trait, but making it only 360 radius seems like a lot of people wont take the trait because you have to literally be ontop of a person for it to activate….and the same goes for elemntal atunement.

So my thought was increase aurashare and elemental atunement’s radius to a 480 or 600 radius that way it is more easily applied and can contribute more to team fights.

Seen as though these are both Grandmaster traits, i want to take them FOR a reason, the reason being for team support, and if i cant support my teammates because the radius is too small, then whats the point? XD

Let me know what you guys think! Cheers!

I agree. I see no reason for it to be 240 radius.. it will only lead to people stacking in corners. I don’t want StackingWars 2

I really hope Auramancer work.

Powerful Aura: Auras you gain from weapon skills are also applied to nearby allies.

And… Auramancers won’t work.

They said in the stream that they are going to change it from weapon skills to any aura you get (i.e combo finishers ect)

I agree. Personally, both EA and Aura Share should be a 600 radius. There’s no reason for does support to be so close ranged, especially now that EA is a GM and competes with Evasive Arcana. At LEAST 480, but either way, both should definitely be consistent with one another.

this would be awesome, so much power from support… but the radius increase would be great too

Yeah, sounds super fun, but having to practically (not literally) melee support onto your allies in a moving environment right now just isn’t fun even with the weapon change. I feel like it’s almost manditory for it to really work out in scenarios that aren’t like PVE or zergs where there are people stacked right on top of eachother. Plus I mean, its still numbercapped, so 480-600 shouldn’t be a problem.

900-1200 on the otherhand, I’d say that’d be far too much. 480-600 feels like it’d be a sweet spot.
