Disgusted with Paladins 1.10

[Arutha]

That's a thought I've had a while back.

Every single "aura" skill which affects allies should be made into a "passive" skill (not included would be auras like Redemption or Conviction which don't target allies).

Ie, "Might" should increase damage for the paladin attacks, whatever aura is on.
"Resist Fire" should increase the paladin's fire resistance, whatever aura is on.
Etc...

As you said, it is obvious that each would have to be totally rebalanced. No more +52% resistance for slvl 1. And no +1000% passive damage from pumping might, conc and fanat. (for instance, Might could give +7% damage / slvl and 1% slvl chance of crushing blow, conc could give 5% / slvl chance of uninterruptable attack, 2% / slvl of deadly strike, fanat could give 3% / slvl ias and +5% damage / slvl).
Some would have to be changed (Salvation for instance).

So the paladin himself would beneficiate from every skill point spent on those auras.
But he would choose which aura is on (and thus which bonus he wants to give allies).

But that's just wishful thinking, and I'm not sure it can be implemented in a mere mod. :(
