    The aura user is a support focus build which maximizes the use of the support aura skills. The main weapon of this build is the magic device which takes advantage of the expanded range of magic skills and heightened ampr from fast attacks.

    Build Suggestion:
    - 200 - Max INT
    - 60 - 100 VIT (Or adjust as needed)
    - 100+ AGI
    - 50 DEX (OPTIONAL)
    - MTL: Remaining

    You want AGI to remove the attack delay, have sufficient physical attack as well as increase your flee.
    You want INT to be high so that you can still do magic damage from burst damage attacks like finale.
    You want VIT to not die.
    You want VIT to not die.
    You want VIT to not die.
    You want DEX to be able to hit stuff and get a boost to CSPD but this is optional as you can get this from gear which is more efficient.

    Suggested skill trees:
    Magic: [Magic Wall, Magic Burst, Magic Storm, Impact (lv7), Magic Finale, MP Charge, Power Wave, Maximizer]
    Support: [First Aid, Sanctuary, Heal, Recovery, Brave Aura, High Cycle, Quick Motion, Fast Reaction, All Other aura support at lv5]
    Survival: [Play Dead (OPTIONAL), HP Boost, MP Boost]

    Complementary Optional Trees, the number of skill points you allocate to these skills are entirely up to you:
    Blade: [Warcry]
    Martial: [Chakra]
    Halberd: [God Speed Wield]
    Shot: [Quick Draw, Decoy Shot]
    Priest: [Bless, Gloria, Advanced Bless, Holy Fist, Holy Light]
    Guard: [Light Armor, Advanced Evasion]
    Shield: [Aegis, Protection]

    Combo Suggestions:
    1) Magic Wall > Sanctuary (Save) > Impact (Smite)
    2) Impact > Magic Finale (Swift)
    3) Magic Javalin > Impact (Save) > Magic Burst (Swift)

    Imagination required on your part based on adapted optional skill trees.

    Pros of Build:
    - High Evasion + High Flee
    - Placement defenses, party can benefit
    - Moderate Burst Damage
    - Stupidly Big AoEs
    - Arguably the best Support

    Cons of Build:
    - Garbage Damage, reliant on Finale for any real damage role
    - MP costly, recommended to use combo #1 before placing aura skills
    - Requires a tank
    - RNG Defenses (Flee and Evasion only)

    Notes:
    * Can be merged with Bowgun, Sword or Knuckle to create a partial supporter
    * Levitation Effect :)

    Advice, support doesn't need much in terms of matk or damage. The only main use for matk is for a good bless. The main useful auras are just the ones after life recovery and just mp recharge. Also the lower the lvl of the aura skill the less distance it covers and you'll prefer to not be too close. Switch out Dex in favor of xtals like chocolate ooze upgraded and jade raptor upgraded instead for cspd. If you want to use agi, its decent to use for apsd for ampr for MD's. Evasion wise unless its very high idk how well that'll go.

    Don't focused yet on spreading out too much stat points, its still too early for that. Focus on one maxed and one other or divided two others. Vit is good for taking a hit. Agi is good for evading some hits. If you have devil's horns you can get extra dodge and matk from agi.

    Quick draw probably won't help much and seems more like a waste of skill points since you will have mp charge+maximize at your disposal, added if you use agi you'll be able to somewhat recover mp faster with normal attacks. Chakra is ok but you run into the issue of needing 11 skill points just to unlock it for use. Holy fist is mainly only used as a closer for combos and holy light isn't really used. You will only need to add points to these skills at lvl 210 when the last set of skills for the priest skill tree is unlocked. Its nemesis from the predecessor game Iruna. Idk if it'll be as o.p but hopefully it won't be too nerfed. I also find the mp boost skill not needed. I use imiticia and ifrid for their mp boost. You can also use nightcap+chocolate ooze for a really good mp boost. The shield skills however are very useful to have. The buff ones and the ones that can stun are always good to keep in mind to have for a support build.

    And heal and brave aura. And first aid lv7+. The others after brave aura are useful but not required that much. The mp recharge aura is decent but ampr and mp charge+maximizer overshadow it.

    • you can further increase auras range with lvl10 to even maximize it
    • your primary MP management will still be maximizer. ampr will not work at all especially if you want to cast all those auras/support skills for members and with that long cspd finale combo to cut aura mp cost. ampr will take time plus ampr requires hit. with 50 dex goodluck relying on ampr esp on harder boss (NM/event) coz nobody needs a support/tank on normals
    • since the build will need a tank, flee from AGI might not be needed better to distribute that Agi points to somewhere else.
    • Staff is more suitable based on the stats and on the combo skills for additional matk plus will give you the ability of shield as offhand for aegis and protection. the only advantage from MD imo is the high % chance on inflicting ailments and the flying animation (you move like a diety)
    • INT will be useful for a support if it uses Bless/enhanced bless. but if its purpose is to get dmg out from your combo (finale), i guess the build is more leaning toward DPS/semi support that contradicts the title. coz with finale combo castime, it might be hard to maintain those auras running.
    This is just my actual experience based on playing my full support that uses almost all support tree auras. If sometimes i cant even find a room to cast all auras due to the need of recovery, first aid's mp rise, and heal...i doubt i can even managed to cast a combo with finale in it. but then again i can be proven wrong.
