Expandable Auras
« on: August 27, 2013, 10:58:14 PM »
Is there any way to make auras like those gained from the Dread Necro or Marshal classes affect a larger area?

I think Dilate Aura might help...

EDIT: Also, Expanded Aura of Courage for Paladins...

I don't pee messages into the snow often , but when I do , it's in Cyrillic with Fake Viagra.  Stay frosty my friends.

There is an item in MIC that lets a Dragon Shaman double the radius of his aura for 1 round.  Perhaps just houserule that item to work on any class that has an aura, or craft one specifically for the class in mind.

might be / might not be isn't the same as:
Inspiration shield mod (the bottom one)
http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ex/20070618a&page=4
... includes a 1/day Prayer spell, which can be
reverse engineered off, to save moolah.

There's an Aura +5' feat in CPsi ; it's completely
reasonable that everybody intentionally misses it.


"Best" Aura maker is the Psi9 power Affinity Field.
Throw in Magic Mantle or Erudite StP.  Late Game (snore).

Dilate Aura has the "encounter" trick available.
A skill check can be an encounter
+ skill checks can be free actions

Thanks for the replies.
I don't want a book thrown at me so probably won't try to convince anyone that a skill check is an encounter.
