So Dark Knight bonuses boost the effect of these new auras, correct?

cause Slow Gem just wasn't doing it for me =/

So, do Sloth and Lethargy stack then, since they do the exact same thing? (With Sloth adding gem draws)

Cause if so, that's insane.

Auras don't stack.

I'm using the lvl 74 Devampiric Auras and they seem to be taking mana and energy away from me rather than giving it to me from the damage i receive???

The mana/energy vampirism runes and devampirism gems are not working as intended currently, there will be a patch shortly to fix them.

So since these auras, like Slow Gem, appear over the mobs, themselves, does Cnc have any role in how often they connect in order to release their effects?

Most likely, my aura has been resisted only once, but since it continues to put out its effect once in play, that soon changed.

I think CNC has the opposite effect on these gems.

Can we get actual confirmation from Jeff/Glitchless that Lethargy and Sloth stack? And also do they stack w/ 25 quiver proc?

Everything in the game stacks except for the individual effects of auras that do the same thing. They don't stack. Nor do they stack with the epic proc since that is also an aura. The more powerful one will overwrite.

Okay. That's what I thought, but someone said earlier that they did stack, and you didn't correct him. Thanks.

I could have sworn that when I used the blue reflection and the green thorns aura back when my blocking skill was still low, the damage both did added up. Is this an exception then or am I just remembering it wrong?

if you use 2 thorn gems the higher level will override. different gems will add more damage so a blue reflection an aura of thorns etc etc etc.

Lethargy and Sloth aura are different gems and don't add up. And I think one of the pro tips said that the grey anti-magic auras, f.e. anti-psych and anti-blue aura, also don't add up. What I want to know is why some auras stack while most don't.

EDIT: Actually it doesn't matter why. Just tell me which stack. Thorns and reflect, I'm guessing reflect and damage prevention (the white one), any others?
