Title: Which aura items look best on what heroes?
Post by: Dovekie on October 18, 2016, 02:30:45 PM
We often focus on unimportant things much too frequently, like politics and season finals, resulting in us ignoring the important questions like which blade master name is best or which hero looks best under what aura.

Now I understand there are multiple schools of thought, however, many combinations are hard to deny.

After careful study and close inspection, I've discovered a few points.
1. Heroes with small collision size often are excellent candidates
2. There are definitely exceptions to the aforementioned rule
3. Some heroes only look good after "aura stacking".  Aura stacking involves putting multiple auras on a single hero in order to make that hero look better.  As a secondary benefit, you also get the effects the auras provide.
4. Aura strength doesn't always correspond to what aura looks best, but chat can always be used as a tool to offset this.

I assert that these are among the best:

God Tier:
Warden + Legion Doom Horn: Easily the best looking in the entire game, no challenge.  This really brings out the Warden's dark side that we don't get to visually see.

Top Tier:
Dread Lord + Command Aura: Makes the DL and the army he commands quite intimidating, especially at high level with dual aura.
Mountain King + Ancient Janggo of Endurance: Solidifies the the MK as true king under the Mountain.  Can be swapped with Scourge Bone Chimes if going for Dark Iron Dwarf effect.
Tauren Chieftan + Alleria's Flute of Accuracy: This makes the TC look more like a good paladin that fights for the light.
Priestess of the Moon + 3 aura items: Usually you put command + unholy + endurance on her, combined with her native aura. This makes her quite scary, often hidden under the shade of many chimeras.

Other good ones:
Dark Ranger + Legion Doom Horn
Lich + Kadgar's Pipe of Insight
Blade Master + Janggo of Endurance
(rarely seen phenomenon)

What am I missing?

Death Knight with Unholy Aura and 5 Legion Doom Horns. Mass swirling madness.
Also, Devotion Aura is one of the most beautiful auras in the game, looks good on anything.
Another cool one would be Vampiric Aura with Brilliance Aura if the pulses overlap, I don't know if they do.
Also, KotG with Trueshot Aura, and Pit Lord with Vampiric Aura.

Can someone make some fashion catalogue with each hero wearing each aura?
