Yeah i can confirm aura gcs do effect damage.

Aura sorc > auradin^^
But require more fancy equipment to be viable ^^

Wepons:
-20wsm knife: 40ias/fool's/lower res knife(many possible nice adds such as: light dmg, 2 soc, mana, res, base ar, ed)
-20wsm knife: 40ias/fool's/psn dagger(many possible nice adds such as: light dmg, 2 soc, mana, res, base ar, ed) - Psn dagger lvl 8 adds considerable AR bonuses, and can be combined with arach venom for 3-4k psn dmg over 5,2 seconds.
-20 wsm warshrike: 50% pierce, 30ias, physical damage, 50% deadly strike, ctc nova(should spit out pretty many nova vs druids with the pierce and ctc chance until they die from holy shock aura itself.) Ranged option who also can melee good and allows dual dream meanwhile.
-30wsm PB: 40ias/fool's/zeal chargeds/adds
-Passion pb(boring, low ar and ias, but works)
