Changes

An '''Aura''' is a [[skill]], spell or ability effect that works as a continuous [[AoE]] of some kind. The aura usually applies primarily to allies, giving those within a radius a [[buff]]. In some cases an aura can be [[debuff]]ing foes instead. The [[Monk]] is the only Diablo III class with Aura skills. As of the [[2011 Press Event ]] they have been renamed to [[Mantra]]s.

Auras in Diablo III, work a lot like Warcries did in Diablo II[http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=27811631030&sid=3000&pageNo=2#27]; they are cast and then have effect for a duration, rather than remaining active as long as the aura skill is selected in the right click.[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-on-skills-party-help-and-beta-confirmation/]
