Skill Design

This skill first appeared at BlizzCon 2010. There are currently no visuals available for the skill, and no reports on it from demo players. It was revealed in the skill tree.

This is the last aura available to the Monk. Auras in Diablo II are passive skills that simply require being the chosen skill on the hotbar. Auras in Diablo III are active skills that need to be casted, and they offer a short-duration bonus upon casting that varies depending on the aura. It is unknown how long the duration of the aura is, if it needs to be re-casted to keep the effect, and if there are any cooldowns.


Synergies


Development

Mantra of Retribution (as Retribution Aura) was first revealed at BlizzCon 2010 as a Tier VI skill but had never been seen in gameplay.

Before the July 2011 Press Event, Retribution Aura was renamed Mantra of Retribution. Skill tiers were also removed, and Mantra of Retribution became a level 9 skill.


Previous Versions

See Retribution Aura for the original version of this skill.


In Other Games

Retribution Aura will be a familiar skill to players of WarCraft III and World of WarCraft, which was a skill utilized by the Paladin in those games.

This skill is an updated version of Diablo II's Paladin Offensive Aura Thorns. Thorns only reflects physical, melee damage.
