Skill Design[edit | edit source]

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.

Skill Rank Table[edit | edit source]

Rank 1: Creates an aura that reflects damage back at enemies, dealing holy damage equal to X% of the damage inflicted. When activated, this ability will damage all nearby enemies for X-X holy damage over X seconds.

Trait Synergies[edit | edit source]

No synergies with any of the traits are yet known.

Skill Rune Effects[edit | edit source]

No rune effects for Retribution Aura are known.

Development[edit | edit source]

Retribution Aura was first revealed at BlizzCon 2010.

In Other Games[edit | edit source]

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.
