'''Retribution Aura''' is a [[Tier]] 6 [[skill]], which requires a [[clvl]] of 20. This is a [[spirit]] skill.<br>
The Monk activates an aura that reflects damage.

The Monk expends spirit to activate an aura himself and his party that reflects damage back to attackers.
==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. <br><br>
This is the last [[aura]] available to the Monk. Auras operate differently than in [[Diablo II]] where they are not a passive skill 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.<br><br>
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. It was formerly known as [[Thorns]] (with a short-timed [[Holy Fire]]) in Diablo II. The reason for the name change is unclear.<BR><BR>
==Skill Rank Table==
* '''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.
==[[Rune|Skill Rune]] Effects==
* None known.
==Development==
This skill was first revealed at [[BlizzCon 2010]], and it costs [[spirit]] to cast, which is built up by [[combo]] [[skills]].
