Each Aura the player has active grants 3% Attack and Cast Speed PER aura to the player and Allies. The 30% damage bonus is not related to the amount of auras active.  It's a 30% flat increase whether the player has 1 or more auras active.  Same with the Resistance bonus.  It's +20% to all Elemental Resistances no matter how many auras are active...as long as one is active.
Each [[Aura]] the player has active grants 3% Attack and Cast Speed per aura to the player and Allies. Despite '''Commander of Darkness's''' description stating simply "Auras," only non-curse auras will work.


NOTE: Despite that the Skill Tree often states "non-curse auras" when it wants to exclude curses, Commander of Darkness is only for non-curse auras.
The speed effects of '''Commander of Darkness''' are classified as an [[aura]] and are added onto the effects of whatever non-curse auras the player has cast. Thus, the effects that are granted can be further enhanced by the Necromancer's own {{c|mod|Aura Effect}} stat, with the resulting effect always being rounded down to the nearest integer. {{sl|Generosity Support}} will contribute its {{c|mod|Increased Aura Effect}} to the total stat of any auras it supports. This is done on a per aura basis.

For example, a Necromancer with six auras active and 50% {{c|mod|Increased Aura Effect}} will grant 4% Attack and Cast Speed per aura ('''not''' 4.5%), granting a total of 24% Increased Attack and Cast Speed. Note the speed is not 27%, as one might initially expect; this is the result of the rounding down per aura. Thus, breakpoints in {{c|mod|increased Aura Effect}} for increased speed are 34% and 67% and 100% for 4%, 5%, and 6% increased speed, respectively.

Commander of Darkness is a Notable Ascendancy passive skill for the Necromancer that grants increased attack speed and cast speed to the user and nearby allies for each non-curse auras cast by user. It also grants increased damage and elemental resistance to you and your allies if they are being affected by your aura.

Mechanics

Each Aura the player has active grants 3% Attack and Cast Speed per aura to the player and Allies. Despite Commander of Darkness's description stating simply "Auras," only non-curse auras will work.

The speed effects of Commander of Darkness are classified as an aura and are added onto the effects of whatever non-curse auras the player has cast. Thus, the effects that are granted can be further enhanced by the Necromancer's own Aura Effect stat, with the resulting effect always being rounded down to the nearest integer. Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Generosity Support" will contribute its Increased Aura Effect to the total stat of any auras it supports. This is done on a per aura basis.

For example, a Necromancer with six auras active and 50% Increased Aura Effect will grant 4% Attack and Cast Speed per aura (not 4.5%), granting a total of 24% Increased Attack and Cast Speed. Note the speed is not 27%, as one might initially expect; this is the result of the rounding down per aura. Thus, breakpoints in increased Aura Effect for increased speed are 34% and 67% and 100% for 4%, 5%, and 6% increased speed, respectively.

The Elemental Resistance and Increased Damage granted by Commander of Darkness is applied only once, and is not classified as an aura, so it cannot be further enhanced.
