Life reservation
Life reservation is an method of using life to pay for skills which is usually found on skills with an ongoing effect, such as auras and heralds. A portion of life is set aside as unusable for as long as the skill is active. Having life reserved does not reduce the rate of life regeneration, so it will reduce the time taken for life to regenerate to its (temporary) maximum. Reserved life values are multiplied by support gem mana cost multipliers.
Life reservation is typically used to stack more auras, as players can have auras reserved against mana and life, and is typically used on Low life builds.
