Does anyone know if item-equipped auras like Fanaticism/Holy fire are enhanced by + skill items like sojs or if they have synergys. For example. If I'm a paladin using HOJ Zerker, if I max resist fire, will it up the damage? Please respond. Thanks

not possitive,but i don't think so

Well, when I casted BO from CtA, I got more life when I was using Soj.

I dont think that it does. Your skills werent supposed to gain synergy increases from items. So i dont think items should gain synergy increases from skills. I think That Blizzard has already released something about this already

Damn, I'm so stupid. :P
Of course +to all skills add to BO from CtA.

If you are using HoJ and you max Holy Fire, you only gain the use of the "bigger" aura, which would be the lvl 20 Holy Fire, which you maxed. But since Marrowwalks add to synergy, unless you put any points in Bone Prison, I think that those auras add too, unless you put any points in them.
Like Carrion Wind also adds lvl 21 Poison Creeper synergy, unless you add points to Poison Creeper, same whit any item with skill charges.

No, you aren't understanding me.. Well maybe you are, and I'm not understanding you. Hand of Justice equips a level 16 aura... (of which you can never tell the damage), without putting a single point into my own holy fire spell, and simply using the hand of justice's aura equipped. Can I up the damage of my aura equipped by maxing salvation/resist fire?

I'm not sure about that.

Could be, since it's still a skill you have.

I'm in bnet tech support right now. Lol gonna find out for sure. I will post what they say.

i think i get you. any skill points put into resist fire and salvation are supposed to increase the damage of the holy fire aura due to synergy. but your level 16 holy fire aura is not innate, but due to equipping the hand of justice weapon.

you are wondering if maxing salvation and resist fire would increase the damage of your holy fire aura as well as the fire damage that comes with it, which you cant tell. mmm ... doesnt the additional fire damage that comes from your aura reflects on your character sheet?

does the 16 skill points of holy fire reflect in your skill tree?

i only know that in the case of two identical auras (one from item and one innate), the higher one takes precedence. but if there is only one aura, i *suspect* that syngery applies ... though i might be wrong ...

has anyone verified this so far ?

CORRECT! I'm stil in bnet troubleshooting channel. In about 20 minutes, 2 people have been helped. :mad: Eh... I'll wait :)

why dont you just try this on open bnet/sp?
it worked with exile so it'll probly worth with all other items that give those certain charges.

With exile? The skill isn't a CHARGE, it's an equipped aura.

Well, HoJ's lvl 16 Holy Fire is also equipped aura.

haha ... communication breakdown really ... i think the owner of this thread is really asking about his HoJ's lvl 16 holy fire. mmm ... pls read my former reply and see if you understand what i was trying to convey. :o

I even asked a b.net troubleshooting guy and he said he doesn't know because the developers don't release things like that. He told me to try it out in open. Holy fire does a bonus to your damage as well... so he said all I have to do is quip hoj, and then add something like a 15/-15 bone visage and see if my damage is upped.

i am pretty sure that synergies dont work with items. this was brought up a while back, also synergies dont work if the level of the skill giving the synergies surpasses 20 (i think).

if this isn't what youse are asking sorry.
