Aurora is a mid-row, buff-giving support. Her passive skill provides her allies with a massive boost in attack speed and physical lifesteal, and this effect can stack, so how best to take advantage of this ability is the key to unlocking Aurora’s full potential.
Aurora’s basic attack and skills are all magic damage-based, so her passive’s physical lifesteal buff is only of use to her teammates. Her ultimate “Dawn Ritual” also needs to be used strategically. If she casts it facing the back row, then it wastes its damage-dealing beam of light, so it still best to face forward and cast it so that she can damage enemies and buff your tanks at the same time. Her green skill “Solar Flare” can also stack a buff on the tanks, and if her blue skill “Dancing Ray” can bounce between your team’s tanks, then the added damage it packs will be used to full effect.
To sum up, Aurora is best used with physical-based, melee heroes such as Spar and Saizo.
