What two auras should I run?
I currently have a 6L set up for my earthquake (Earthquake, Added Fire Damage, Less Duration, Melee Physical Damage, Physical to Lightning and WED) and looking for more DPS. Current auras that I am running are Hatred and Herald of Ash. I want to run an additional two auras to gain more damage.

Auras:
- Wrath
- Herald of Thunder
- Herald of Ice

Which of these two would I run on top of my current two auras to get the highest damage for my earthquake?

Herald of Ice + Wrath for tons of ice damage
I'd say Anger/Wrath, anger would work better with Herald of Ash.

How do you curse enemies? Herald of Ice and curse on hit is pretty awesome.
Wrath for shocking enemies if you don't do that already. Shock is too big to ignore.
Don't forget about Haste. Maybe attack speed isnt that great on Earthquake but everyone loves 9% move speed. =P

If crit: Herald of Ice
If not crit: Wrath, Herald of Thunder, Anger or Haste for attack speed.

These people don't get though that your damage comes entirely from the weapon you use. Meaning, however much physical damage that is, then multiplied, then increased, then converted in ways that can repeat the same process to gain extra extra damage. In other words, you already run the damage conversion auras, so what should you do to increase the damage you deal...? Blasphemy, and elemental weakness. Run it as a curse aura, and thank me later.

Read OP post again. He tells us he's already using those two.

Still physical to lightning is more potent with builds such as Lightning strike or static strike to get 100% conversion, using phys to ightning on other skills can kind of cause a bit of bottleneck of dps tbh.

I have read it, just don't understand what OP is trying to accomplish that is all.

I use Herald of Ash and Hatred, but I have like 50 mana left over. How do you plan to add another aura? Add it to your life pool?

The last post before yours is around a year old...

You can reduce mana reservation on the tree, via gear you wear (e.g. 8% reduced mana reserved on an http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Alpha's_Howl ), via gear the gem is socketed into (e.g. "socketed gems have 95% mana multiplier" corruption on chest armour) or with the Enlighten gem, reduce it enough and you can run multiple auras at once.

Yes, it's almost a year old, but it's still relevant when people are researching through threads, so.....
