An Aura is an item that can be bought as part of the Members Loyalty Programme. Activated auras can be purely cosmetic, offer a combat bonus or used to activate a special effect. An aura can be activated by using the “Activate aura” option on an equipped aura. When activated, a glow will appear around the player. The effect has been compared to the appearance of it snowing around the player.
Auras are classified in four different classes, which is shown by the red circles in the ring of the aura. All of the current auras are class 1 except Jack of Trades, which is class 2. It is expected that Jagex will release class three and class four auras in future updates.
An aura offers a temporary effect, which cannot be paused. Removing an aura will stop the effect, and reduce the remaining time to zero. You can check the remaining time left by right-clicking an equipped aura and choosing ‘Aura time remaining’. Also, if the account using an aura is logged out while the aura is activated, the timer will continue to run out.
Auras have a cooldown time, are untradable and cannot be used in PvP activities or Daemonheim.
Auras can be purchased, and replaced if they have been lost, from Xuan. You can find Xuan in Burthorpe near the Warriors’ Guild in Burthrope. An easy way to access him is by using the teleport to Troll Invasion available through theGames necklace.
If an aura is removed or deactivated prematurely, the Cooldown period is that of the remaining duration of the Aura plus that of the cooldown period. For example, if the “Reverance” aura (1 hour activation and 3 hour cooldown) is removed immediately after activation, the cooldown will state 4 hours before you may reactivate. If the aura had 40 minutes left to work, and a cooldown time of 3 hours before it was taken off the player, the recharge of the aura would take 3 hours and 40 minutes.
One the release date of the Auras I used my first 500 loyalty points on the Reverence Aura. I’ve found it extremely beneficial when bossing, especially bandos my curses last much longer and super prayer potions combined with Reverence and holy wrench heal 47 of your prayer points! It’ll be interesting to see what new Auras become avaliable to us in the future.
