Spirit reserves auras in PoE2. More Spirit lets you run more or stronger auras, boosting damage and defense.
Why this matters
Auras are a huge source of power, and Spirit is what limits how many you can run.
Step-by-step
- Find gear and nodes that grant Spirit.
- The Monk has the most Spirit — play it for aura builds.
- Reserve a damage aura and a defense aura first.
- Increase Spirit before adding more auras.
- Drop weaker auras to make room for stronger ones.
- Scale aura effect to make each reservation worth it.
Key tips
- Monk has the most Spirit
- Run a damage and defense aura
- Raise Spirit before more auras
- Aura effect makes auras stronger
Common mistakes
- Running more auras than Spirit allows
- Ignoring aura effect
- Wasting Spirit on weak auras
Practical notes
Spirit powers your auras and is gained from the passive tree, gear, and certain unique items, so path toward spirit nodes early if you run auras. Reserve only the auras you need, because each point of reservation is opportunity cost.
Use a chest or ring with added spirit to fit one more aura. Balance offense and defense auras by your build. A well-budgeted spirit pool lets you run the auras that define your character.
Use a chest or ring with added spirit to fit one more aura, and reserve only what your build needs to function.
