Draconic Aura[edit]

Dragon Lords gain a draconic aura ability. Select which aura you want as feats and upgrade the effect via Dragon Lord enhancements.

Auras grant morale bonus. This does not stack with everything, especially low level spells such as Good Hope. Upgrades in the Dragon Lord tree eventually help these exceed the bonuses of those spells. Game designers do not intend to change this to a unique typing. DDO Forums
