· The 'Sun Ring' effect of the 'Broken Sun Ring' grants 40% bonus damage to enemies within range, with an area of effect that nearly covers the caster's entire field of vision.

· Adding a 50% Aura instead of the current 'Erosion Focus' is more effective for improving DPS.
· Apply the 'Limit' skill to all auras and manage mana consumption using the 'Sealed Mana' node.
