If I remember right, a couple of years back when they tweaked the auras they made it so that the strongest aura of the same time is the one that takes effect.

Yes except it wasn't a couple of years ago. It was more like 1.5 years ago. It was the same patch that saw AoPM nerfed, thanks to complaints about AoPM + old Imbue + Unleashed Rage (aka. Rage of Primal Majesty builds).
I take this quote from a review that I agree with.
"customisation is so linear; everyone is after the optimal dps:survivability ratio with 0 reliance on other players = autonomous gameplay... Players don't need each other anymore... which in my opinion is a bad thing."

You mean Enrage, since Unleashed Rage didn't exist?

Er, I think it did. It's just that the requirements were much, much higher to unlock it, same with all the other "Ultimate" abilities.
EDIT: Yeah, that seems to be the case. Unleashed Rage was added in early 2010, whereas the AoPM changes, I believe, occurred in mid 2012.
Dasher@Tool-box, donning his armor to prance into battle and blitz the enemy! No joke!
Cupid@Tool-box, stunningly radiant stag ready to play matchmaker between villain and arrow!
Vixon@Tool-box, frighteningly eager to summon despair for his adversaries!
Jebin Zedalu@Tool-box, elementalist weaponmaster. ...One of these things is not like the others!
Yup. :P Before, each of the Tier 4 abilities required... What, 11 powers from the powerset it belonged to? Very, very restrictive, hard to really set up a build for them without gimping yourself. It was recently changed so that you could take them regardless of how your powers were distributed. Just one of them, and I think it still has a level requirement, but ultimately, much lower prerequisites.

I'm very familiar with how easily they are obtained now. But how difficult it was before, and the gimping it forced must be why I was clueless. PvP builds fail if gimped :biggrin:

Does your Champion have a theme song? (share it!)
Got a funny in-game screenshot? (share it!)
Please fix the Overdrive energy unlock! (Should help promote thematic build diversity!)

Uh.. i thought Unleashed Rage was introduced when On Alert went live in June 2012 (y'know, in "mid 2012.") I guess I could be wrong!
Unleashed Rage was around before On Alert, people just started using it more when On Alert hit due to several system changes.
