# Leer Cast ## Mechanics Equipping Leer Cast applies a special aura buff "[[Damage Aura]]" that affects the player character and nearby allies. This bonus applies to all damage, including that of spells, traps, and totems. Like other similar effects (aura granted by item but not an aura skill granted by item), the aura buff won't be affected by any of the player character's aura bonuses, however, the effects will stack with other party members also equipped with Leer Cast. However, since the item also has another mod <span class="explicitMod">30% reduced Damage</span> the net effect would be 15% reduced Damage for the player character and 15% increased damage for the nearby allies. increase/reduce mods are additive to each other.
