Preface
With the Conjoin charm available on all robust bonds, players can now look at their familiar's attributes and skills, and deduce the effects of the familiar's Aura. This page aims to compile a preliminary record of familiar auras, so that with enough data the different types of auras can be distinguished and their effects identified, and articles for each can be created.
Current Conclusions
- Each familiar has an aura that buffs various Attributes and Skills of the familiar.
- Auras are affected by current bond completeness, the type of bond (ie. spiritual germination or other), and the familiar type itself - for example, a penguin and a goose share the bird aura, but it is weaker in the goose who is a more charms-based bond.
- The entries below are multiples of bond completeness, which are then multiplied by familiar type strength and bond type strength. So if you have 50% bond completeness (the beginning of resilient, where you typically first get the Conjoin charm), an entry of 1.5x below means the familiar would get 75 (50 * 1.5) bonus to that stat, then multiplied by familiar type strength and bond type strength.
- The bond type strengths are:
- Spiritual Germination: 100%
- Archsymbiosis: 100%
- Fey Bond: 60%
- Hermetic Bond: ??
- These bonuses cap at 100% bond completeness.
