Every veteran Diablo II: Resurrected player knows that moment. You teleport into a fight, your Merc has Infinity equipped… and the aura just kind of stares at you blankly for a second or two before remembering it exists. In a game where teleporting directly into trouble is practically a sport, that delay can mean the difference between smooth monster vaporization and “why am I dead again?”
The FixAura mod for Diablo II: Resurrected finally addresses this long-standing annoyance by tightening aura application cycles so your buffs trigger immediately after teleporting. For Sorceresses, Amazons, Act II Mercenaries, or any build relying on borrowed Paladin auras, this is a surprisingly game-changing little tweak.

What FixAura Actually Does
The mod adjusts the internal cycle timers that govern how often an aura applies its effect. Normally, a Paladin wearing the aura applies it instantly, but non-Paladin users—like Sorcs teleporting with Infinity Mercs—often deal with a brief but noticeable delay.
With FixAura installed:
-
Infinity applies almost instantly after teleporting
-
Aura cycles can be customized per aura
-
“Dead air” between teleport and aura activation is essentially eliminated
-
Builds that rely on aura-procced debuffs or elemental pulses feel dramatically smoother
Even small adjustments—values in the 2–5 range for Infinity—are enough to remove the stutter in aura activation without disrupting overall balance.
Why This Matters More Than It Sounds
Ask anyone who speed-runs, map-clears, or chain-teleports through Chaos Sanctuary:
Aura delay is infuriating.
You land, you wait, you wonder why the pack isn’t melting, and only then does Conviction finally kick in. FixAura removes that hesitation and makes aura-reliant builds feel as fast as they’re supposed to be.
And for characters who depend heavily on Merc auras?
-
Sorceress: Infinity becomes far more consistent
-
Amazon: Faster Conviction uptime during teleport repositioning
-
Zeal Paladin: Improved responsiveness when running hybrid setups
-
Act II Merc: Their passive auras simply feel better and more immediate
This is the kind of quality-of-life tweak Blizzard should have done themselves.
A Word of Caution: Some Auras Might Get a Bit… Spicy
The mod author openly admits they haven’t tested every single aura—and they’re right to be cautious. Adjusting cycle length has potential balance implications:
⚡ Dream Paladin
Holy Shock pulses periodically. Shorten the period too much and suddenly you’re turning the entire screen into cooked demon bacon at twice the normal frequency.
❤️ Redemption
This one fires periodically too. Faster pulses could turn you into an eternal vacuum cleaner for souls. Not strictly bad, but maybe not intended.
🛡 Offensive Auras
Fanaticism, Might, Blessed Aim—shorter cycles could unintentionally buff these beyond their designed power curves.
That said, for normal gameplay (especially Infinity Sorcs), the mod is stable and wildly useful.
How FixAura Performs in Practice
Based on testing:
-
Infinity aura now applies almost immediately after teleporting
-
Delayed Conviction debuff becomes a thing of the past
-
Mapping and boss-running feel noticeably smoother
-
Mercenary aura responsiveness is significantly improved
-
No crashes or instability have been reported so far
Even though the author calls themselves a “newbie,” this is a surprisingly polished utility mod that slots perfectly into any modern D2R setup.
Installation
FixAura is simple:
-
Download the mod from Nexus
-
Place it into your Diablo II: Resurrected mods folder
-
Launch the game with mod support enabled
-
Adjust aura cycle values if you want fine-tuning
If you’re already running other QoL mods, FixAura plays nicely with most of them because it doesn’t overwrite visual assets—just timing logic.
Who Should Use This Mod?
Pretty much anyone using:
-
Infinity Mercs
-
Dream Paladins
-
Hybrid elemental builds
-
Teleport-heavy characters
-
Aura-reliant mapping setups
If the phrase “why isn’t Conviction applied yet?” has ever come out of your mouth, this mod is for you.
Final Thoughts
FixAura is one of those deceptively small mods that dramatically improves how Diablo II: Resurrected actually feels moment-to-moment. No flashy textures, no crazy overhauls—just smoother, faster, and more reliable aura application.
A must-have for Infinity Sorcs, Amazon speed-farmers, and anyone tired of waiting for their Merc to finally wake up and do their job.
