Dark Aura or Weakening Aura

Which one is better? or one is for mobbing, the other bossing? Dark Aura is + % dmg but weakening aura is +pdr?

I would start off with Debuff then after it's applied head straight to Dark or Hasty depending on my situation.

[quote=pikalachu]On bosses like Magnus that reduce your dmg by 50% due to his resistance, debuff aura is much more useful.
From personal experience, when I use dark aura against normal Magnus, I do 15 mils per line of FB.
And while using debuff aura, my dmg gets boosted to 22 mils per line with FB.
And without any aura, I do 13 mils per line with FB.

Debuff aura is much more useful at bosses while dark aura is better for training[/quote]

Debuff is only useful at bosses with neutral resist (hilla, (c)PB, cRA, gollux, empress, magnus) otherwise dark. The only situation in which debuff is better on non-neutral resist bosses is if you have very very low PDR somehow or very very high boss and total damage. Test out your damage on ranmaru, for example.
However, at magnus, drain is a very good alternative as it drastically increases survivability since the recovery isn't dependent on your base HP anymore. (I recover ~12k hp per attack).

I'd say yellow is more useful for training unless you can't OHKO.

I had assumed that the majority of the BaM community scrapped the idea of the aura all together, or did something change?[/quote]
