Overview

Energy Aura is one of the powersets. It is a Brute secondary power set in City of Villains.

You can surround yourself in powerful defensive Energy Auras that can deflect your foes attacks. Like other defensive power, Energy Aura power do not reduce the damage you take, but rather reduce your chance of getting hit by deflecting your foes attacks. Energy Auras offer good defense to all attack types, but offer superior defense to Energy based attacks. However, Energy Aura offers no defense to Psionic attacks.
