Blessed Presence (passive) – Ares gains 40 magical power for each rank 3 aura item purchased from the store.

Bolster Defenses – Ares activates an aura around him that gives himself and his allies additional protection and reduced duration on all crowd control effects.
Searing Flesh – Ares shield breathes fire in an area in front of him, dealing magical damage plus a percentage of the targets health every .5 seconds for 4 seconds.
No Escape – Ares throws chains to all enemies in a radius around him. After 2.5 seconds Ares pulls all enemies to him, doing magical damage and stunning the enemies for a base duration, plus additional time for each enemy pulled.
