A few days ago I spit-balled trying the new Master Surgeon + The Druggery. Turns out (thanks to fellow global 1801 lurker Krabybara) that it works!

They were able to sustain RF as well as max life when my flask was active, and unable when not. Sustain did not end when they reached max life, and occurred while Purity of Fire was disabled (just so regen wasn't a confound).

Therefore, here is flask build https://pobb.in/FIxg9W2xl0si!

This build is not as helpful as an aurabot per se, but supplies regen and speed an aurabot may not, while still providing some defensive layers. Plus, I just wanted to see if it worked.

Provides to all party members, screenwide, with full uptime:

---3,615 life/second. (The Druggery + Master Surgeon + A Stupid Amount Of Flask Life Recovery on Tree)

---Frenzy, Power and Endurance charges without hitting enemies (Conduit + Replica Tulfall + Liquid Inspiration, Enduring Composure + hallowed mana flask combo, Proud of this one).

---+81% to all elemental resists, +8% Max res (83% for most party members).

--- ~120% Movement speed (Vaal haste w/ Soul Ripper + Triumvirate, Victario's Flight + Quicksilver)

---NOTE: Still need to test if the new Nature's Boon affects Victario's Flight sharing. Could be under 120% if the 30% does not apply.

--- ~5319k base evasion + 59% more evasion (Grace)

--- ~497 base ES + 67% increased recharge rate

The build itself is also surprisingly "tanky" (for not being an aurabot and not costing 3 mirrors), 72k EHP with Immortal call, 84% all res, capped suppress, anom. pet blood (needed to use life flasks consistently anyways) and very fast, with 215 MS.

Improvements to make:

-Still seeing if lochtonial caress is at all necessary, really any gloves would work with +1 gem, +2 Aoe/Aura. We path right by conduit anyways.

-capping suppress without soul ripper, since it isn't always up.

-catalysting jewellery for res, so we're not sitting at 83% Lightning. Might be able to balance res and get dual aura effect belt.

-Victario's with an enchant modifier/corruption.

-Levelling crucible shield so we have higher minimum power charges or a lower max, thus making tulfall activate more consistently.
