Whereas casting Battle Command will increase the skill level of your mercenary from his actual skill Thorns, because he has access to that skill itself as opposed to it being given to him from an item. +1 To All Skills +40% Increased Attack Speed +250-290% Enhanced Damage (varies) Adds 5-30 Fire Damage 7% Life Stolen Per Hit +2-6 To Battle Command (varies)* +1-6 To Battle Orders (varies)* +1-4 To Battle Cry (varies)* Prevent Monster Heal Replenish Life +12 30% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items If there were a Synergy for Thorns or we had points in that skill, the aura from our items would benefit from those synergies but if we go ahead and cast battle command from the Call to Arms, this won't change the level of aura that our items are giving us. Now the last thing to note, auras from items do not benefit from plus skills but they do benefit from synergies. So with these two Diablo 2 items, we now provide a level 36 Thorns Aura which because it is a higher level than our mercenaries will take precedence, so now his is completely ignored and mine is the only one that's being applied. But when we take our Bramble armor and put it on, it will read the effective Aura level from all items that we have that are given the same type of Aura, so because Bramble armor and Edge bow are both giving Thorns Aura, their levels add together. It doesn't add them together, it doesn't do some formulation where it takes half of one or half of the other, it just reads what is the highest level Aura currently acted. Because our mercenary has access to a level 29 Thorns Aura and is also being given to our entire party, his Aura will take precedence and this is always true. We are providing a level 15 Thorns Aura to your entire party.

How different auras are available all stacked together? Here we're going to use the Necromancer has an Edge Runeword giving Thorns Aura as well as Bramble armor giving Thorns Aura compared to our mercenary who also has thorns Aura with just the Edge Runeword on.
