Understand Stand United
Useful when…
- Choose it for a squad Aura setup when the listed armor increase is useful.
- Rank it further when the larger squad bonus is worth the increasing fusion cost.
What does the Aura provide?
Stand United is a Vazarin polarity Aura. It gives the squad +4% Armor at rank 0, +17% at rank 3, and +25% at rank 5. The stated effect is an armor bonus for the squad; no additional defensive formula is provided.
Is higher rank worth the cost?
It can be fused from rank 0 to 5. The examples give 20 Endo and 966 Credits for 0→1, 80 Endo and 3,864 Credits for 2→3, and 320 Endo and 15,456 Credits for 4→5. Rank increases the squad armor bonus, while costs rise substantially; weigh that benefit against other Aura priorities.
How do the compared Auras differ?
Dead Eye boosts sniper rifle damage. Dreamer's Bond provides energy and health regeneration. Empowered Blades adds status chance and status damage on heavy attacks while costing shields per hit. These effects have distinct purposes and conditions; Stand United instead supplies the squad armor increase.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Its benefit is armor, so it does not directly provide the damage or regeneration described by the compared Auras.
- Higher ranks require progressively more Endo and Credits.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Reading the +25% squad armor bonus as damage reduction; no such conversion is stated.
- Ignoring the squad-wide scope when evaluating its effect.
