When playing [[Elsword]], there will be an additional bar below the mana gauge called '''Way of the Sword'''. This bar has 10 segments that, by default, contain 5 red '''Destruction''' slots and 5 blue '''Vitality''' slots, and depending on your actions, the bar will lean towards one color or 'aura' (from right to left for Destruction, from left to right for Vitality), replacing the other aura's slots. As long as an aura has at least one slot in the bar filled, you will receive special benefits depending on which aura you currently have active. The "Aura of Destruction" is selected by default, and you can switch between it and the "Aura of Vitality" by using the | When playing [[Elsword]], there will be an additional bar below the mana gauge called '''Way of the Sword'''.
