There's some one's that are just build enabling off the bat. Crab totems and monastery bell come to mind as taking away 100% of the penalty of locking your weapons making those things several times better. You can literally have running pizza totems now. SEAFOOD PIZZA TOTEMS!

If I'm reading these correctly, aura stacking Luminary, where your merc provides you a flat aura that you abuse, is completely untouched. Well, maybe not completely, merc might need some defense.Patch Notes - Content Update 3.30.0 — Path of Exile: Covens of Umbra - Forum - Path of Exile

You missed the same thing I missed
This does cost you some aura effect depending on how far you pushed it last league. I had a 30% aura effect necklace that I would miss quite a lot but whatever. I don't think that in the grand scheme of things it really amounts to anything though. The cumulative bonus from a mercenary is so big that cutting generic aura effect from merc gear in half along with one particular aura isn't going to amount to much. You do have to at least consider resists now as mercs will receive the same penalty based on area that exiles do.

I did Wrath abuse, so Perquil's Toe was required. I didn't use any of the Unique or Pinnacle implicits because I was trying to keep it to "starter", which is 10s of chaos per slot max, Paradoxica being the lone exception. But, either way, good catch, I agree the top end of aura stacking Luminary did get a nerf.
What was the one particular aura that got nerfed?

What I meant was is that with a chest you can get generic aura effect with red influence and then also with blue influence a particular aura. Like this
Going forward you won't benefit from the biggest implicits unless you're actually doing pinnacle atlas bosses. You're going to be losing like 15% generic (non-curse aura) and 30% specific (pride in this case) on the chest. I had a neck like I said and that would have been another 15% to non-curse auras.
I just don't think that in practice it's going to mean anything. I pushed my character way further than was necessary. By the time I was actually tracking this crap down it was fully masturbatory number go up nonsense. This kinda shit -
These could have been better but I didn't see the point.
edit - if the Luminary falls out of the meta to a significant degree cheaper prices on merc gear will entirely erase the nerfs and then some.
