Go read them yourself if you'd like; I've provided page references upthread.
That's why you add Area Effect, allowing you to get range on your normally reach C aura. This is not only on Pyramid, but on Power ups 4: Enhancements too, where they reprint Aura of Power.

Aura is necessary to turn it into a persistent effect that acts without your intervention. Otherwise you would need to attack to have the affliction work. Once you get here, though, instead of the Sense Based enhancement, I recommend Malediction 1 and the sense based limitation. Toss in Cosmic, No Rule of 16, and a high will for extra cheesyness.
