Chameleon Soul - now also available as a unique Arcane aura support tower.

when you buy Orb of Elemental Infusion on wish.com

This may need some work shopping. Other towers at Rare are giving superior buffs, albeit in a smaller usually in a smaller area. But functionally this tower, for example, is a weaker Geothermal Reactor/Geothermal Refinery, but only for Fire towers, whereas Geothermal buffs every tower. The same is true for Cruel Fire, Wolves Den, even Library of Alexandria provides a superior buff [mechanically not numerically] (creeps in 900 radius giving +30% exp instead of Astral Towers within 500 range getting +50% exp), and comes with additional benefits.

I would suggest that the aura always works, but each aspect requires a tower of an element inside of the aura to turn on it's matching buff. And then you could add a cool effect for having every buff active.

I am aware that this tower's aura strength is comparably weak to other rare towers, but those rare towers have much higher total gold costs since they can be upgraded an thus are stronger in general. My tower also has a large aura AoE which makes its placement much easier. See Dwarven Forgery as another example for a cheap unique aura tower with high AoE.

This tower feels like it overlaps with the Orb of Elemental Infusion in terms of multi-element themed unique support... perhaps it could be a celestial tower? It would be easy to change your arches and obelisks to ruins variants.

Otherwise, I like Patcharoo's idea that having a tower of an element nearby activates that effect for all towers.
