Aura Checks, Which should you use and when?

[Dagradt]

@Community & Devs,

Another question I have been pondering is which Aura Check should you use and when? Here are the following Checks:

1) ActiveAuras
2) Auras
3) AuraState
4) GetAllAuras
5) GetAuraByID
6) GetAuraByName
7) HasAura
8) PassiveAuras

Now some of these allow you to go further and us the "ContainsKey("")" function. Yet still what is the basis of these Checks?

Thank you for your time,
Dagradt

I'm afraid of possible slow downs, so I loop through GetAllAuras once per tick and save the info I want in local vars.

I know this doesn't really answer your question, but I know you get everything, de/buff, pasive or whatever and only returns auras that are affecting the wowunit.
