Augmentation Evoker Leveling Guide from 10 to 80 — The War Within (11.1.5)

Augmentation Evoker is a support oriented specialisation and as such has significantly lower personal damage output compared to Devastation Evoker. If you choose to level primarily through dungeons this will not be an issue but you may have a smoother leveling experience in the open world via questing as Devastation. If you would like to level as Devastation instead we suggest following our Devastation Evoker Leveling Guide.

In most cases, you will want to prioritize item level while going through the leveling process. This means selecting whatever has the highest item level. When selecting jewellery pieces (Necklace or Rings) it can be worth dropping a small amount of item level to use items without Versatility as the stat is not very good for Augmentation Evoker.

To keep things simple while leveling and learning the spec, use the slider to select your level, and watch as the leveling rotation grows with each level!

• Cast Prescience
• Cast Ebon Might
• Cast Deep Breath
• Cast Breath of Eons
• Cast Tip the Scales if Fire Breath is off Cooldown.
• Cast Fire Breath at empower level 3/4 if Ebon Might is up.
• Cast Fire Breath at empower level 1 if Ebon Might is up.
• Cast Fire Breath at empower level 1.
• Cast Time Skip if both Fire Breath and Upheaval are on cooldown.
• Cast Upheaval at empower level 1 if Ebon Might is up. For AoE you can empower this more so it hits as many mobs as you can.
• Cast Eruption if Ebon Might is up or you have 2 Essence Burst or capped Essence.
• Cast Disintegrate
• Cast Blistering Scales to maintain the buff on the tank, or whoever has threat in open world content (such as yourself).
• Cast Living Flame
• If you need to move whilst casting, use Hover. If you have no charges of Hover left, then use Azure Strike.

To prevent cluttering the guide with a lot of the same information, we recommend you take a look at our dedicated spell page, which will provide you with more in-depth information on Augmentation Evoker spells.

Here, you will find information on the best PvP talents for leveling and doing solo / small group PvE content.

Augmentation Evoker PvP talents do not provide much of a gain overall but can slightly speed up your leveling process by making combat less troublesome.

1. Born in Flame is recommended because it gives you two instant cast Living Flames every time you cast Ebon Might giving you better mobility while leveling.
2. Divide and Conquer deals damage to enemies helping you kill packs of mobs faster as well as breaking line of sight. If you find this PvP talent annoying instead run Unburdened Flight.
3. Obsidian Mettle will allow you to safely cast spells while enemies are trying to knock you back. It can also be useful for picking up Windswept Herbalism nodes.
4. Unburdened Flight can be useful when you are trying to run away from a pack of enemies and not be slowed by Daze.

When deciding which heirlooms to purchase or use, you will want to target items offering Mastery, Haste or Critical Strike Chance. Avoiding Versatility provides the best damage gain for Augmentation Evoker.
