Devastation Evoker DPS Mythic+ Tips — Midnight Season 1

In this guide, we will talk about getting the most out of your Evoker in Mythic+ dungeons, including the best way to set up your character, how your rotation may change, and tips and tricks for using your abilities most optimally.

If you are unfamiliar with Mythic+ and its associated general mechanics, you can read more about it on our dedicated Mythic+ page below.

To learn more about the Mythic+ Meta, check out our Mythic+ Tier List below.

Due to the current state of Scalecommander being so far ahead in all aspects of DPS, it is HIGHLY recommended that you avoid Flameshaper in keys at all levels. Scalecommander has substantially better Single-Target/Cleave, and only loses out at extremely high target counts.

This section has Evoker-specific tips for dealing with the various affixes of Mythic+. If you want general guides for each of our Dungeons or Mythic+ in general, check out our dedicated page below.

Season 1 of Midnight only has four significant Affixes that offer any kind of counterplay: Xal'ataths Bargains. These rotate every week, with only one of them being active at a time. Many of the Mythic+ affixes, like Fortified or Tyrannical, simply add a passive effect to the keystone, with these four exceptions that are seasonally themed after Xal'atah:

• Xal'atath's Bargain: Ascendant: Three waves of orbs will spawn that need to be interrupted or disrupted. Wing Buffet and Tail Swipe work great here. Deep Breath will also naturally get some when used as part of your DPS rotation.
• Xal'atath's Bargain: Voidbound: A Void Emissary add will spawn that needs to be focus-targeted and interrupted. If you know this is happening, make sure to pool Essence to get ready to burst it.
• Xal'atath's Bargain: Pulsar: Orbs will spawn around players and circle around them. You have 15 seconds to soak all of these to buff your group. Verdant Embrace will instantly jump you to an ally allowing you to soak their orb instantly.
• Xal'atath's Bargain: Devour: All party members will be affected by a healing absorb. You can remove this with Expunge and Cauterizing Flame.

When resolved, each of these affixes provides your group with a buff. Dealing with them correctly will speed up your dungeons and prevent the enemy trash and bosses from receiving the buffs instead.
