General Information

Covenants, Soulbinds, and Conduits are the most important character customization options in Shadowlands. They have a substantial impact on your toolkit and performance as Preservation Evoker. This page's purpose is to help you pick the right options according to the content you intend to do in Shadowlands.

1.

Dragonflight Disclaimer

Please be aware that as of the Dragonflight Pre-Patch and Dragonflight expansion, all Covenant abilities, Soulbinds, and Conduits will only function while within the Shadowlands. This page will temporarily remain as a reference.

Introduction: Prerequisites

This page assumes that you are already familiar with Covenants, Soulbinds, and Conduits. If that is not the case, we have a number of pages that can help you get up to speed:

Whilst Evokers are new for Dragonflight. Blizzard has given Evokers a Covenant ability — Boon of the Covenants Icon Boon of the Covenants — (this ability is the same for all 4 Covenants) and Conduits.

3.

Boon of the Covenants

The Evoker Covenant ability for all four covenants is Boon of the Covenants Icon Boon of the Covenants.

Boon of the Covenants Icon Boon of the Covenants has two parts to the spell, a passive effect and an active effect.

  • Passive: Increases your damage and healing by 4% (this increases with the conduit Grandiose Boon Icon Grandiose Boon).
  • Active: You are healed for a very large amount and gain 10% Versatility for 12 seconds. 2 minute cooldown.

Due to the covenants having the same ability, you will want to go for the covenant with the best Soulbinds which happens to be Night Fae. Not only do they have access to Dreamweaver, but they also have a strong dash ability in the form of Soulshape Icon Soulshape. Overall, this is not super important and if you prefer one covenant over the other for aesthetic/personal reasons, you will not be at much loss.

4.

Best Conduits for Preservation Evoker

Conduits are enhancements to your character which are associated to your Soulbind. All Conduits are shared across all Covenants for Evokers so it is simply a case of filling out the Soulbind paths.

4.1.

Best Potency Conduits for Preservation Evoker

  1. Grandiose Boon Icon Grandiose Boon
  2. Intense Awakening Icon Intense Awakening or Spark of Savagery Icon Spark of Savagery

When doing Mythic+ or small group content where damage is more important, you will want to choose Spark of Savagery Icon Spark of Savagery. When you are raiding or trying to maximize your healing, Intense Awakening Icon Intense Awakening will gain quite a lot of value.

4.2.

Best Endurance Conduits for Preservation Evoker

  1. Primal Fortitude Icon Primal Fortitude
  2. Circle of Life Icon Circle of Life

While Inherent Resistance Icon Inherent Resistance could be a viable choice, the leech provided from Circle of Life Icon Circle of Life is much more valuable in most situations.

4.3.

Best Finesse Conduits for Preservation Evoker

  1. Graceful Stride Icon Graceful Stride
  2. Natural Weapons Icon Natural Weapons in Mythic+

The finesse conduits are not very impressive and realistically you could run Legacy of Coldarra Icon Legacy of Coldarra over Natural Weapons Icon Natural Weapons, but you will want to take Graceful Stride nearly always as extra movement speed is always helpful.
