1 462 viewsAbout the Class
This is a unique ranged support fighter whose primary stat is Intellect. The Augmentation Evoker wears mail armor and uses the magic of the Black and Bronze Dragonflights to empower allies.
A defining trait of the Augmentation Evoker is that most of its effectiveness comes not from its own damage, but from significantly boosting the stats and survivability of the entire group.
Strengths
- In-demand spec, especially for high-end content.
- Huge contribution to group survivability through shields and armor buffs.
- High mobility thanks to Hover.
- Unique gameplay oriented around supporting allies.
Weaknesses
- Low personal damage.
- Difficult to measure effectiveness (standard DPS meters poorly represent the contribution).
- Dependent on the skill of your allies.
- Ability range is limited to 25 yards.

Leveling
Leveling as Augmentation can be slower than Devastation. Your main abilities are Eruption and Tectonic Slam.
It is recommended to level in a group or switch to Devastation for questing, as the support mechanics only fully shine with allies around.
Mythic+ Tips
1
Shattering Star is your passive that grants shields to the group. The more damage you deal, the larger the shields allies receive.
2
Use Time Spiral to track your teammates' burst cooldowns and sync Breath of Eons with them.
3
Fate Mirror can save a tank from certain death — do not forget about it.
4
In keys, Augmentation makes pulls smoother by reducing healer pressure through constant armor buffs and shields.
