Augmentation Evoker Midnight Gearing Guide

Midnight Season 1 Tier Set Bonuses:

• (2) Set Bonus: Eruption damage increased by 15% and it extends Ebon Might by an additional 0.3 sec.
• (4) Set Bonus: While Ebon Might is active, empower spells deal 20% more damage and cool down 20% faster.

Tier Set Discussion:

Our tier set for this tier helps extend our Ebon Might, both from the 2 set and the faster cooldown on our empower spells from the 4 set. With a large amount of our damage being from keeping uptime on our Apex Talent, these extensions are very powerful. Gameplay with the 4 set feels much smoother as well, which is an added bonus!

You should still prioritise the gear you use by running a sim for your character, but the lists below will give you a good idea of what items are considered good for Augmentation Evokers, and help you target the right content for each piece of loot.

• Overall
• Raiding
• Mythic+

Trinkets for Augmentation are a bit different from other “normal” dps specs. Depending on the damage profile of the classes you want to buff, different trinkets can perform better or worse.

On-use Trinkets

Vaelgor's Final Stare - Grants a large amount of mastery for 15 seconds. Great for a burst with our major cooldown, Breath Of Eons.

Emberwing Feather - Giving us a large boost of haste for 15 seconds is great with our cooldown. The chance to reduce a different secondary stat is not ideal, but an excellent on use option from dungeons.

Passive Trinkets

Shadow Of The Empyrean Requiem - Great trinket that will do passive damage over the course of a fight. And during execute range of 35% health, the haste proc is absolutely absurd. By far our best trinket.

Soulcatcher's Charm - Good trinket from dungeon that just procs a lot of damage, and can be great in dungeons as it jumps to other targets dealing even more damage than it initially would.

Heart Of Wind - Great trinket that can proc Haste. Excellent option that can be farmed from dungeons.

The most efficient combination to go for early on is crafting a 2 handed weapon (Aln'hara Cane) with a Darkmoon Sigil: Hunt on it.

Your 2nd embellishment will be Arcanoweave Lining. Feel free to pick what is your lowest item level item slot for the biggest upgrade for this as long as you are okay recrafting later in the season.

As soon as you get your hands on a good myth track one handed weapon & offhand or two handed weapon, as well as have spare crests for it. You should craft a 2nd Arcanoweave Lining embellishment.

Nebulous Voidcores (Bonus Rolls)

With the launch of Patch 12.0.5, we now have access to Nebulous Voidcores which are additional chances at gear each week. After completing a short weekly questline for Decimus in The Voidstorm, you will be able to purchase 2 Nebulous Voidcores from him a week. You can also use Tokens of Merit from the Great Vault to get 1 additional Voidcore a week instead of taking an item.

After killing a raid boss or completing a dungeon you will be able to roll on loot from that boss or dungeon. It is important to note that raid bosses cost 2 of these voidcores, where dungeons only cost 1 because of the larger loot pool. Using them on a raid boss will award loot of the quality, and using them on mythic + dungeons 10 or higher will award Myth 1 out 6 quality gear.

As always I highly recommend simming yourself for what would make the most sense for you to spend your bonus rolls on. But below I have some recommendations to help you on your journey to achieve BiS.

Ascendant Voidcores

After unlocking Bonus Rolls Decimus will offer another weekly quest. Upon completing this after multiple weeks you will gain access to Ascendant Voidcores. These items drop from all end game content in Midnight Season 1, and are used to upgrade either your weapon or trinkets to a higher item level. This item can only be used once the item is fully upgraded hero or myth track.

Weapons gain the most from item level so make sure you upgrade your weapon first, then prioritize your trinkets.
