Interface
Addons Used:
Weakauras: I’m using this addon to track my ability and certain item cooldowns, buff uptime and essence.
Plater: Nameplate addon
Elvui: I’m using this addon to have more options in how I want my interface to look without having to install plenty of other addons.
Cell: As Elvui raid frames have caused issues in the past, I have swapped to using Cell for raid frames, it also offers more customization and spotlight frames are a great tool that makes buffing players in raid easier.
Details: Combat Analysis addon
BigWigs: Boss Timer addon
Method Raid Tools: A very useful addon for anything raiding related from raid cooldowns to reminders.
Talent Loadout Ex: lets you save a lot of different talent loadouts in a very straightforward and clear interface. If you are playing multiple characters of the same class, this addon will automatically share the talent loadouts between those characters.
Macros
There aren’t really any special macro’s you absolutely need for evoker outside of the normal mouseover and cursor macros. I personally like using stopcasting macros for defensives and healthstones / healthpots just to not have to think about manually cancelling a cast, examples for stopcasting macros can be seen in rescue macos.
Prescience Cursor Macro
#showtooltip Prescience
/cast [@mouseover] Prescience
This will make your constant buffing of Prescience on your 2 chosen players a lot easier as you’ll be able to keep the boss targeted while doing this.
Black Attunement Macros
With Black Attunement bringing a defensive aspect to the game it’s smart to use it as much as you can. Binding it in filler abilities such as Living Flame or Eruption makes this really easy.
Important: Note that you will always swap away from Bronze Attunement when casting fillers with this macro.
Black Attunement Living Flame Macro
#showtooltip Living Flame
/cast [nostance:1] Black Attunement
/cast Living Flame
Black Attunement Eruption Macro
#showtooltip Eruption
/cast [nostance:1] Black Attunement
/cast Eruption
Rescue Macro
#showtooltip
/stopcasting
/cast [@PlayerName-Realm] Rescue
If you want to simplify rescuing the same player often so that you don't need to target them every time.
Cancelaura Deep Breath Macro
#showtooltip
/cancelaura Deep Breath
/cast Azure Strike
Makes canceling Deep Breath smoother, replace Azure Strike with this macro and tap it when you want to cancel Deep Breath.
Deep Breath Cursor Macro
#showtooltip deep breath
/cast [@cursor] Deep Breath
When playing Chronowarden, makes your deep breath travel to your cursor’s location.
Rescue Cursor Macro
#showtooltip rescue
/stopcasting
/cast [@cursor] Rescue
Requires you to have already targeted your intended rescue target, will make your rescue travel to your cursor’s location.
Rescue to player Macro
#showtooltip Rescue
/cast [@player] Rescue
/target [@mouseover,help,nodead][help,nodead][@player] Rescue
/stopspelltarget
Will target your currently mouseovered friendly player or npc and rescue them to you.
Rescue yourself to someone else Macro

Spatial Paradox + Time Spiral Macro
#showtooltip spatial paradox
/cast [@mouseover,exists,help] [] spatial paradox
/cast time spiral
Weakauras
When it comes to weakauras there are plenty of options accessible for free on Wago.io.
I’d recommend you to find a pack that tracks cooldowns and buff uptimes in a way that seems intuitive to you. This comes down to a lot of personal preference.
Here are a few excellent WA packs:
- Afenars Evoker Pack: https://wago.io/AU9DH6bo7
- Preheats Evoker Pack: https://wago.io/7Kdv1YBIZ
