Tier Sets

The War Within Season 3 Devastation Evoker Tier Set:

In Season 3 each Hero Talent has their own bonuses, but neither of them change the playstyle of Devastation evoker.

Flameshaper

  • 2 Set: Engulf stokes your Inner Flame, increasing your damage and healing over time by 15% and increasing your chance to gain Essence Burst by 50% for 12 sec. Stacks up to 2 times. Multiple applications may overlap.
  • 4 Set: Consuming Essence Burst during Inner Flame fires an Essence Bomb at your target, damaging nearby enemies, damage reduced beyond 5 targets.

Flameshaper Essence Bombs are a sizable portion of your damage on AoE, but on single target the tier set is quite unnoticeable although it is nicer to have more essence bursts to spend on Disintegrates and Pyres.

Scalecommander

  • 2 Set: While flying during Deep Breath and for 10 seconds after, you command a squadron of 2 Dracthyr who will attack your targets with Disintegrate and Pyre.
  • 4 Set: While your squadron is active, your Mass Disintegrate strikes up to 2 additional targets. In addition, your squadron assists you for 5 additional sec.

Pyres from Scalecommander tier set provide extra burst on aoe, in its current state you should remain flying in breath for about 1.5 seconds for all 8 pyres to hit. Even if you are not fighting 5 or more targets, you will always get full benefit from the 4 set as for each missing target your Disintegrate will do 15% more damage. On a pure single target encounter that is a 75% increase!

devastation evoker Best in Slot Gear

The following list isn’t exhaustive, and will focus on only listing some items to give you a rough idea where to start your gearing journey. There are only very few items that beat out every other item in their respective slot. To get a full list of possible upgrades for your character specifically, I recommend running a Droptimizer simulation for the Raids and Mythic+ Dungeons.

Trinkets

With The War Within there are a variety of trinkets that can work well for devastation. Usually you want to aim for either: 1 on-use and 1 passive trinket or 2 passive trinkets. On-use trinkets on a 2 minute cooldown work especially well since they line up with every Dragonrage cast.

To give you a baseline what trinkets are worth getting your hands on I'll list a few options below.

On-use trinkets

Araz’s Ritual Forge - Grants a large amount of intellect that decays over 30 seconds.

Signet of the Priory - Simple stat stick with a 2 minute on use effect that buffs your highest secondary stat and also nearby allies by the same stat but a smaller number.

Lily of the Eternal Weave - 1.5 minute on use trinket that grants mastery.

Passive trinkets

Azhiccaran Parapodia - very strong trinket which can proc intellect off your damaging abilities.

Ara-Kara Sacbrood - a similar trinket to Azhiccaran Parapodia but provides less intellect .

Diamantine Voidcore - good trinket from raid that can proc intellect. It also empowers your special weapons from the raid making the damage proc do 200% more damage while you have the trinket proc active.

Essence-Hunter’s Eyeglass - a competitive trinket from delves that has a very high uptime crit proc.

Embellishments

The most efficient combination to go for early on is crafting a 2 handed weapon (Vagabound’s Bounding Baton, Charged Invoker) with a Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension on it. Double the bonus by crafting a Writhing Armor Binding on any low item level piece your character currently has, for example wrists.

As soon as you get your hands on a good myth track one handed weapon and have spare crests for it, you should recraft ascension to off hand and still keep the Writhing Armor Binding.

Best D.I.S.C Belt & Miniature Titan Disc Effects

This belt can be replaced as soon as new belts exceed its item level.

Recommended Titan Discs for Devastation Evoker:

When using the D.I.S.C. belt you want to socket it with the Static Charge power for all content.

For more information about unlocking the DISC belt and the different Miniature Titan Disc effects available, check out Method's D.I.S.C Belt Guide.

Reshii Wraps

This cloak is very important as it allows you to interact with certain mechanics in the raid. It can be socketed with Fibers to change what secondaries the cloak has. I highly recommend simming which Fibers are best for your gear.
