Augmentation Evoker DPS Spell List and Glossary — The War Within (11.2.5)

This page describes the essential spells and passives all Augmentation Evokers have at Level 80. It goes over the main aspects of the specialization to help understand the remainder of the guide. It can also be helpful as a quick reference.

If you are leveling a Augmentation Evoker, you likely will not have access to all of the abilities and passives listed here. However, our leveling guide can help specify when you will unlock everything.

Evokers utilize a new Resource called Essence, which regenerates over time at a rate of 1 Essence every 5 seconds.

You spend Essence on Disintegrate or Eruption, the upgrade to Disintegrate Augmentation can talent, to deal damage.

Evokers also have Mana, primarily used for your healing abilities. As Augmentation, you will not need to worry about your Mana except when casting many healing spells.
