Welcome to our Gearing Page for Augmentation Evoker. This sectionwill cover everything you need to know about equipping your charactercorrectly.

If you have a new piece of gear for which you need gems and enchant advice,you can find everything on our dedicated page below.

With Best in Slot lists being a static sheet of what is potentially best,what is best for you will vary with every piece of gear you obtain dueto the value of the stats constantly shifting as you obtain item level.You can work out what items are upgrades for your character by simming.Please see the page on simming your own character for more information:

• An item that is not strictly ideal in an ideal fully-kitted-outgear set may be a massive upgrade for you right now (high item levelgains on pieces, weapon upgrades, etc.)
• Likewise, an item that is in an ideal gearset may very well bea loss for you right now, either because of an item level difference orbecause you need other items from a BiS list to have it be BiS itself.

*Your second Embellishment is either on your shoulders or wrists. If you donot have the M+ shoulders at 528, then ideally, it should be crafted on yourshoulders. However, in Mythic+ it is not recommended to use Voice of the Silent Star allowing you to use Blue Silken Lining onyour cloak instead. If you wish to use Complicated Cuffs for Mythic+then your second Embellishment must be on your Shoulder slot or Cloak slot.Additionally if you play multiple evoker specialisations you may opt to usethe Adaptive Dracothyst Armguards. In this case, if you do not have theM+ shoulders at 528, then you can use Kazzara's Grafted Companion fromKazzara in Aberrus.
All of these competing gearsets are approximately equivalent.

**All alternative weapons are significantly worse than using Nasz'uro, the Unbound Legacy

Season 4 offers a way to target specific, powerful items with the new Antique Bronze Bullion. Here are the best items to spend your Bullionson in Dragonflight Season 4.

1. Nasz'uro, the Unbound Legacy
2. Seal of Filial Duty
3. Seal of Diurna's Chosen
4. Belor'relos, the Suncaller
5. Voice of the Silent Star (For Raiding Only)
6. Nymue's Unraveling Spindle

Embellishments are additional item effects present on profession gear,either as a baseline (such as Acidic Hailstone Treads) or addedas an optional reagent when crafting (such as Shadowflame-Tempered Armor Patch). Thesegrant a free, additional effect to the piece.

You may only have two embellishments active at a time.

For Augmentation Evoker, all of our primary recommendations arerelatively close together, giving you a choice in which Embellishment to usedepending on the scenario. Use whatever you think is the best for you.

Embellishments Ordered by throughput:

• Blue Silken Lining is an optional ingredient that you can add tocrafted gear to embellish it. This will provide you with additionalMastery while above 90% health. This Embellishment often has lower uptime inprogression content, whether that be Raiding or Mythic+.
  However, even at 40%uptime, this Embellishment is the best-performing Embellishment forAugmentation. There are no good belts in Season 4 for Augmentation from Raid orfor Mythic+ making this a free slot to craft BSL on. Other alternatives includeShoulders (This season's worst tier slot), wrists, or cloak if you do not wish tosacrifice Stamina for Voice of the Silent Star.
• Adaptive Dracothyst Armguards has a chance to proc to provide youVersatility and Critical strike when you take damage or provide you withMastery and Haste when you get a Critical Strike. These perform well in Season4 performing approximately equal to Blue Silken Lining. These are the BiSEmbellishment for Devastation and Preservation making this the idealembellishment to create first if you play multiple specialisations. However adownside to using this item is that you cannot use Engineering Bracers andthus cannot have a battle resurrection available which usually is good utilityfor Mythic+.
• Acidic Hailstone Treads performs very well for single targetdamage scenarios but has a downside of permanently slowing you by 10%. Thesegot nerfed in Season 3, so they are significantly less enticing outside of pureSingle Target.
• Allied Legguards of Sansok Khan is an embellished item that providesversatility to yourself and your 4 closest allies. In Season 4 our Legs slotis no longer our weakest tier piece like it was during Season 3, so these nolonger the best Embellishment for Augmentation.
• Toxified Armor Patch if you are using Acidic Hailstone Treads.This acts as if you have a second copy of the boots, increasing the totaldamage output; however, this also increases the slow to 20% from 10%. Werecommend thinking if this trade-off is worth it for you, and if you decideit is not, then using a different embellishment.
• Shadowflame-Tempered Armor Patch adds the effect for your abilities todeal Shadowflame damage. This can only be added to armor pieces (Not Jewellery,Weapon, or Offhand). This was nerfed in patch 10.2 and is slightly weakernow.
• Venom-Steeped Stompers will provide you with more of your highestsecondary stat and reduce your lowest secondary stat each time it procs.Ideally, this will give you more Mastery and reduce Versatility.

Alchemical Flavor Pocket can be added to crafted items and does notcount as an embellishment.

Elemental Lariat is not worth using on Augmentation as SecondaryStats are relatively weak for Augmentation compared to other DPS classes, andas the stat proc is based on the substats of the gems in your gear, we wouldhave to lose significant Mastery to make it proc Mastery.

Undulating Sporecloak received changes for Patch 10.2 and has beensignificantly nerfed. This item is no longer recommended using for itsdefensive properties and is not worth it for damage either.

Trinkets for RaidingTrinkets for Mythic+

5.1.

Trinkets for Raiding

Each Tier Represents ~0.5% DPS Difference. Anything not listed is more than 2.5% DPSbehind the best-performing trinkets. Trinkets are roughly in orderin each tier. As these are generalized, make sure to sim your own character forcomparisons for more accuracy.

Tier	Trinkets
S-Tier	Belor'relos, the Suncaller Nymue's Unraveling Spindle
A-Tier	Umbrelskul's Fractured Heart Conjured Chillglobe
B-Tier	Vessel of Searing Shadow Ashes of the Embersoul Irideus Fragment Furious Ragefeather Desperate Invoker's Codex Idol of Pure Decay Spiteful Storm Darkmoon Deck Box: Dance
C-Tier	Tome of Unstable Power Igneous Flowstone Iceblood Deathsnare Beacon to the Beyond Neltharion's Call to Chaos Whispering Incarnate Icon - All Allies
D-Tier	Pip's Emerald Friendship Badge Spoils of Neltharus Ominous Chromatic Essence - Mastery, All Allies
E-Tier	Screaming Black Dragonscale Alacritous Alchemist Stone Sustaining Alchemist Stone Jewelcrafting Trinkets

Trinket	Note
Belor'relos, the Suncaller	This is an intellect on-use trinket that deals damage in an areaaround you. This trinket requires you to be in melee range andinflicts a dot on you, which can be awkward, but it deals a lot ofdamage. This is Augmentation's best trinket in Season 4 for Raidingand is approximately 1.2% ahead of all of the trinkets listed in S-Rank.
Nymue's Unraveling Spindle	This is an intellect on-use trinket that deals damage over 3 secondsand gives you a mastery buff for 18 seconds. This trinket is the beston use stat trinket for Augmentation Evoker in Raid. When using thistrinket use it before casting Breath of Eons.
Umbrelskul's Fractured Heart	This is an intellect passive damage trinket. The DoT from this trinket dealsa large amount of damage which makes this good even vs bosses where you cannotget executes on adds.
Conjured Chillglobe	This is an intellect on-use trinket that deals damage every minute. Youshould always be above 65% mana so it will always deal damage. This is weakerthan the above trinkets but still a decent pure single target option in raids.
Tome of Unstable Power	This is an intellect passive trinket that procs to deal AoE Damage. Whilethis is mainly an AoE trinket it does very good Single Target.
Desperate Invoker's Codex	This is an intellect-on-use damage trinket that gets a shorter cooldown foreach second in combat, because of this it is only good on long fights (≥5minutes). Additionally, this trinket does extreme self damage making so werecommend being careful when using it. This trinket is terrible in Mythic+because stacks of hatred reset when leaving combat.
Irideus Fragment	This is a mastery on-use trinket that provides decayingIntellect much like Ashes of the Embersoul. However, this is weaker than Nymue's Unraveling Spindle despite the big Intellect buff due to notlining up well with Breath of Eons. Notably on short fights thistrinket becomes significantly more powerful because you won't lose any uses.
Ashes of the Embersoul	This is a haste on-use trinket that provides decayingIntellect much like Irideus Fragment. However, the weaker stat(haste) and the negative effect on this item makes it worse than Nymue's Unraveling Spindle.

5.1.

Trinkets for Mythic+

Each Tier Represents ~0.5% DPS Difference. Anything not listed is more than 2.5% DPSbehind the best-performing trinkets. Trinkets are roughly in orderin each tier. As these are generalized, make sure to sim your own character forcomparisons for more accuracy.

Tier	Trinkets
S-Tier	Tome of Unstable Power Iceblood Deathsnare Belor'relos, the Suncaller
A-Tier	Umbrelskul's Fractured Heart Conjured Chillglobe Ward of Faceless Ire - Defensive Only
B-Tier	Furious Ragefeather Vessel of Searing Shadow Nymue's Unraveling Spindle Ashes of the Embersoul Irideus Fragment Igneous Flowstone Idol of Pure Decay Darkmoon Deck Box: Dance Spiteful Storm
C-Tier	Neltharion's Call to Chaos Whispering Incarnate Icon - All Allies Pip's Emerald Friendship Badge Beacon to the Beyond Spoils of Neltharus Ominous Chromatic Essence - Mastery, All Allies
D-Tier	Screaming Black Dragonscale Alacritous Alchemist Stone Sustaining Alchemist Stone Jewelcrafting Trinkets

Trinket	Note
Tome of Unstable Power	This is an intellect passive trinket that procs to deal AoE Damage. Thistrinket does incredibly high AoE while only being approximately a 1-2% ST DPSloss for Augmentation Evoker to use. This trinket is exceptional and is effectivelythe best trinket for Augmentation in dungeons.
Belor'relos, the Suncaller	This is an intellect on-use trinket that deals damage in an areaaround you. This trinket requires you to be in melee range andinflicts a dot on you, which can be awkward, but it deals a lot ofdamage. This is still very powerful in Mythic+, but the DoT is oftendangerous leading to less pickrate in higher keys.
Iceblood Deathsnare	This is an intellect on-use trinket that deals damage to a target andencases them and nearby enemies in a web. Dealing damage to webbed targetscauses them all to take damage. This trinket does incredibly high AoE damagebut is approximately 1.5% to 2% behind on single target. This still ends upbeing a very strong trinket in Mythic+ overall, though, because the lower singletarget is the only downside this trinket has compared to Belor'relos, the Suncaller.
Umbrelskul's Fractured Heart	This is an intellect passive damage trinket. The DoT from this trinket dealsa large amount of single-target damage. On trash packs, you will sometimes getexecutes, which helps bridge the difference in damage between this trinket andthe ones above it on this list. The damage done by executes is not tracked bylogs or details since it just outright kills the target so this may look worsethan it actually is.
Ward of Faceless Ire	This is an intellect on-use trinket that provides an absorb to a player on aminute cooldown. This is used purely for its defensive utility in high-endMythic+ content. Players may choose to take the 3-4% DPS hit of using thistrinket in order to better survive keys.
Nymue's Unraveling Spindle	This is an intellect on-use trinket that deals damage over 3 secondsand gives you a mastery buff for 18 seconds. This trinket is a lot worse inMythic+ due to a large amount of its budget being the ST damage it deals whichdoes not scale up with key level; however, since it does purely ST damage youcan use it on a priority target and get most of the value still. When usingthis trinket use it before casting Breath of Eons.
Conjured Chillglobe	This is an intellect on-use trinket that deals damage every minute. Youshould always be above 65% mana so it will always deal damage. Despite beingpure Single Target it remains a decent option due to the consistent prioritydamage you can deal with it.
Beacon to the Beyond	This is an mastery on-use trinket that deals damage every 2 and a halfminutes. This trinket is not amazing due to the nerfs it received at the endof Season 2, as well as having no intellect, but despite that, it may still seeplay in instances like Brackenhide Hollow to help kill totems orother priority kill targets.
Ashes of the Embersoul	This is a haste on-use trinket that provides decayingIntellect much like Irideus Fragment. This item is comparable to to Ashes of the Embersoul.
Furious Ragefeather	This is an intellect passive damage trinket. The DoT from this trinket dealsa large amount of single-target damage. On trash packs, you will sometimes getkill enemies with the debuff, letting you get more procs, which improves thevalue of the trinket.
Irideus Fragment	This is a mastery on-use trinket that provides decayingIntellect much like Ashes of the Embersoul. This trinket provides a lotof Intellect and proves potent if it lines up well with pull cadences. If itdoes not, you would be better off using a different trinket.
Neltharion's Call to Chaos	This is an crit passive trinket that grants a large amount of intellect whenit procs. This trinket performs on average quite well; however, it has a lowproc rate, which makes it feel very hit or miss depending on if you get a procwith the DPS players' CDs or not, as well as increasing your damage taken whilethe proc is active.

The Season 4 tier set is identical to the Season 3 tier set listed below andcan be obtained from any of the Awakened Raids, the great vault or by usingthe revival catalyst.
This tier set does not stack with the Season 3 set nor counttowards 4pc combined. Thanks to this, you will only want to upgrade to theSeason 4 tierset from the Season 3 tierset in one go. If you do not have thefull Season 3 tierset then you can just equip the Season 4 tierset pieces asyou acquire them.

This is the previous tier-set obtainable from Season 3. The benefits forwearing pieces of this set are:

• Evoker Augmentation 10.2 Class Set 2pc — Every third Prescience lasts 100% longer.
• Evoker Augmentation 10.2 Class Set 4pc — Casting Prescience gives stacks of Trembling Earth based on thenumber of active presciences you have, including the one you just cast. Thisincreases the damage of your next Eruption by giving it smallfissures that deal damage and extend Ebon Might by 0.2 secondseach.

Obtaining gear from rated PvP can boost your item level early in the season.

It is essential to note that all of these items have Versatility onthem which is not ideal for PvE content.

For more information on the Gear Upgrades system check out our dedicated pagefor it below.

As with Valor, the cost to upgrade scales differs per slot but now alsoincreases quickly as item levels go up.

Once you have obtained a piece of gear containing a prismatic socket orneeding to be enchanted, you will need to know how to modify it. Details aboutthese tweaks can be found on our dedicated gems, enchants, and consumablespage.
