Devastation Evoker Evoker Leveling Guide for The War Within
1.1.
Devastation Evoker Leveling Playstyle
Devastation Evoker Due to the high burst AoE damage Evoker iscapable of putting out, leveling from questing and grouping up large amounts of mobsand subsequently bursting them down is a very quick and efficient way to get through the zones,also having short cooldown defensives that enable you to recover most of your health pool in theform of Renewing Blaze means mass pulling is much less risky than some other specs.
Tag as many mobs as you need to with Azure Strike; once they're grouped, cast a highrank Fire Breath and then spam Pyre, Pyre being uncapped AoE means that no matterhow many targets you pull they will all melt down together.

Gear Options
In most cases, you will want to prioritize item level while goingthrough the leveling process. This means selecting whatever has the highestitem level. There is one exception to this rule: when you havea ring or neck with only 1 secondary stat instead of having 2. In these rarecases, selecting the item with the lower item level is acceptable.
