Races & Racials

Dracthyr is the most popular race for Devastation Evoker at 100%.

Dracthyr at 100% usage is a clear favorite, largely thanks to Tail Swipe, which knocks all enemies within 6 yards into the air as an AoE interrupt.

Gear Strategy

The preferred secondary stats are Haste and Versatility, with Mastery as a third option. Since the item level of PvP gear scales in PvP, the real gearing decision comes down to picking the right items for these stats.

The full 4-piece tier set (Livery of the Black Talon) is standard for Devastation Evoker. Both the 2-piece and 4-piece bonuses are active.

Top players are doubling up on Arcanoweave Lining for both embellishment slots.

The most popular bloodstone is Cognitive Heliotrope (42%), and the most common secondary gem is Flawless Quick Lapis (28%).
