How it plays

• You press Eruption more than anything else — about 21 times a minute — but the damage lands on Duplicate, which is 26% of the total.

Measured on the reference parse below, not a description of the spec — so it changes when the tuning does.

Stat priority

Critical Strike > Haste > Versatility > Mastery

These are not weights pulled from a spreadsheet — they are the live ratings on the reference character this build is taken from, so the order reflects what the best-performing Augmentation Evoker is actually stacking right now.

Talent build

Laid out exactly as the in-game talent UI draws it, hero tree Chronowarden. Lit nodes and gold lines are the path this build takes; everything dimmed was passed over. Hover any node for what it does.

Rotation

Augmentation is measured on other people's damage. Ebon Might uptime is the job; everything else exists to extend it or to fill the gaps.

Openers

Any number of targets

1. Prescience out before the pull, on your two biggest players.
2. Ebon Might so it is running as the pull lands.
3. Fire Breath, then Upheaval.
4. Breath of Eons once the group's cooldowns are up.
5. Eruption to fill, refreshing Ebon Might on time.

Where the damage comes from

Measured on the reference log — a 300-second single-target parse. Worth comparing against the rotation above: the button you press most is rarely the one doing the most.

Where to spend bonus rolls as Augmentation Evoker

A Voidcore pays out an item every time — the question is only whether it is one you wanted. For this build, in order:

Roll Sszorak — 3 of its 3 drops are on your list

Every roll here lands something on the list — this boss cannot miss. In The Venomous Abyss, it owes you legs, feet and ring 1.

Then Nek'zali the Soulcoiler — 2 of its 4 drops are on your list

50% of every roll here lands something on the list. In The Venomous Abyss, it owes you back and waist.

The general principles behind this — knockout protection, why finishing one boss beats spreading rolls, and the crests a roll quietly costs you — are in the bonus roll guide.

Week-by-week route

1. Pre-season: the campaign, a world tour of Mythic 0s for a 292 loadout, and the weekly Spark quest. No Myth crests exist yet — bank the Spark.
2. Week 1: farm +10 keys to a full Hero 3/6 (311) loadout and fill the vault. The first Myth crests arrive, so spend the banked Spark on Axe-Flingin' Bands. Every Hero crest goes into lifting pieces toward 6/6 (321).
3. Week 2: first Voidcore — roll Sszorak, where 3 of 3 drops are on this list. Catalyse the set slots for the 4-set. Second Spark goes to Aln'hara Lantern.
4. Weeks 3–6: one Voidcore a week down the order above — finish a boss before starting the next. Keep spending Hero crests; every slot should sit at 321 by about Week 6.
5. Week 7 onward: two Voidcores a week (the vault and Orin Straylight). Roll Myth-track bases in the set slots, re-catalyse them, and take each to 6/6 for 80 Myth and 20 Hero crests.
6. Late season: everything here caps at Myth 6/6 (334); this list has no end-boss item to chase past it.

The fast variant

There isn't one for Augmentation Evoker. Slate builds its list around the quickest route and Pathfinder around raw power, and for this spec they reach for the same 16 items — so there is no trade to make between finishing sooner and hitting harder. Chase the list above.
